I've had IBS for about 20 years, for me the problems surfaced after a year of extreme stress which led me to a depression and permanent sensitive stomach. For me personally I feel it's mostly a stress-related problem because I always "empty everything" if I eat too fast or is exposed to stress. I handle it by eating small portions and trying to keep my life free from stress. But it's a struggle, it's definitevly a life affecting disorder. A lot of planning before doing stuff etc, I bet most people here understand what I'm talking about.
I totally agree because I've noticed that before my symptoms started, I used to dwell on negative things that happened to me in my childhood. I think that by persisting on those thoughts, I've developed hypersensitivity in my nerves, so even a small negative thought can immediately trigger bowel flare-ups. However, when I calm down and have no racing thoughts, everything seems to be fine. I'm planning on conducting the test suggested from the Doc
I agree, my girlfriend of 35 years died, and the consequent stress is still omnipresent 18 months later, and now I have IBS, no diarrhea or constipation but constant achy pain the lower abdomen--CT scans and colonoscopy show nothing is wrong lol
Thanks for saying that. I've always had minor problems with my gut and periodically bloat up, doctors tell me I'm fat lose some weight, yet I'm not fat my body returns to normal size so I know. I worked in a physical job and eat healthy and monitor my sugar intake, I gave up drinking alcohol 20 years ago. Recently at retirement age I decided to move from my comfortable life to an asian country that I'd spent a lot of time in over the years. I was fine up until about 3 weeks out from leaving. There was massive stress getting my home ready to rent, moving out of it, renting it to an unknown stranger, selling most of my things. Then there was leaving my friends, leaving a life I loved, I was comfortable but I also loved where I was going. Then I started questioning it thinking I was making a mistake. On top of this I'd been running a stressful business I had decided to end because of stress. So I arrive in the new country and about 3 weeks in I notice blood in my stools so I went to a doctor. I had recently had a colonoscopy and an ultra scan and I was normal. The doctor said no worries its just damage to intestine lining, he gave me medication and immediately it cleared up. But then I started getting pains in my intestines which would be mild but annoying and be anywhere from my chest down to my bowels, it wasn't localised. After a few weeks it developed to a point I feel full when I eat, I feel like my bowels are still full after going to the toilet. During the day I can feel like I need to go to the toilet yet I can't then it just disappears. The doctor did a stool test and found I had no bacteria problem or blood in my stool. He said I have IBS. I have put this down to over stressing retiring and leaving my country. The doctor agreed. My condition has improved but is still there 3 months in. What this video says about the thin intestine lining makes sense with what the doctors said. Now reading about others with stress problems makes sense also. I've always worried, over think things and stress out.
Everything you described about your patient is me to a T. I am 22 and this is my 10th year with IBS. I have avoided my doctor as they just proscribe me antidepressants which I personally do not believe in. I’m only 2 min into your video and I’m sitting here crying because I’ve never related to someone so much.. I’m not crazy, and I’m not alone. Thank you for your video.
My daughter has IBS, she went on a Fodmap diet and 95% of her symptoms stopped. Primary causes were consuming onions and garlic. She recently discovered She has issues with pasteurized cheeses, but not cheese that has been aged for 60 days. Most Cabot cheeses are aged and imported cheeses are aged. Most American made cheese is pasteurized and not aged, even though the cheese may appear similar to aged cheese, such as cheddar cheese.
Was she mostly constipated? I only go once a week and diarrhea when I drink tea that helps me go or other medications that helps me go but then I only pass gas😒
The Fodmap diet can be found on the internet, eliminate onion and garlic from your diet. Also you should be gluten free, lactose free or dairy free, no chemicals in your diet, no artificial sugars. Clean eating should be your goal, nothing artificial, no package foods, read food labels.
My son has suffered for over 20 years. He would be the REAL TEST for you. We have been thru countless doctors, specialists,even psychiatrists. He is diagnosed with Severe IBS with inflammation of the small and large intestine, also with constipation and diarrhea. He also has food allergies. It has cost him his jobs, his relationships, and from having a normal life. Yet he remains hopeful. It is a very mean disease!
Hi rebecca's, sorry to hear about your son..20 yrs..poor kid!!! Just a thought..I've heard people that have had root canals done sometimes can be toxic to the system. Hope he is better by now.🙏..this video is very old.
The biggest hurdle which only IBS patients has to endure is that, 1. Not many doctors would listen, nor they think with a strategy. 2. Everytime you see a new doctor, it's like completely redoing your diagnosis from the scratch. 3. If you stick with a single doctor you wouldn't know for sure if the treatment is working as optimal. 4. Some doctors assume this as psychological problem. 5. Colonoscopy is the defacto method to check for any single concern. Like sticking a rod into a rubber toy. 6. You never know if there will be a rupture of colon during a colonoscopy. 7. Not every doctor is as educated or experienced. 8. Not many countries has best equipment. 9. Some say it's caused due to historical drug reaction, hereditary, appendix surgery etc. 10. Not many vaccine trails consider for IBS patients. Example: Covid-19 Vaccine has no drug study on this group.. and it's officially stated. 11. At the end you end up becoming your own researcher, nurse, doctor, diet expert etc.
Thank you i knew i wasn't crazy my doctor did a colonoscopy and said i have high stomach acid and give me medication i took then for a year and my stomach is still messed up i tried to tell him i feel like its something do with my digestive track and this is before i knew about ibs he kept shuting me down so i just got up and left and did my own research and found this
@@ashantataylor4026you’re going to have to double check that,most people have low stomach acid and the more older you become your stomach start to produce higher acid levels,most doctors just want to do their “work” but not actually going to the root of the issues,I went through a bunch of tests including endoscopy and everything came back normal and every time I talk to the doctor he literally tells me I don’t know what’s wrong with you. Thanks God I’ve been getting better,drinking lemon water,using ACV in my meals and the heartburn,bloating and acid reflux is gone,expect I have from time to time constipation
I used to have IBS and it has 99% gone, just an occasional flare up. Aloe gel drink and a food allergy test were the two things that really helped me.I found I was intolerant to wheat, oats and dairy (which made up most of my diet!!). Really recommend both these routes if you haven't yet.
It doesn't give you diarrhea if you don't consume the green, stinky fluid that shows up right after cutting. It grows here in the tropics, i cut it from the bunch outside, let the slimy green stinky fluid drain into the grass. By the next day, slice it open, cut out the flesh, put it in a glass jar with fresh water and store in the fridge and sip it daily.
Thank you so much! I've been struggling with ibs for only about 2 years now and it finally got to the point where i had absolutely no control. I'm a truck driver and having an episode on the road is THE WORST. I called my doctor and they didnt dismiss it but are having me try the diet reformation.
Suffering since 2 months.. recovering day by day... Last 3 days completely normal... What I followed is.. 1. Elimination gluten and Sugar 2. Gentle Yoga 3. Pranayam 4. 35 mins walk... Day by day I feel I am improving a little bit.. Dear IBS community, have you ever observed if we are in hurry or if we are supposed to complete any target in time may it be simple cooking or any simple task in time... Due to even simple worry our stomach contracts. And doesn't feel like relax stomach... We have to observe this very carefully,....I think this is the reason.. it starts feeling abnormal,.. For that meditation, stressfree no time bound commitment, slow and peaceful working style.. rhythmic pattern of breathing is very necessary to keep brain gut in sync.. I had this IBS 3 YEARS BACK resolved in 2 months then again 1 year back... Again resolved in 1 month and now since last 2 months... Reaolving slowly .. since last 3 days....❤
@sid6712 I am vegetarian. Curd and homemade buttermilk helped me a lot. I quit wheat and shifted to Jawar, bajara, Raagi. But Now I am eating everything a normal person can eat. I am cured completely.
Thank God' all of these years I thought I was all alone with this horrible disease. My ibs came along at the age of 29, and I'm now 49years old. In recent weeks I've discovered that my symptoms have decreased a whole lot, once I added green leafy lettuce , lots of ruffage ( salads ). And' most of all apples, yes just simple red apples has given me much more time to make it the restroom when I have an ibs attack. Before I've had bowel accidents in my car, even years when I had to ride the bus, I'd be late for work, because I'd have to stop by a mc donalds or any where just to use the toilet. My doctor has prescribed metamucil for me, which works great only if you cut down and or, eliminate sugar and dairy from your diet. But' most of all romaine / green leafy lettuce and apples has worked wonders for me. Good luck to everyone and god bless!!
david banner its not disease it is syndrome which means if u cure ureself from it it will go back to the way it should be , now celiac is a disease because it permanently erodes u're intestine lining and u will never recover from the damage done! so thank god it is ibs and not celiac!
In majority of the cases, the damage done to the intestinal villi by Celiac is reversed once the patient starts a gluten-free diet. The intestinal lining goes back to normal once there is no gluten in the system. So Celiac would be a better alternative to IBS which has absolutely no legit cure or treatment.

