I was wondering if any of you supplemented your diet with digestive enzymes? If so, can you tell me which ones helped and which ones didn't? I am thinking about putting my son on them after I read a bit more on it to see if it will help him with IBS.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Yes, Sixx, I've tried a product called "Digestive Advantage IBS," and it is working. I have the IBS with diarrhea and this product, in just one week, got rid of my pains, gas, and bloating, and has stopped the diarrhea. It was only $10 for 32 chewable tablets in the local drugstore. You should try it!

Hi Sixx,
I don't want to nix what Gregzgirl said. She is probably right about Digestive Advantage for IBS. The active ingredient in it is a probiotic (Lactobacillus). I've been takeing a probiotic for quite sometime and it does seem to help. I didn't mention it earlier because I'm a C not a D but I read on their sight it works for both. I take something called Multidophilus. They have 4 probiotics in them. You get them in the refridgerator section of your health food store. They are a fairly small capsle. You could also break them open and sprinkle them in milk, apple juice or grape juice. I wouldn't use oj because of the acid I know the bacteria can live on the other three. They are $12 for 90 capsles. Mine have such a high bacteria count that I only have to take one a day. There job is to help you grow good bacteria in your colon to cut down on the bad which in turn helps regulate your bowel or that's the idea anyway.
Hope this helps.
Love,
Jamie
