6 Diet Changes I Made to Heal My IBS
Hello! My name is Sindy and in this post you can read how I naturally healed my IBS.
My background with IBS
Bloating and cramps. For as long as I can remember, problems with my stomach have been part of my everyday life. Periodically so bad that I chose to refrain from much with the fear of not being close to a toilet or being able to rest my stomach. Doctors could find some specific allergies or problems in the stomach, hence I was diagnosed with IBS.
Why I wanted to make a change
My doctor's advice was to eat according to a Foodmap diet. Which unfortunately had no major effect on my stomach. Medicines are something I try to avoid as much as possible, and want to be as natural as possible. Therefore, I decided to change my diet and heal my stomach that way.
What helped me:
- Started using Bella Boost. My stomach feels much calmer and less bloated
- Always start the day with a fiber-rich breakfast. Porridge is my favorite, it gets the stomach going and creates a good foundation for the day
- I drink a lot of water - with meals and in between
- Stopped drinking coffee & other caffeinated drinks - replace it with tea
- Eating more fat, from fish, nuts, avocados etc - helps the gut to process the food
- Cut back on sugar and sweeteners - feel less bloated
With the help of these changes, today I can eat basically anything without thinking. I hope this can help someone else!
Note that this blog post is a personal experience and what cures one's IBS is individual. Consult your doctor in case of discomfort.