+Zubin Sharma In majority of cases where poster posts same thing over and over, it is a case of mindless repetition only, especially when the poster says one disease is a "better alternative" thus makes a mindless and some would say stupid judgment on preference of what disease to have, spoken as someone who does have Celiac.
OMG, I feel hope for myself again. Today I had intense pain all over my body. I need to work is all I was thinking. I picked up my cell phone again and wow!!!!!!! I chose your Chanel. You have given me hope again. Thank you for taking the time out to share. Long story short. I suspected all you stated with my eating etc. I will schedule another visit with my Dr. and or my Gastrointestinal Dr. I pray they don't brush me off as being healthy. Because right now I am not healthy. I can't eat anything.....
Thank you . I feel better already knowing there is a cure and it's not through my head. it totally stresses me out when someone tells me I'm stressed when I'm not.
I have Crohns Disease. I was diagnosed 17yrs ago (teens) I fully believe that you can heal through your gut in this particular situation. I follow a very clean, plant based, organic diet, and keep a food journal of things I might be more sensitive to. I increased my exercise routine & see a complete 180 in my overall health. I shared my views with my gastroenterologist, who has prescribed me some pretty heavy meds w/very harmful side effects, in which he feels I will always have to take because I have a “disease”. I have been told by him that he also knows how “my generation is when it comes to natural healing”. I do feel very blessed when it comes to my disease as I have only had flare ups when I first diagnosed & maybe small issues towards the ends of pregnancies that went away on their own. Thank you for sharing this video & I wondered if you could dive more into Crohns aspect of it more. Would love to hear your thoughts 🙏🏽🖤
Thank you, thank you, thank you. 2 years of horrible suffering. I am on it and will be sharing this with other sufferers of this terrible chronic disorder.
Any doctor that tells you this is stupid and needs to stop practicing. Odds are most doctors who say this are older as well. I'm not saying all older doctors say this, but you're more than likely going to get an older one to make this kind of comment than a younger one. There certainly are mental factors that go into how IBS affects you and when/how it is triggered, but the idea that it's all in your head is absurd. I don't care what their resume and education is, any doctor who says that is not intelligent.
Look for Rachel Greene's UTube videos. She healed her IBS with Ketone supplements. Or look online at a product called IBSolution. Read the testimonials on its website - people are saying it ended all their IBS symptoms.
This doctor has a great understanding on IBS cases and symptoms. I like how he states it’s not a one size fits all examples as something’s may make another person with IBS feel worse. Everyone who has this issue should be testing, and doing everything they can to identify what makes them feel great. Myself having IBS I’ve done a lot of research and his explanations are very clear to what I’ve done for myself over the few years I’ve suffered from this.
33Crazydude IBS is what gives you anxiety not the other way around... The only way to see clearly through your IBS is to follow exactly what he's just said on the video.
+33Crazydude He also didn't mention the pesticides and glyphosates in fruits and veggies, along with GMO's which can blow holes in the gut, even fluoride and chlorine can effect your gut. :P
At the age of 19 I got diagnosed with a dysfunctioning gallbladder. Doctors wanted to remove it (absolute idiots), ignoring the fact I was 19 male and athletic. Saw a naturopath and figured out that I have severe dysbiosis and an overgrowth of a pathogen in my gut. This can give organ dysfunction and a myriad of food sensitivities. I’m glad I listened to my intuition and gave a big middle finger to those almighty medical doctors who said my gallbladder would never work again.
Dr. Hyman is an absolutely wonderful medical practitioner. I have been an IBS sufferer for years and I all the doctors who have treated me in India have just treated me symptomatically. I wish there was a functional specialist in my city to treat my IBS, based on the root cause (s).
Yep. I have had a constipation problem since i was 10 yrs. Old. Im now 75 yrs. Old took laxative for yrs. Exlax. Chocolate candy. Last year i had a colonoscopy. 3 polops removed. It was normal clear lab test. Thank god for that. I to have suffered with i.b.s. didnt know i had it til last year. I was shocked. My doctor was to. This long of constipation issues. So far no diarea or sickness. Im new to this channel.the doctor said . eat all veggies in rotation with salad. Eat fish chicken and red meat in moderation. He also said for me to take one capfule of myralax and one tespoon of benefiber daily. I said this myralax is a stimmulate. He said i need to take it for life. So i said i want to talk to a gut doctor 1st. Find out the root cause of this problem. He said okay. Then call me let me know what he said i said okay. I dont have the money. I do have medicare tho. Medicare paid all of the surgrry. Colonoscopy. My 2ndary to. I didnt kmow it. Thank god. Ive been wanting to get a colon. For 10 yrs. I have a yearly check up to do in a week from now. Cant wait to tell my new primary care doctor about this information. I do have bloating bad. Doesnt make any differece what i eat or when. I stay in misery. Oh. I do think i have a digestive issue to. The food goes down to the stomach and sits there. Doesnt digest. Much. So i have on hand malanta for gas and bloating. I take a half cup of it. Drink a little water after. Going to bed. Or sitting up to. It helps. I drink a 8 oz. Cup of prrune juice 100 percent natural. Not the lite. A big bottle of sunsweet brand amazin. Blue and yellow bottle. 8.00 dollars. 2 hrs. Later it works. Gentle and smooth. Stay close to a restroom toilet. Oh. Heat the cup for one minute. Stir and sip and sip within 30 minutes. Slowly. Keep bottle in the fridge to get cold. Hope this helps. May god bless. Love you all. Love this dr. Also watch dr. Berg.
I'm on Homeopathy now .... still need to avoid chillies ( very hard in India ) too much ginger / black pepper . I've also begun to suspect palm oil , which seems to be a standard item in most processed foods . All the best !!😊😊
@@maureensamson4863 hi I am kavitha I have IBS for past 2 year feeling bad indigestion, constipation, stomach burning age 25 pls any body tell me how we get relief from this problem😔
Winner of a video, I been tryin to find out about "symptoms ibs" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Mackorny Defeat IBS Blueprint - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my brother in law got cool success with it
This is just superb, I have been researching "ibs natural cures" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Mackorny Defeat IBS Blueprint - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my colleague got cool success with it

