If you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome you know how horrible this illness can be, the pain and bloating, the urgency to get to the loo and the rest of problems associated with it! I found that taking acidophilus tablets helped loads, basically they are the same as drinking yakult or actimel yoghurts only cheaper and longer shelf life!
Peppermint capsules or peppermint tea also helps with the spasms and colic type pain!
