CAT, I've been blessed with a cast-iron digestive system, so I can't personally attest to any one thing. I have read that the healthiest groups of people on the planet have some form of a fermented food as a near-daily part of their diets - think miso, tempeh, sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir ... and this is suspected to be a major component in gut health. I HAVE been a member of the Life Extension Foundation for many years, and I find their website, lef.org, to be a huge resource for me. If you go there and search on IBS, you will find lots of studies, and recommendations for supplements. Good luck!