@Waeve I don't believe that drinking ketones will make anyone be in ketosis but somebody sure is fooled if they're trying to make people believe that. Or somebody is trying to fool people.
Great doctor, hats of to you. This ibs caused me sinusitis. I learnt this after two years of strain in my nose. I did yoga, I stopped all medicines, I am cured now. If any body struggling with nose blockage, pls command yourself, I have no stress, repeat this words, and also start feeling that your stomach is stress or contraction free. Feel it , keep repeating untill your nose is unblocked, throw away all your stress producing worries , you will be fine soon.
I have been an IBS suffered for over 20 years. One thing I do know is if I become stressed at work I will suddenly have to run to the bathroom. I'm off work 3 to 4 days a month from this. I am now 65 and all I hear from Doctors is yes you have IBS. No course of action just acknowledgement. I decided to try to educate myself on my own and this was the first video I clicked on. Lastly it's nice to know I am not alone.
Assallammualaikum! Abrar I have recently exposed to IBS caz most of my symptoms are constant pain in abdomen bloating and gas and Constipation very often. Can you pls guide me in detail to get rid of this ibs.. It does relate to stress. I have been stressful though but now the pain I get everyday is unbearable. I'm not able to focus on daily life things.
I've had these symptoms for about 6 years now -- ever since my first colonoscopy. Throughout the past year or so, I've tried adding/removing various foods to my diet, without effect. Some days I will "go" once; other days, six or seven times. Sometimes it feels like I'm crapping battery acid, and then I can hardly walk when I'm finished. I'm so tired that I can easily sleep for 14 hours a day. I certainly wouldn't mind some kind of relief from this stupidity...
I’ve been suffering with IBS for so many years. I’m laying down right now unable to get up and walk around. For the last four months has been the worst. I’ve lost 18 pounds my hair is falling out and I can’t seem to find an answer. I have an appointment once again with my G.I. at the end of the month. Can’t wait to get this resolved. Thanks for sharing
Do you eat fruit, fiber, drink water and take acidophilus? Stay away from too many beans and potatoes because they cause constipation. Also you may not be getting enough protein or thyroid conditions.
@@kimberlyhortz6471 I do eat quite a bit of fruit. But I have to look for a good probiotic. I did have a thyroid test done recently and it seems to be OK. Thanks for your feedback and I have been eating beans in the last week or so. So I’ll make sure I avoid them moving forward. Thank You!
After 25+ year’s following my gallbladder surgery and still having problems, some similar diagnosis what I have faced. But I learned about my possible conditions more in this program more , than ever! Wow! What an eye opening amazing set of information! Thank you! I’m wondering, why our ( otherwise great doctors don’t get into these details?)
Great video! IBS can definitely be well managed today with the right diet and lifestyle, which is always encouraging for my clients. Thanks for sharing!
Taking Probiotics and antibiotics now. I also was prescribed two other medications. IBS is terrible. Yesterday I almost crapped myself while driving. It was absolutely terrible. Hoping to see relief soon.
I know your problem, in the car is often the worst for me and IBS. It makes me very panicky hoping I don't have an accident both in the car and on the road!!
I've heard many doctors, and you have the best advice because you don't give a cure all. IBS is not treatable by one method because everyone's gut is different. Thank you for doing your research.
EXACTLY, going wheat and dairy free is ideal in curing IBS, because both wheat and dairy are types of food that cannot be digested effectively, so elimination is crucial for recovery!!
Dr. Thank you for explaining so well...I m suffering from 35 yrs...was ignorant...my social life came to a standstill....all thought I m a mentally disturbed patient....but I fought back with fly support.... You gave me relief...I do suffer....but now will not be stressed.... God bless you ...
Doctor do you realize all that smiling was irritating to someone with IBS/IBD? My first six months of IBD at 25, I went down to 100 pounds. I "cured" myself eating marshmallows before and after every meal and at bedtime. Binding and soothing. I figured that out for myself. My doctor did nothing for me. It healed in two weeks and I was free of it for almost 15 years. It came back. Then, eight barium enemas later, and two sigmoidoscopies later, catscans, I was told I had to live with it. I did everything you said in this video on my own. I'm a bit of a nerd. Now in my late 70s I have marshmallows before and after every meal. Back where I started. No, I'm not fat. I never was. My point is check on that patient of yours and get back here 15 years from now and see how fine she is. It's chronic. God bless. I know you mean well but as you said, no two of us are alike. 🤷♀️
I'm 29. I got IBS when I was 22! Out of the bluemoon. It all started with fever + diarrhea. Ever since, my life has changed drmatically. I used to workout, eat 6 to 8 meals a day. Eat everything & anything. I lost all my muscles. I lost appetite. I never feel hungry, and always bloated & full. I spend so much time in the toilet. Its not constipation, yet it takes a very long time to evacuate, 40 to 60mints. Tired, sick & very down. done every single test. nothing helps..tried every medicine.
@@ZeeshanAhmed-os1lm I'm just like the OP, all tests come back normal yet I'm always bloated and unable to eat without getting horrible abdominal cramps and distention. I don't know what to do or who to go to for help, I'm only 97 lbs. . .
You're the only person i hsve watched with a talk that makes alot of sense.I have a 7 years who was diagnosed with IBS.I have lived with gerd for 8years which doctors said is a result of 2.5cm hiatus hernia and managed to put it in check though avoiding gluten and most of dry grains apart from chick peas and lentils ( i take them in moderation).I also dont take coffee chocolate and carbonated drinks. Im concerned that everytime i give my son cabbages,he experienced bloating.
I have had this for over 40 years. I have recently gotten a little relief from a medication (NOT an antidepressant) which I take on a daily basis. However, it still hasn’t helped to change my life for the better.
@@gimygaming8655 I have IBS-C and I now know that meat and cheese were the cause. If I piled any type of fiber on top of eating meat and cheese I was in big trouble. You just have to really listen to your own body and try to discover the foods that work for you. Everyone is different
Dear Dr. Mark Hyman thank you for your most informative detail explanation and recommendation. It is important to avoid such allergen foods as: dairy, gluten, yeast, soy, eggs & peanuts. Take fish oil, zinc, magnesium and fiber. Also, ask the doctor about temporary antibiotic RX treatment known as: Rifaximin (generic form: Flonoram) treatment for uninvited visitors to small bowel. Good info, TY!
I have IBS for the last 7 years. I'm in my late twenties. Rifaximin used to work like magic the last few yrs until it stopped working. During diarrhoea, I take probiotics now. I have always taken medicines through the full course.
I just had an IBS attack after being on Metamucil, Miralax, and Senna. (My PCP's idea.) It might have bee triggered by the July 4th holiday when I ate too much of foods I don't normally eat, including wine cooler. Extra hydration didn't fool my gut one bit. The attack came on suddenly as I was meeting up with a frien the other day. Needless to say, I am in pain, fatigued, occasionally gassy and nauseated. It isn't helping that we've been in a heatwave here in the Pacific Northwest for 2 weeks. My head aches and one nostril is always blocked by a deviated septum. Living the dream!
I've been dealing with this for 7 years but what seems to be turning it around is treating it with a natural anti-fungal, oil of oregano, no sugar, no simple carbs like bread and pasta. Five days and my gut is no longer bubbling and I'm not running for the bathroom 15 times a day. Look for videos on Candida overgrowth to learn more. Good luck folks.
Good luck! Hope it works for you too! Just an extra note, I've been doing more reading and working on this issue and add fermented foods to your diet because they're loaded with the kind of good bacteria that your body needs. Sauerkraut, Kimchi and kefir. @@maciej_zieba
A TRUE doctor. Love him .. Wish I could get to see him one day. Thank you doc .. I have wondered whether I would be able to live if everthing I ate triggered this problem. But what can one do to heal the lining of the colon back to a healthy state..?
I just got diagnosed with IBS a couple of months ago. I discovered what makes me get constipated. For me it's dairy, meat, spices and grains. I am currently on a fruit and vegetable diet and I drink almond milk. Also, I drink a glass of Metamucil every morning and every night. It seems to be helping. My doctor never told me my problem was psychological. This is the first I'm hearing that.
Ive just got an IBS diagnosis. I never had any problems in my 39 years until 6 months ago when I first started getting bad stomachs and bloating. The bad stomach usually lasts for about 6 or 7 hours amd comes on around 5 hours after my last meal of the day, so Im up all night. Its happening around 3 times per week and affecting my life badly. Ive been on medication for 2 weeks which isnt working. Doesn' t seem to matter what I eat, but im going through trial and error with food to see if I can figure out the triggers. I'm pretty sure artificial sweetner, sugar and caffeine are going to have to be no goes from now on. I get more hood days when I dont touch them. All these late nights in pain is getting exhausting.
I’ve been suffering with IBS all my life! Please send me everything I need to help me to please. I’m 38 years old and feel like I always need a bathroom near by.

