I would ask your GI why they are downplaying diet for you–understanding his/her perspective might give you some peace of mind. Neuromodulator medications such as low dose anti-depressants can be quite helpful in the right patient. Like all IBS treatments, what works for one person, might not work for you. It’s a bit of a trial and error situation—-that takes patience.

I have really bad IBS. I’ve been taking yourbiology. At first I loved it. Then like two weeks I had to cut down to one a day and work my way back up to two a day though. Now I take it all the time. The constant aching I had in my stomach is gone. Hope this helps someone too.

Any updates on this? The vegan blend seems affordable. Thanks in advance

You can definitely leave out the coconut–no need to add another ingredient in its place–though I might add a couple tablespoons hemp seeds, maybe, as an alternative. The Earth balance should work too–worth a try! Let me know how they come out!
