Konsyl Original Helps a Dietitian With IBS

"I first started to notice the symptoms of IBS at the age of 23, inconveniently the same day my husband proposed to me. On a daily basis, I would experience abdominal pain, cramps, and bloating. As a dietitian, I couldn't understand why I was experiencing such awful constipation when I ate a near perfect diet, rich in fruits and vegetables. As time passed, I noticed that the symptoms would intensify during periods of high stress- even during my wedding and honeymoon. While talking with a patient that had IBS, it dawned on me that I was suffering from the same symptoms that she had. (Light bulb!) I had Irritable Bowel Syndrome!

For my patients with IBS and constipation, I always recommend a high fiber diet. But as a vegetarian, I knew I was eating about as many veggies as I could handle in one day, and I wasn't feeling any better. So I started to look for a good fiber supplement, and I found it in Konsyl. I like that it has no extra fillers or artificial sweeteners that can exacerbate IBS. I started taking 1 tsp. each morning before going to work, and my IBS resolved immediately! I still take it once or twice a day and my symptoms have completely disappeared. As a Registered Dietitian, I now recommend Konsyl to all my IBS patients. It helped me return to a normal life, and I'm sharing this story in hopes that it might help other IBS sufferers as well."