All this is maybe true for some people but Monash University in Australia has a fodmap diet that they have tested for 10 years. I thought, according to the test, that I have SIBO, but Rifamixin is what caused my irritable bowel syndrom to become chronic. I am tolerant to lactose, gluten, corn, eggs and soy and so are a majority of IBS sufferers. I am intolerant to some other fodMaps. So, Dr Hyman, what are you rhinking now, in 2021 about IBS? did you change your treatment?
This strikes me as a very informative video, based on genuine knowledge and experience. I plan to follow up on his recommendations and see where it goes. I can’t take the pain much longer.
My 85 y.o. mother, 113#, has been suffering with IBS and I drove 12 hours to help her get through some of her issues which have been worsening due to added stress in her life. Went for a doctor visit with her and couldn't believe it when she prescribed cimetidine for her abdominal cramping, bloating and pain. She thought it might be a "stomach ulcer!" I said "Her pain and discomfort is not in her stomach, it's in her RLQ." She has a lot of gas and the pain comes and goes. She had a bowel resection about 5 years ago and things have been getting worse only recently. Amazingly enough, I did get her to give up dairy, halelujah! She's still eating eggs and gluten tho. I'll keep trying.... will aloe vera juice help? We bought some sauerkraut today.... it's a start!
@@nsms1297 you cant cure IBS, a simple google search will inform you why. You can control it thought with kefyr products, fiber depending the type you have and controlling your anxiety levels(thats the part im losing the fight). I had it 2 years ago it appeared again in quarantine and it messed me really good this time. Stress feeds it
Mine has been going on for 3 months now , I have stomach pain , constant anxiety / panic attacks , stress and discomfort in my stomach . Constipation and diarrhea . I’ve been to the hospital and took X-rays none could tell me what’s wrong other then I’m fine . I haven’t been tested for IBS which stresses me out more thinking I have another disease that can kill me
Can be triggered by many things, usually linked to stress though, hopefully there will be a cure one day but for now In going to start changing the way I see things by occupying myself when in cars on bussed or in small rooms (usually things which make me feel worse) occupying yourself by takin to the people your with, listening to music and having a bit of fresh air usually helps
He gav the most comprehensive explanation I've ever heard! I will now b armed w knowledge when I go 2 the dr. I hav been frustrated beyond belief w the gastrointestinal dr. Hav not gotten any relief whatsoever. Mayb finally
I'm a little confused about the 2 things you suggest your doctor prescribe. Are they not drugs? What are your thoughts on the 8oz water/1Tblsp Bragg's ACV 2-3 times a day before meals to flush the bugs and bacteria and losing weight?
I dont know anymore. Iv'e done everthing I can and I'm still having this shitty problem iv'e been like this for the past year and i dont know how it all started i was normal and then this thing stepped into my life.... This is really ruining my life and I DONT WHAT TO DO NOTHINGS CHANGING... i just want it the way it used to be and not how its like this. I HATE THIS I DONT DESERVED THIS IBS SHITTY PROBLEM!!!!! Pls for anyone out there pls tell how to deal with this because i cant take it anymore and the more this is taking long the more my life gets worse.. so pls... just help :C
I got diagnosed with IBS not too long ago. I completely understand. It's so frustrating when the doctors keep saying "eat more fibre" but it does no good. =( However I recently made some diet changes and it is helping me. Dairy, meat, strong spices and grains were making me constipated. So I am currently on a strict fruit and vegetable diet. I switched over to almond milk, I drink a glass of Metamucil every morning before breakfast and every night before bed. I also make sure I drink 6-8 glass of water everyday. There are some days I still have flare ups but honestly it is a big big improvement! One of my cousins is a pharmacist and suggested to take a probiotic. She said I am basically having an imbalance in my body and the probiotic puts a coating/lining around your stomach and helps you slowly eat normal food again. I haven't bought it yet but I am going to talk to y doctor about it. Remember everyone's bodies are different. Your body may be intolerant to different things as me.
Part 2: however, I do hope this can give you an idea of what to do and things that may help you. Wishing you all the best! I know it's dreadful and so painful. I went through nearly 6 months of gruelling tests and constipation almost every single day. It's so painful and embarrassing when going out to other people's houses or even doing something as simple as shopping.
You will take anxiety tablet soak fenugreek seeds 2spoons over night morning drink water eat seeds after 2hours drink mint leaves or besal leaves juice ofter 3hours drink apple juice filter water foam
odd, 11 years and no comments..... you are on to something with your list..... the other list of what you should be eating is missing. How are you today, some 11 years later, and what do you eat these days?
@@glen.simpson Pretty wild that after 11 years a comment comes along. But of course that is a good thing because in my experience IBS is an insidious condition that is 100% treatable. Add to the avoid list kale, spinach and collards. The reason I haven't commented further is because my IBS is history. It's cured. No more meds or trips to the ER. An occasional bit of self inflicted indigestion still occurs but apparently my histamine levels are normal and the damage to my gut is no longer. It took several years to completely remit once I was able to kick the bad eating habits, particularly coffee. IBS sufferers must identify the foods that cause the pain, bloating and indigestion. Pills are not the answer. All other foods are okay. The important thing to remember is that pretty much any foods cause a problem when the gut is highly irritated and inflamed, when symptoms are acute. It's tough getting through that but it will happen if those foods can be identified and avoided.
I'm a 67 yr old woman, that has suffered from (I, believe)my Dr. doesn't, from IBS for at least, a year. I will suddenly have severe diarrhea, for days, take Imodium, then I get severe abdominal pain, bloating and constipation. I've tried the "BRAT" diet (sometimes works)then, I take exlax, which triggers the diarrhea, again. It's an endless cycle, which is, debilitating. I'm at my wits end......
I've just recently been diagnosed with IBS. I'm only 22, and it just started flaring up out of the blue about a month ago. Most of the time I am fine, but when it hits 3 p.m. on it's extremely painful. Evenings I am lying on my bed away from my family or I have to cut fun activities short because excruciating abdominal pain. I am so miserable, and nobody understands how embarrassing it is, and how painful it is... :(
I hope you feel better soon. I have similar symptoms that you have. I get the pain and bloating after I eat. Stay strong and I will let you know if I find something that will help you.
Soak fenugreek seeds over night 2spoons morning drink water eat fenugreek ,after 2hours drink besal leaves juice ,or mint leaves filter,after 3hours drink apple juice filter it water foam only try it all the best
Doctors have the know how, but unfortunately my doctor is like the on e you described early on in this video. "Take more fiber" that was it. How can I convince a guy who doesn't want to go any further than this to help me individualize a treatment specific to my needs? Thank you for your great videos!!! Most helpful
I found a couple of your books and I am interested in the broken brain one. I wonder if fasting gets rid of the infection you had but I haven't listened to more then the sample. The ultra simple diet is what I'm after. I have invested in my health and found that a lot of what normal guts can digest aren't like mine and I'm sad because idk what to eat now.. soups? Coconut everything. I don't think I can even have eggs the way they stick to the pan makes me suspicious 🤔. I just want nutrients "food" and I don't want to be deficient. The multivitamins help.with the mind but I am tired of chasing my gut health. I am now going to take it back. I want the simple diet so I hope the book help with my ibs and I will see if I can get the igg test. Thank you my friend for working through your own adhd or gut health problems and sharing 🙏 you are a kind Dr. My God I am greatful to see people like you soldering on with us. We need you by our sides!!!
For the last 3 months I have had excessive gas and soft stool almost every day. On bad days I have diarrhea as well. There is no pain but it is just mentally draining. I have noticed mucus in my stool in several occasions. The symptoms are usually worse in the mornings and after I eat fatty/oily food. I had exams before the summer holidays which was very stressful and then ate a lot of snacks and had a bad diet over the summer when I went to Japan for 2months on vacation. As a side note, I have food allergies in egg, fish, raw vegetables and raw fruits and so my diet was already imbalanced. My aunt has IBD. And my stress levels are usually high everyday because I have misophonia (sound sentstiveness) for the past 7years which makes me in a 'fight or flight' mode very often. I have an appointment with a gastroenterologist but I have to wait a month for the appointment. Any ideas to what it could possibly be? My life has become miserable and I am feeling low.. Anyways thanks for reading.
Very similar situation for me except I don't get bloated if anything I feel more hungry, it feels like you constantly turning down opportunities to go out with family and friends because the thought of it makes you feel sick and your stomach cramps and it's horrible. I found that citrus e.g. Lemons, oranges and even apples made it worse, steak sometimes made it worse and if I ate too fast, mine was triggered by my gcse's I have panic attacks, anxiety and ibs, all of which are somehow linked, it
Been dealing with, and researching about, IBS-C for over 2 years now. How am I just now seeing this vid that was posted 13 years ago. Hope you, your clinic, or people who worked for you are still around because I desperately need some help.
Actually what causes ibs is low bile flow. Which is caused due to less good fat. Fat produces bile. Bile produces enzymes. Which clear your intestine. My recommendation will be start consuming fat with cooked warm foods and take bile salts.
I had great results when I went on the keto diet. Then I switched to low carb and a less strict diet. It seemed like some of my problems returned. I only ate one or two meals per day on keto. Perhaps it was the intermittent fasting that was the key. I feel better the less I eat but it can be difficult.
I’ve had ibs since I was about 6 I’m 16 now and mines so bad that sometimes I can’t get up and out of my bed due to the pain and I’m on the toilet every other day and I’m up every hour of the night and the day and I have to make sure I’m on buscopan and acidophilus and also other anti acids and it takes up so much time of my life and my ibs is set of by: •dairy •cold foods •cold liquids •spicy foods •sugary foods •processed foods •chocolate •cold air on walks gives me chills I also am lactose intolerant and I have to make sure how and what I eat,drink or do

