Natural Remedies for Ibs (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)
Irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS, is a gastrointestinal disorder caused by irritable and irregular
movement of the small and large intestines.
It can also be called spastic colon and mucous colitis.
Some signs of IBS are stomach cramping or pain, constipation, bloating, gas, mucous
in the stool, nausea, headaches, depression, and fatigue.
The reasons for irritable bowel syndrome are not known, but nervousness, frustration, or
anger can add to it.
Drinking too much coffee and eating raw fruits, cruciferous vegetables, or dairy products
may make the problem worse.
Here are some easy and natural cures for those suffering from IBS.
Yogurt Yogurt that has ‘live cultures’ can help
cure diarrhea that comes from IBS.
This is because live cultures are good bacteria that add a layer of protection in the intestines,
and help make lactic acid to clean the body from germs.
Yogurt could be eaten plain, or made into a smoothie.
Eat it a few times a day until you feel better.
Flaxseed Because flaxseeds have dietary fibers, they
help the body send out waste quickly and smoothly.
Flaxseeds also have a lot of omega- 3 essential fatty acids that help the immune system and
the digestive system stay strong.
For these reasons flaxseeds are great for treating constipation and diarrhea.
Take one tablespoon of freshly ground flaxseed with water once
a day.
Peppermint Peppermint can help with cramping, bloating,
and diarrhea that come from IBS.
A study written in the British Medical Journal found that fiber, antispasmodics, and peppermint
oil all help treat Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
Peppermint oil has menthol oil, which eases cramps or spasms in the smooth muscles of
the digestive tract.
This stops bloating, gas, pain, and intestinal cramps.
Peppermint can also help food pass
Fennel Seeds Fennel seeds can stop the intestinal spasms,
or tightening, and bloating that come with IBS.
It can also help send fats out of the digestive system, and therefore stop the body from making
too much mucous, which can cause IBS.
Ginger Because ginger can lessen gas and bloating,
it is used as a cure for IBS.
Also, ginger can lower the swelling in the intestines, and loosen up the intestinal muscles.
Cabbage Juice Cabbage juice is a great way to treat constipation
that comes from IBS.
This is because raw cabbage juice has sulfur and chlorine.
These help clean the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestinal tract.
Because cabbage juice works as a laxative, it makes bowel movements softer an easier
to pass, and keeps the body hydrated.
To stop you from getting irritable bowel syndrome, you need to always have a good diet and a
healthy lifestyle.
Anything that can stop you from getting stressed, like exercising or meditating, is a good way
to help with bowel discomfort, because it will keep your intestines running in a regular
way.
