Do You Have IBS?

IBS, stands for irritable bowel syndrome. IBS is a group of very common symptoms such as:

· Gas

· Chronic bloating

· Cramping

· Constipation

· Diarrhea

We all experience mild gastrointestinal (GI) discomfort every now and then with the symptoms I listed above. It’s when these symptoms last for months and years that IBS is diagnosed.

IBS can be very disruptive depending on the severity of your symptoms. Some, a lucky few, have mild discomfort every now and then. While others find it difficult to enjoy a normal lifestyle due to their symptoms.