I've had IBS for about 20 years, for me the problems surfaced after a year of extreme stress which led me to a depression and permanent sensitive stomach. For me personally I feel it's mostly a stress-related problem because I always "empty everything" if I eat too fast or is exposed to stress. I handle it by eating small portions and trying to keep my life free from stress. But it's a struggle, it's definitevly a life affecting disorder. A lot of planning before doing stuff etc, I bet most people here understand what I'm talking about.
I totally agree because I've noticed that before my symptoms started, I used to dwell on negative things that happened to me in my childhood. I think that by persisting on those thoughts, I've developed hypersensitivity in my nerves, so even a small negative thought can immediately trigger bowel flare-ups. However, when I calm down and have no racing thoughts, everything seems to be fine. I'm planning on conducting the test suggested from the Doc
I agree
Stress is killing us bro😢
I agree, my girlfriend of 35 years died, and the consequent stress is still omnipresent 18 months later, and now I have IBS, no diarrhea or constipation but constant achy pain the lower abdomen--CT scans and colonoscopy show nothing is wrong lol
Thanks for saying that. I've always had minor problems with my gut and periodically bloat up, doctors tell me I'm fat lose some weight, yet I'm not fat my body returns to normal size so I know. I worked in a physical job and eat healthy and monitor my sugar intake, I gave up drinking alcohol 20 years ago. Recently at retirement age I decided to move from my comfortable life to an asian country that I'd spent a lot of time in over the years. I was fine up until about 3 weeks out from leaving. There was massive stress getting my home ready to rent, moving out of it, renting it to an unknown stranger, selling most of my things. Then there was leaving my friends, leaving a life I loved, I was comfortable but I also loved where I was going. Then I started questioning it thinking I was making a mistake. On top of this I'd been running a stressful business I had decided to end because of stress. So I arrive in the new country and about 3 weeks in I notice blood in my stools so I went to a doctor. I had recently had a colonoscopy and an ultra scan and I was normal. The doctor said no worries its just damage to intestine lining, he gave me medication and immediately it cleared up. But then I started getting pains in my intestines which would be mild but annoying and be anywhere from my chest down to my bowels, it wasn't localised. After a few weeks it developed to a point I feel full when I eat, I feel like my bowels are still full after going to the toilet. During the day I can feel like I need to go to the toilet yet I can't then it just disappears. The doctor did a stool test and found I had no bacteria problem or blood in my stool. He said I have IBS. I have put this down to over stressing retiring and leaving my country. The doctor agreed. My condition has improved but is still there 3 months in. What this video says about the thin intestine lining makes sense with what the doctors said. Now reading about others with stress problems makes sense also. I've always worried, over think things and stress out.
Everything you described about your patient is me to a T. I am 22 and this is my 10th year with IBS. I have avoided my doctor as they just proscribe me antidepressants which I personally do not believe in. I’m only 2 min into your video and I’m sitting here crying because I’ve never related to someone so much.. I’m not crazy, and I’m not alone. Thank you for your video.
Best of luck with your recovery
I hope you are better now.
Are you better now? Did your IBS go away? Thanks
same 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Same situation i have yeast infection also food allergies iam loseing weight tired all time.
My daughter has IBS, she went on a Fodmap diet and 95% of her symptoms stopped. Primary causes were consuming onions and garlic. She recently discovered She has issues with pasteurized cheeses, but not cheese that has been aged for 60 days. Most Cabot cheeses are aged and imported cheeses are aged. Most American made cheese is pasteurized and not aged, even though the cheese may appear similar to aged cheese, such as cheddar cheese.
Garlic has its own antibiotics to the body
Sir please give me a diet chart and day plan iam a 21 year old..
Was she mostly constipated? I only go once a week and diarrhea when I drink tea that helps me go or other medications that helps me go but then I only pass gas😒
The Fodmap diet can be found on the internet, eliminate onion and garlic from your diet. Also you should be gluten free, lactose free or dairy free, no chemicals in your diet, no artificial sugars. Clean eating should be your goal, nothing artificial, no package foods, read food labels.
@@free2binnh can you please give me idea of what foods you eat for like breakfast lunch dinner?
My son has suffered for over 20 years. He would be the REAL TEST for you. We have been thru countless doctors, specialists,even psychiatrists. He is diagnosed with Severe IBS with inflammation of the small and large intestine, also with constipation and diarrhea. He also has food allergies. It has cost him his jobs, his relationships, and from having a normal life. Yet he remains hopeful. It is a very mean disease!
clayfeathers how is he now)
You need to go see Dr. John Bergman
Hi rebecca's, sorry to hear about your son..20 yrs..poor kid!!! Just a thought..I've heard people that have had root canals done sometimes can be toxic to the system. Hope he is better by now.🙏..this video is very old.
Try fasting
You are a great Mom! I suffered since H.S. and still do. I am still dismissed as being a baby and not really "that sick"
The biggest hurdle which only IBS patients has to endure is that,
1. Not many doctors would listen, nor they think with a strategy.
2. Everytime you see a new doctor, it's like completely redoing your diagnosis from the scratch.
3. If you stick with a single doctor you wouldn't know for sure if the treatment is working as optimal.
4. Some doctors assume this as psychological problem.
5. Colonoscopy is the defacto method to check for any single concern. Like sticking a rod into a rubber toy.
6. You never know if there will be a rupture of colon during a colonoscopy.
7. Not every doctor is as educated or experienced.
8. Not many countries has best equipment.
9. Some say it's caused due to historical drug reaction, hereditary, appendix surgery etc.
10. Not many vaccine trails consider for IBS patients. Example: Covid-19 Vaccine has no drug study on this group.. and it's officially stated.
11. At the end you end up becoming your own researcher, nurse, doctor, diet expert etc.
Really where is this information?
Thank you i knew i wasn't crazy my doctor did a colonoscopy and said i have high stomach acid and give me medication i took then for a year and my stomach is still messed up i tried to tell him i feel like its something do with my digestive track and this is before i knew about ibs he kept shuting me down so i just got up and left and did my own research and found this
I agree with point no. 11 bro
@@ashantataylor4026you’re going to have to double check that,most people have low stomach acid and the more older you become your stomach start to produce higher acid levels,most doctors just want to do their “work” but not actually going to the root of the issues,I went through a bunch of tests including endoscopy and everything came back normal and every time I talk to the doctor he literally tells me I don’t know what’s wrong with you.
Thanks God I’ve been getting better,drinking lemon water,using ACV in my meals and the heartburn,bloating and acid reflux is gone,expect I have from time to time constipation
You just described me , I have become a researcher 😅 I guess I will get my PHD on my own soon.
I used to have IBS and it has 99% gone, just an occasional flare up. Aloe gel drink and a food allergy test were the two things that really helped me.I found I was intolerant to wheat, oats and dairy (which made up most of my diet!!). Really recommend both these routes if you haven't yet.
Which brand of Aloe Vera did you used please
Fresh aloe vera can work?
Doesn't Aloe Vera give u diarrhea
It doesn't give you diarrhea if you don't consume the green, stinky fluid that shows up right after cutting. It grows here in the tropics, i cut it from the bunch outside, let the slimy green stinky fluid drain into the grass. By the next day, slice it open, cut out the flesh, put it in a glass jar with fresh water and store in the fridge and sip it daily.

