Update, my progress with apple cider vinegar with mother for IBS relief

Posted , 3 users are following.

I have been trying apple cider vinegar with mother on the advice of a friend for my IBS.  The first day was brilliant, I didn't hear a whisper out of my prolapsed bowel (I also suffer with this) and the IBS was calm, second day it wasn't too bad, I went three or four times, and the prolapse combined with the IBS I get usually means I go about ten times, that's even with codeine relief, which cuts it in half, from 20 and sends a message from my brain to my bottom not to poo so often, quite literally, it does this, I have found with long term use, and today was also very good, I didn't need to go all day then about an hour ago, holy camole, one massive poo followed by two massive farts, which sounded rather like a cat having a very long growl, but I feel overall the cider vinegar IS helping, given that I go about ten times usually, although the final Jury is probably out until further trials have taken place, by me, I mean.  National clinical trials would indicate it does help, in fact.

I was able to paint my labrador, quite well, I should add, and rose early and full of enthusiasm, today and am just about to sketch out some daffodils to paint tomorrow as I have a friend who has just told me she is very fond of them, and always takes an interest in my art/poetry videos and photography, so that's it, it seems to be helping, and I'll let you know if this trend continues.  Six years I've had the prolapse and accompanying IBS, and despite major surgery, very little has helped with the symptoms, including the surgery itself.  Best wishes, Fiona

    Can you please tell me when do you have it? Before bed or in the morning breakfast, after meal etc... thanks in advance and how about ACV only? Is it working as the same?

      It's best to have the mother with it, the apple cider vinegar helps  elliminate bad bacteria and the mother tops up the good, therefore its best to have both.  You can have it at any time of the day you wish, there are no hard and fast rules about it x

      Thank you. That combo should make it go down a little easier. I already ordered a bottle from Amazon.

      That's great Janet but in future you may want to consider ordering from Boots as thier Biona one is third price of the cheapest on Amazon, the product code, which you'll need as the product itself won't come up, I found, is 6036759, in case you want to make a note, good luck!!
