About IBS Treatment Center
===========================

Dr. Stephen Wangen, co-founder and Medical Director of the IBS Treatment Center, and his staff have successfully helped over 10,000 people resolve irritable bowel syndrome and chronic digestive problems since 2005.

Some patients have had IBS symptoms so severe that they spent a considerable amount of time in the hospital. Others are suffering alone at home and are no less frustrated with the impact that it is having on their lives. The thread that tied them all together was that they had never seen an IBS expert (much different than a gastroenterologist), a doctor whose only mission is to help people solve IBS.

Patients work with us from around the country and the world via our telemedicine services. Get back your life! Work with us via telemedicine. Visit the IBS Specialists at ibstreatmentcenter.com/

    Who's watching this during an IBS flare up? ✋️🙇‍♀️ hope healing comes your way ❤️🥲
  • @spookyvegan1402
    I’m convinced that my ibs was brought on my trauma and stress -/ Cause I remember feeling normal before my mom and both my dogs died
  • @s.c.2424
    This video was informative. I hate what IBS has done to me and it seems every gastro doctor I see, makes it almost sound normal and no big deal. When I don't eat for days I'm fine. The worst part is the bodyaches and even small bruises after these attacks. I decided to just eat once a day and keep it very small and it did wonders but I felt weak. My doctor said "keep up the good work" after 40 pds lost. I'm done ranting I just know others here have experienced similar and it is a lonely road.

    Awake crying hoping i can find relief from this horrific burning in my intestines 😢

    My IBS/Constipation is due to gluten intolerance. All gluten free foods . No Sugar . I actually had to eat clean keto diet and really helped me. Magnesium helps tremendously
  • IBS has absolutely destroyed my life. I have IBSD (For diarrhea at the drop of a hat, any time any place.) I can”t work & have had to retire early. I miss work. I adore my profession & I am miserable now. I had a mission a purpose & now feel completely useless. I am a slave to this disease.
  • I have IBS, but I'm not stressed. I am retired and I stay home and enjoy my dogs and pretty much do whatever I want to. I get flare ups about 5 or 6 times a year. I try to stay away from the foods that I don't do well with. I do best when I eat a lot of fruit and veggies (cooked of course). I noticed that in the summer, I do well with eating all the garden veggies we grow every year. Then as fall and winter come, we start eating chili, spaghetti and all the winter foods and that is when I start having problems. I love spicy foods and most of the time avoid them, but sometimes I just have to eat them...then I pay for it.

    Thank you so much for all valuable information. After watching I realized how much raw food I was eating without realizing. I stopped it all. And I have followed your advice to eat more soup especially during those attack days. It really helped me alot. I eat 2-3 bowls of soup some days to feel the relief. I’m grateful that I’ve watched your videos 🙏
  • @mmsalazar2011
    I figured out to immediately drink hot ginger tea. It helps tremendously.. releasing gas, and helping with cramps . This works for me.
  • There’s my favorite doc! This man saved my life! I was so ill for so long and it was because I was eating foods I’m allergic to and didn’t know it. Call the center and get tested..you won’t be sorry!
  • @parthoroy1864
    This is the simplest and most sensible video on ibs that I have come across . Thanks Doc .
  • @syndisue530
    I been suffering for two years and I have an intolerance to wheat soy and gluten + IBS which doesn’t give you too many eating options! I’d love to feel better ❤
  • @Jvigil331
    Oh my goodness, I ate everything he said not to and my gut is rock hard. Now I understand. Thank you, thank you , thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
  • I’m in one now, and you probably know that nurses can’t miss work. However, I can’t constantly stop what I’m doing or be in pain and run to the bathroom. Plus, I don’t think the hospital would be too happy if I had diarrhea and went to work. Even though it’s not infectious and we are constantly washing our hands, there’s still a chance of transferring gut bacteria to the pt. Edit: Also, the exhaustion makes it hard to function.
  • @Jennifr1966
    I cannot thank you for talking about this. I have NEVER met anybody who goes through what i do, and you're right -- it can be debilitating! What really scares me is that my mother died from an ileus / perforated diverticulum. I've been told my whole life that this is completely benign, but now I'm not so sure. Could she have been going through IBS herself? I do know she fought chronic constipation.
  • @sarahlund-nt3kw
    You know what's funny? Everyone tells me to eat whole grains, wheat, potatoes, nuts, fibre, etc, and they're the one's that were listed on your food avoidance list, but for good reason. 👍
  • Suffering since 2 months.. recovering day by day... Last 3 days completely normal... What I followed is.. 1. Elimination gluten and Sugar 2. Gentle Yoga 3. Pranayam 4. 35 mins walk... Day by day I feel I am improving a little bit.. Dear IBS community, have you ever observed if we are in hurry or if we are supposed to complete any target in time may it be simple cooking or any simple task in time... Due to even simple worry our stomach contracts. And doesn't feel like relax stomach... We have to observe this very carefully,....I think this is the reason.. it starts feeling abnormal,.. For that meditation, stressfree no time bound commitment, slow and peaceful working style.. rhythmic pattern of breathing is very necessary to keep brain gut in sync.. I had this IBS 3 YEARS BACK resolved in 2 months then again 1 year back... Again resolved in 1 month and now since last 2 months... Resolving slowly .. since last 3 days....❤
  • @AngelasJoys
    I really like you. You do know what people with IBD or S feel. I would add these things. You can have chicken baked and put it in a food processor that does the chewing for you. Don't overeat. Eat bland. A heating pad either on your stomach or on your lower back near your waist. Sugar doesn't bother me. Everyone has different triggers. Some dairy and yes, salads and spices are my enemies. Terrific channel.
