What Are IBS And IBD?

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder which means that there is a disturbance in bowel function. This can cause a great deal of discomfort and can really affect daily life with constipation, unwanted gas and abdominal pain impacting people’s social lives, levels of self-confidence and ability to work or travel. IBS affects around 10% of adults and women are more likely to have IBS than men.

IBS symptoms can vary in intensity and from person to person. People often suffer more concentrated symptoms after eating a large meal or if they are feeling stressed. You may recognise some of these common IBS symptoms:

  • Persistent abdominal pain
  • Constipation followed by diarrhoea
  • Bloating and unwanted gas
  • Nausea

For more information on bloating and how to manage this condition, read our blog: How to beat the bloat.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) – including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis – is a chronic inflammation of the digestive tract. It involves irritation and ulcers along the large intestine and rectum. IBD sufferers may experience these symptoms:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Diarrhoea
  • Fatigue
  • Rectal bleeding
  • Weight loss

This condition can be debilitating and can lead to serious complications. If you suspect you have either IBS or IBD, seeking medical advice is a good place to start in the management of your condition. While neither of these conditions can be completely cured, there is plenty you can do to improve your situation and how you feel from day to day. While you cannot cure IBS/IBD, you can help to keep your symptoms under control and live a happier life, practically symptom free.

Selecting the right foods to eat for either IBS or IBD is vital in managing your symptoms and controlling your condition on a daily basis. For more information about food and diet ideas, read our blog: 5 breakfast ideas for good gut health.

You might not realise that there is strong link between gut health and mental health, called the gut-brain connection. Having a healthy digestive system supports feeling well physically, mentally and emotionally. When choosing an IBS or IBD natural treatment that is right for you, it’s a good idea to find a product that gently treats your symptoms. You will want to restore gut health, nurture your immune and digestive systems and feel mentally strong as well. Simone Thomas Wellness award-winning supplements are naturally effective at nourishing and caring for your entire body, healing from the inside out.

Simone Says

IBS/IBD symptoms can be tough to manage on a day-to-day basis, both physically and mentally. If you are experiencing a flare up or been recently diagnosed with IBS/IBD then it may be worth looking into an anti inflammatory diet for six weeks. Anti inflammatory foods can help reduce and calm inflammation in the digestive tract which in turn will reduce your symptoms. Personally I would always recommend an anti-inflammatory diet long term for anyone with digestive issues but it's important to trial these for the short term initially to find what works for you.
