IBS-C help!

I suffer from IBS-C and am really struggling with it. Any suggestions above what I already do?

Magnesium, acidophilus, psyllium husk, stool softeners and laxatives, magnesium citrate (once a week), collagen peptides.

    I also suffer from IBS-C, and it’s horrible. My gastroenterologist has me taking a cap full of Miralax everyday, and if needed take it twice daily. He also put me on Linzess and that worked great. 

    I also have Celiacs  Disease, and I have found when I omit all gluten from my diet my intestines are much happier and I am not as constipated. 

    Hang in there. Gut issues suck.

  • If your primary issue is constipation adding 1/2 tsp of MCT oil will do the trick. Start at 1/2 tsp or you will get the runs and then work your way up. My brother suffers from constipation due to Parkinson's Disease and this was a godsend for him.
