Irritable bowel syndrome natural remedies The cause of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are not widely known or scientifically established yet. This makes it difficult to determine remedies for the problem as well. But there can be some common causes that lead to the problem and subsequently, remedial measures can be taken for those. One of the commonest reasons for IBS is intolerance towards lactose, an ingredient present in most milk and milk products. Those who have this problem will generally experience bloating, gas, diarrhea and discomfort. Cheese and yogurt seem to not contribute towards this problem significantly. It would be better to eliminate all milk products that do, such as milk, ice creams, pastries, cream and so on from your diet.
It is also commonly believed that citrus fruits cause IBS. It is better to stay away from all of them, including limes. Since gas is a very significant symptom, it is better to stay away from all gas-causing products. This would include beans, corn, fizzy drinks and cabbage. Spices also tend to irritate the stomach, so these should also be avoided. Some of the more unusual cases of food products that can contribute to IBS are chocolate, alcohol, wheat and sugar. It is advisable to stay away from them for a while and see if they make a significant difference to your condition.