Thank you so much! I've been struggling with ibs for only about 2 years now and it finally got to the point where i had absolutely no control. I'm a truck driver and having an episode on the road is THE WORST. I called my doctor and they didnt dismiss it but are having me try the diet reformation.
Hi bud I’m a trucker myself but honestly feel most comfortable in the truck because I know I can stop anywhere if I’m totally beat…10/4
Try homeopathy , if you can 😊😊
I’ve had diarrhea for four months. New food allergies,

Suffering since 2 months.. recovering day by day... Last 3 days completely normal...
What I followed is..
1. Elimination gluten and Sugar
2. Gentle Yoga
3. Pranayam
4. 35 mins walk...
Day by day I feel I am improving a little bit..
Dear IBS community, have you ever observed if we are in hurry or if we are supposed to complete any target in time may it be simple cooking or any simple task in time... Due to even simple worry our stomach contracts. And doesn't feel like relax stomach... We have to observe this very carefully,....I think this is the reason.. it starts feeling abnormal,..
For that meditation, stressfree no time bound commitment, slow and peaceful working style.. rhythmic pattern of breathing is very necessary to keep brain gut in sync..
I had this IBS 3 YEARS BACK resolved in 2 months then again 1 year back... Again resolved in 1 month and now since last 2 months... Reaolving slowly .. since last 3 days....❤
Hello. Did you recover naturally or did you take some medications. Because medications won't really help.
@@alka3008 yoga, curd, buttermilk, morning walk, timely sleep helped me. Now I can eat everything and totally recovered from IBS
Just excellent.
I am from India and have IBS.The way Western countries are involving Yoga , Pranayam from Ancient India is amazing
What is your diet
@sid6712
I am vegetarian.
Curd and homemade buttermilk helped me a lot.
I quit wheat and shifted to Jawar, bajara, Raagi.
But Now I am eating everything a normal person can eat. I am cured completely.
Thank God' all of these years I thought I was all alone with this horrible disease. My ibs came along at the age of 29, and I'm now 49years old. In recent weeks I've discovered that my symptoms have decreased a whole lot, once I added green leafy lettuce , lots of ruffage ( salads ). And' most of all apples, yes just simple red apples has given me much more time to make it the restroom when I have an ibs attack. Before I've had bowel accidents in my car, even years when I had to ride the bus, I'd be late for work, because I'd have to stop by a mc donalds or any where just to use the toilet. My doctor has prescribed metamucil for me, which works great only if you cut down and or, eliminate sugar and dairy from your diet. But' most of all romaine / green leafy lettuce and apples has worked wonders for me. Good luck to everyone and god bless!!
david banner its not disease it is syndrome which means if u cure ureself from it it will go back to the way it should be , now celiac is a disease because it permanently erodes u're intestine lining and u will never recover from the damage done! so thank god it is ibs and not celiac!
In majority of the cases, the damage done to the intestinal villi by Celiac is reversed once the patient starts a gluten-free diet. The intestinal lining goes back to normal once there is no gluten in the system. So Celiac would be a better alternative to IBS which has absolutely no legit cure or treatment.

+Zubin Sharma In majority of cases where poster posts same thing over and over, it is a case of mindless repetition only, especially when the poster says one disease is a "better alternative" thus makes a mindless and some would say stupid judgment on preference of what disease to have, spoken as someone who does have Celiac.
OMG, I feel hope for myself again. Today I had intense pain all over my body. I need to work is all I was thinking. I picked up my cell phone again and wow!!!!!!! I chose your Chanel. You have given me hope again. Thank you for taking the time out to share. Long story short. I suspected all you stated with my eating etc. I will schedule another visit with my Dr. and or my Gastrointestinal Dr. I pray they don't brush me off as being healthy. Because right now I am not healthy. I can't eat anything.....
Thank you . I feel better already knowing there is a cure and it's not through my head. it totally stresses me out when someone tells me I'm stressed when I'm not.
It's the same with me
I have Crohns Disease. I was diagnosed 17yrs ago (teens) I fully believe that you can heal through your gut in this particular situation. I follow a very clean, plant based, organic diet, and keep a food journal of things I might be more sensitive to. I increased my exercise routine & see a complete 180 in my overall health. I shared my views with my gastroenterologist, who has prescribed me some pretty heavy meds w/very harmful side effects, in which he feels I will always have to take because I have a “disease”. I have been told by him that he also knows how “my generation is when it comes to natural healing”. I do feel very blessed when it comes to my disease as I have only had flare ups when I first diagnosed & maybe small issues towards the ends of pregnancies that went away on their own. Thank you for sharing this video & I wondered if you could dive more into Crohns aspect of it more. Would love to hear your thoughts 🙏🏽🖤
How old are you now and has it gotten better?
There are case studies from ppl getting rid of chrons symptoms after changing to a clean plant based diet so your doctor is uneducated
Can you please tell me what foods you eat for breakfast lunch dinner
Crohns is an ibd so its more physical than anything it wont be healed like ibs would
I have Crohn's I eat oatmeal in the morning snack on fruit platters And chicken at night what can I do for the bloating etc?
Thank you, thank you, thank you. 2 years of horrible suffering. I am on it and will be sharing this with other sufferers of this terrible chronic disorder.
How to I schedule appointment with u
What did you do
Wait..... l thought my problem was "all in my head".
Any doctor that tells you this is stupid and needs to stop practicing. Odds are most doctors who say this are older as well. I'm not saying all older doctors say this, but you're more than likely going to get an older one to make this kind of comment than a younger one. There certainly are mental factors that go into how IBS affects you and when/how it is triggered, but the idea that it's all in your head is absurd. I don't care what their resume and education is, any doctor who says that is not intelligent.
Midnight Meow it isn't its physical
Midnight Meow what you eat can also trigger IBS.
I thought the same . 🙁😐
Look for Rachel Greene's UTube videos. She healed her IBS with Ketone supplements.
Or look online at a product called IBSolution. Read the testimonials on its website - people are saying it ended all their IBS symptoms.
This doctor has a great understanding on IBS cases and symptoms. I like how he states it’s not a one size fits all examples as something’s may make another person with IBS feel worse. Everyone who has this issue should be testing, and doing everything they can to identify what makes them feel great. Myself having IBS I’ve done a lot of research and his explanations are very clear to what I’ve done for myself over the few years I’ve suffered from this.
How does it feel to improve people’s lives?
The doctor in this video presented some good reasons for what causes IBS, but IBS for some people can also be caused by anxiety.
33Crazydude IBS is what gives you anxiety not the other way around... The only way to see clearly through your IBS is to follow exactly what he's just said on the video.

At the age of 19 I got diagnosed with a dysfunctioning gallbladder. Doctors wanted to remove it (absolute idiots), ignoring the fact I was 19 male and athletic.
Saw a naturopath and figured out that I have severe dysbiosis and an overgrowth of a pathogen in my gut.
This can give organ dysfunction and a myriad of food sensitivities. I’m glad I listened to my intuition and gave a big middle finger to those almighty medical doctors who said my gallbladder would never work again.

