IBS Relief

Take control of IBS so

IBS doesn't take control of your life

IBS Relief, Second Edition is an extensively updated, hands-on
guide to help you manage your symptoms and limit the frequency,
intensity, and duration of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) episodes.
Written by a doctor, a dietitian, and a psychologist, this guide
gives you a multidisciplinary approach encompassing every proven
strategy for managing IBS, including new drug therapies and stress
management techniques.

This book won't confuse you with medical terminology--IBS is
confounding enough. Instead, the book contains questionnaires,
lists, diaries, stress and food tolerance tests, and other tools to
help you determine the pattern of your symptoms, identify triggers,
and take appropriate action. You'll learn how to manage your
problem based on your specific symptoms. Approaches include:

* A three-step process for managing irritable bowel through healthy
eating

* Recommended diet adjustments for the six most common IBS
symptoms

* Three stress-management strategies, including specific techniques
for calming the body, calming the mind, and confronting
stress

* Three steps to controlling pain

This book gives you the tools, the techniques, and the information
you need to make specific lifestyle and diet changes that can bring
real relief.
