I had IBS and then saw a commercial for Activia, supposed to help with that, Jamie Lee Curtis did the commercial.
I got some and it worked. Wrote the company how great it was and low and behold they stopped running the ad.
If someone cannot take milk products, I suggest Glutathione.
I take Glutathione 250. The Mother of all antioxidants.

Dark chocolate for high cacao % is the best edible antioxidant. Cover coffee beans with the chocolate and it’s even better.
Probiotics was one of the first things my gastroenterologist recommended (I have IBS-C), but unfortunately it made my symptoms worse. He said it works for about half his patients.
I ended up controlling symptoms with a low FODMAP diet, plus eliminating corn, soy, wheat, mired meat, raw vegetables. I was down to less than 10 foods I could eat without major issues. It took about two years and a lot of trial and error to get it under control.
Needless to say, I’m like a kid at Christmas now. I am most excited about being able to eat red meat again!
