Reflux and Irritable Bowel Syndrome
"I had been diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Esophageal Reflux over ayear ago. I was given a prescription for the reflux condition, but tried to control the IBS with diet - no dairy products, roughage, chocolate, caffeine, etc. In other words, taking
the fun out of eating! Even then I had flare ups and be on a liquid diet for several days to allow my intestinal tract to settle down. I lost about 15 pounds in a short time.
Optiflora was a Godsend when Shaklee introduced it. Chris recommended I take 2 Optiflora capsule and 1 Herb Lax with the prebiotic to start with. I soon cut back to one capsule and only teaspoon of the prebiotic powder and been taking that each night at
bedtime ever since. My condition has subsided - no diarrhea, bloating, or cramping. I can eat anything as long as I don't overdo it and have not had a spell of IBS for months.
By adding 3 Stomach Soothing Complex after meals, I no longer need a prescription medicine for the Reflux condition either. All thanks to Shaklee's wonderful research and commitment to "the best".