@Waeve well thanks so much for the advice . I ain't an expert but it sounds weird but if its working for her it may be worth trying.
@Waeve I don't believe that drinking ketones will make anyone be in ketosis but somebody sure is fooled if they're trying to make people believe that. Or somebody is trying to fool people.
@Waeve o ok thanks for the good info. I will keep that in mind
My worst symptom is nausea. I always feel like throwing up, so eating is a real chore.
Love the way u said the doctor doesn't take u serious I'm from Australia it continuesly happens to me great advice cheers
im aussie
all our doctors here in oz seem to be uneducated and just want to push pills
Great doctor, hats of to you. This ibs caused me sinusitis. I learnt this after two years of strain in my nose. I did yoga, I stopped all medicines, I am cured now. If any body struggling with nose blockage, pls command yourself, I have no stress, repeat this words, and also start feeling that your stomach is stress or contraction free. Feel it , keep repeating untill your nose is unblocked, throw away all your stress producing worries , you will be fine soon.
I have been an IBS suffered for over 20 years. One thing I do know is if I become stressed at work I will suddenly have to run to the bathroom. I'm off work 3 to 4 days a month from this. I am now 65 and all I hear from Doctors is yes you have IBS. No course of action just acknowledgement. I decided to try to educate myself on my own and this was the first video I clicked on. Lastly it's nice to know I am not alone.
Assallammualaikum! Abrar I have recently exposed to IBS caz most of my symptoms are constant pain in abdomen bloating and gas and Constipation very often. Can you pls guide me in detail to get rid of this ibs.. It does relate to stress. I have been stressful though but now the pain I get everyday is unbearable. I'm not able to focus on daily life things.
I wonder how long I would have to repeat that for my nose to unblock. :(
Thank you Dr. Hyman, for covering this so succinctly, so many people need to hear this.
I am crying right now reading this. Thank you so much for posting!!!
I've had these symptoms for about 6 years now -- ever since my first colonoscopy. Throughout the past year or so, I've tried adding/removing various foods to my diet, without effect. Some days I will "go" once; other days, six or seven times. Sometimes it feels like I'm crapping battery acid, and then I can hardly walk when I'm finished. I'm so tired that I can easily sleep for 14 hours a day. I certainly wouldn't mind some kind of relief from this stupidity...
Me to the last one has left me this way for 2year now
@@JoanRickenbach I just started adding real honey to my diet. It seems to be helping, at least initially.
How the hell did he just nail all the symptoms I complain to my own dr!! Thank you so much for this video!!
I’ve been suffering with IBS for so many years. I’m laying down right now unable to get up and walk around. For the last four months has been the worst. I’ve lost 18 pounds my hair is falling out and I can’t seem to find an answer. I have an appointment once again with my G.I. at the end of the month. Can’t wait to get this resolved. Thanks for sharing
Do you eat fruit, fiber, drink water and take acidophilus? Stay away from too many beans and potatoes because they cause constipation. Also you may not be getting enough protein or thyroid conditions.
@@kimberlyhortz6471 I do eat quite a bit of fruit. But I have to look for a good probiotic. I did have a thyroid test done recently and it seems to be OK. Thanks for your feedback and I have been eating beans in the last week or so. So I’ll make sure I avoid them moving forward. Thank You!
Hair falling out is probably due to Iron deficiency. If your intestines can absorb it, try intravenous injections.

But I learned about my possible conditions more in this program more , than ever! Wow! What an eye opening amazing set of information!
Thank you!

Great video! IBS can definitely be well managed today with the right diet and lifestyle, which is always encouraging for my clients. Thanks for sharing!
Me too
unbelievable that my doctor for over two years is unable to fix me but a youtube video can
Taking Probiotics and antibiotics now. I also was prescribed two other medications. IBS is terrible. Yesterday I almost crapped myself while driving. It was absolutely terrible. Hoping to see relief soon.
I know your problem, in the car is often the worst for me and IBS. It makes me very panicky hoping I don't have an accident both in the car and on the road!!
I've heard many doctors, and you have the best advice because you don't give a cure all. IBS is not treatable by one method because everyone's gut is different. Thank you for doing your research.
Thanks Doc! I'd been interested to know what your recommendations are for IBS-C - does this approach also work?
The fact that 20% suffer from ibs shows the amount of STRESS we now all encounter.
EXACTLY, going wheat and dairy free is ideal in curing IBS, because both wheat and dairy are types of food that cannot be digested effectively, so elimination is crucial for recovery!!
Didn’t work for me, sadly, helped a bit, but, no great change
Wow! This guys is extremely smart and we need to learn as much as possible from him!!!
Thank you 🙏 😊
WHERE ARE THE SPECIALISTS
LIKE YOU????
Dr. Thank you for explaining so well...I m suffering from 35 yrs...was ignorant...my social life came to a standstill....all thought I m a mentally disturbed patient....but I fought back with fly support....
You gave me relief...I do suffer....but now will not be stressed.... God bless you ...
Doctor do you realize all that smiling was irritating to someone with IBS/IBD? My first six months of IBD at 25, I went down to 100 pounds. I "cured" myself eating marshmallows before and after every meal and at bedtime. Binding and soothing. I figured that out for myself. My doctor did nothing for me. It healed in two weeks and I was free of it for almost 15 years. It came back. Then, eight barium enemas later, and two sigmoidoscopies later, catscans, I was told I had to live with it. I did everything you said in this video on my own. I'm a bit of a nerd. Now in my late 70s I have marshmallows before and after every meal. Back where I started. No, I'm not fat. I never was. My point is check on that patient of yours and get back here 15 years from now and see how fine she is. It's chronic. God bless. I know you mean well but as you said, no two of us are alike. 🤷♀️
Marshmallows? Gotta try that!
I'm 29. I got IBS when I was 22! Out of the bluemoon. It all started with fever + diarrhea. Ever since, my life has changed drmatically. I used to workout, eat 6 to 8 meals a day. Eat everything & anything. I lost all my muscles. I lost appetite. I never feel hungry, and always bloated & full. I spend so much time in the toilet. Its not constipation, yet it takes a very long time to evacuate, 40 to 60mints. Tired, sick & very down. done every single test. nothing helps..tried every medicine.
hambaaa Hey you can connect with me wapp no 8637513044.. I'm also suffer from it

@@ZeeshanAhmed-os1lm I'm just like the OP, all tests come back normal yet I'm always bloated and unable to eat without getting horrible abdominal cramps and distention. I don't know what to do or who to go to for help, I'm only 97 lbs. . .
@@Jota-rc8yq take librax it will help buddy
Try magnesium citrate before bed or first thing in the morning. It will flush you out later on in the day...guaranteed.
You're the only person i hsve watched with a talk that makes alot of sense.I have a 7 years who was diagnosed with IBS.I have lived with gerd for 8years which doctors said is a result of 2.5cm hiatus hernia and managed to put it in check though avoiding gluten and most of dry grains apart from chick peas and lentils ( i take them in moderation).I also dont take coffee chocolate and carbonated drinks.
Im concerned that everytime i give my son cabbages,he experienced bloating.
I have had this for over 40 years. I have recently gotten a little relief from a medication (NOT an antidepressant) which I take on a daily basis. However, it still hasn’t helped to change my life for the better.
This is the best advice I've come across re: IBS.
FODMAP diet is very helpful to learn which foods cause IBS.
I just learned this, so far a week in and nothing. I was told it might take 8 weeks so I'm hopeful
@@gimygaming8655 I have IBS-C and I now know that meat and cheese were the cause. If I piled any type of fiber on top of eating meat and cheese I was in big trouble. You just have to really listen to your own body and try to discover the foods that work for you. Everyone is different
Dear Dr. Mark Hyman thank you for your most informative detail explanation and recommendation. It is important to avoid such allergen foods as: dairy, gluten, yeast, soy, eggs & peanuts. Take fish oil, zinc, magnesium and fiber. Also, ask the doctor about temporary antibiotic RX treatment known as: Rifaximin (generic form: Flonoram) treatment for uninvited visitors to small bowel. Good info, TY!
I have IBS for the last 7 years. I'm in my late twenties. Rifaximin used to work like magic the last few yrs until it stopped working. During diarrhoea, I take probiotics now. I have always taken medicines through the full course.
I just had an IBS attack after being on Metamucil, Miralax, and Senna. (My PCP's idea.) It might have bee triggered by the July 4th holiday when I ate too much of foods I don't normally eat, including wine cooler. Extra hydration didn't fool my gut one bit. The attack came on suddenly as I was meeting up with a frien the other day. Needless to say, I am in pain, fatigued, occasionally gassy and nauseated. It isn't helping that we've been in a heatwave here in the Pacific Northwest for 2 weeks. My head aches and one nostril is always blocked by a deviated septum. Living the dream!
I've been dealing with this for 7 years but what seems to be turning it around is treating it with a natural anti-fungal, oil of oregano, no sugar, no simple carbs like bread and pasta. Five days and my gut is no longer bubbling and I'm not running for the bathroom 15 times a day. Look for videos on Candida overgrowth to learn more. Good luck folks.
@ddhqj2023 gonna give it a go. Hope they have it in UK haha. Take care!
Good luck! Hope it works for you too! Just an extra note, I've been doing more reading and working on this issue and add fermented foods to your diet because they're loaded with the kind of good bacteria that your body needs. Sauerkraut, Kimchi and kefir. @@maciej_zieba

I just got diagnosed with IBS a couple of months ago. I discovered what makes me get constipated. For me it's dairy, meat, spices and grains. I am currently on a fruit and vegetable diet and I drink almond milk. Also, I drink a glass of Metamucil every morning and every night. It seems to be helping. My doctor never told me my problem was psychological. This is the first I'm hearing that.

Ive just got an IBS diagnosis. I never had any problems in my 39 years until 6 months ago when I first started getting bad stomachs and bloating. The bad stomach usually lasts for about 6 or 7 hours amd comes on around 5 hours after my last meal of the day, so Im up all night. Its happening around 3 times per week and affecting my life badly. Ive been on medication for 2 weeks which isnt working. Doesn' t seem to matter what I eat, but im going through trial and error with food to see if I can figure out the triggers. I'm pretty sure artificial sweetner, sugar and caffeine are going to have to be no goes from now on. I get more hood days when I dont touch them. All these late nights in pain is getting exhausting.
I’ve been suffering with IBS all my life! Please send me everything I need to help me to please. I’m 38 years old and feel like I always need a bathroom near by.

All this is maybe true for some people but Monash University in Australia has a fodmap diet that they have tested for 10 years. I thought, according to the test, that I have SIBO, but Rifamixin is what caused my irritable bowel syndrom to become chronic. I am tolerant to lactose, gluten, corn, eggs and soy and so are a majority of IBS sufferers. I am intolerant to some other fodMaps. So, Dr Hyman, what are you rhinking now, in 2021 about IBS? did you change your treatment?
This strikes me as a very informative video, based on genuine knowledge and experience. I plan to follow up on his recommendations and see where it goes. I can’t take the pain much longer.
My 85 y.o. mother, 113#, has been suffering with IBS and I drove 12 hours to help her get through some of her issues which have been worsening due to added stress in her life. Went for a doctor visit with her and couldn't believe it when she prescribed cimetidine for her abdominal cramping, bloating and pain. She thought it might be a "stomach ulcer!" I said "Her pain and discomfort is not in her stomach, it's in her RLQ." She has a lot of gas and the pain comes and goes. She had a bowel resection about 5 years ago and things have been getting worse only recently. Amazingly enough, I did get her to give up dairy, halelujah! She's still eating eggs and gluten tho. I'll keep trying.... will aloe vera juice help? We bought some sauerkraut today.... it's a start!

Can be triggered by many things, usually linked to stress though, hopefully there will be a cure one day but for now In going to start changing the way I see things by occupying myself when in cars on bussed or in small rooms (usually things which make me feel worse) occupying yourself by takin to the people your with, listening to music and having a bit of fresh air usually helps

I got diagnosed with IBS not too long ago. I completely understand. It's so frustrating when the doctors keep saying "eat more fibre" but it does no good. =(
However I recently made some diet changes and it is helping me. Dairy, meat, strong spices and grains were making me constipated. So I am currently on a strict fruit and vegetable diet. I switched over to almond milk, I drink a glass of Metamucil every morning before breakfast and every night before bed. I also make sure I drink 6-8 glass of water everyday. There are some days I still have flare ups but honestly it is a big big improvement! One of my cousins is a pharmacist and suggested to take a probiotic. She said I am basically having an imbalance in my body and the probiotic puts a coating/lining around your stomach and helps you slowly eat normal food again. I haven't bought it yet but I am going to talk to y doctor about it. Remember everyone's bodies are different. Your body may be intolerant to different things as me.
Part 2: however, I do hope this can give you an idea of what to do and things that may help you. Wishing you all the best! I know it's dreadful and so painful. I went through nearly 6 months of gruelling tests and constipation almost every single day. It's so painful and embarrassing when going out to other people's houses or even doing something as simple as shopping.
What exactly are your symptoms?
I'm 16 and i have ibs. It honestly rules my life and is the cause of my anxiety... I have panic attacks whenever i go outside. It's horrible.

My IBS was caused by: Tomato, peppers, eggplant, cucumber, peanuts, garlic, strong onion, coffee, tea, chocolate, caffeine, MSG, corn syrup, beet, highly processed food, fatty food, overeating. I avoid these foods and today consider myself cured.
odd, 11 years and no comments..... you are on to something with your list..... the other list of what you should be eating is missing. How are you today, some 11 years later, and what do you eat these days?
@@glen.simpson Pretty wild that after 11 years a comment comes along. But of course that is a good thing because in my experience IBS is an insidious condition that is 100% treatable. Add to the avoid list kale, spinach and collards. The reason I haven't commented further is because my IBS is history. It's cured. No more meds or trips to the ER. An occasional bit of self inflicted indigestion still occurs but apparently my histamine levels are normal and the damage to my gut is no longer. It took several years to completely remit once I was able to kick the bad eating habits, particularly coffee. IBS sufferers must identify the foods that cause the pain, bloating and indigestion. Pills are not the answer. All other foods are okay. The important thing to remember is that pretty much any foods cause a problem when the gut is highly irritated and inflamed, when symptoms are acute. It's tough getting through that but it will happen if those foods can be identified and avoided.
@@glen.simpsonI wanna yo know too
I'm a 67 yr old woman, that has suffered from (I, believe)my Dr. doesn't, from IBS for at least, a year.

I found a couple of your books and I am interested in the broken brain one. I wonder if fasting gets rid of the infection you had but I haven't listened to more then the sample. The ultra simple diet is what I'm after. I have invested in my health and found that a lot of what normal guts can digest aren't like mine and I'm sad because idk what to eat now.. soups? Coconut everything. I don't think I can even have eggs the way they stick to the pan makes me suspicious 🤔. I just want nutrients "food" and I don't want to be deficient. The multivitamins help.with the mind but I am tired of chasing my gut health. I am now going to take it back. I want the simple diet so I hope the book help with my ibs and I will see if I can get the igg test.

Prefermaxon what was the drug you said to get a prescription for at the end?
For the last 3 months I have had excessive gas and soft stool almost every day. On bad days I have diarrhea as well. There is no pain but it is just mentally draining. I have noticed mucus in my stool in several occasions. The symptoms are usually worse in the mornings and after I eat fatty/oily food. I had exams before the summer holidays which was very stressful and then ate a lot of snacks and had a bad diet over the summer when I went to Japan for 2months on vacation. As a side note, I have food allergies in egg, fish, raw vegetables and raw fruits and so my diet was already imbalanced. My aunt has IBD. And my stress levels are usually high everyday because I have misophonia (sound sentstiveness) for the past 7years which makes me in a 'fight or flight' mode very often. I have an appointment with a gastroenterologist but I have to wait a month for the appointment. Any ideas to what it could possibly be? My life has become miserable and I am feeling low.. Anyways thanks for reading.

Actually what causes ibs is low bile flow. Which is caused due to less good fat. Fat produces bile. Bile produces enzymes.
Which clear your intestine.
My recommendation will be start consuming fat with cooked warm foods and take bile salts.
Take bile salts and b1 and start by small fat ghee animal fat or butter. Then move up

I had great results when I went on the keto diet. Then I switched to low carb and a less strict diet. It seemed like some of my problems returned. I only ate one or two meals per day on keto.

My recommendation will be start consuming fat with cooked warm foods and take bile salts.
