I have IBS-PI....its "D" predominant though. I have been experimenting with much stuff since last 2 years. I finally can say i have found a product which gives me 100% relief from my D symptoms an. Since the last 30 days going for 1 BM per day (3 and 4 on the Bristol Stool Scale). My schedule is 2-3 colostrum capsules in morning on empty stomach 30 min prior to breakfast and taking lactobacillus sporogenes powder with it.And just 1 capsule 30 min before dinner without any probiotic. i take a proiotic of mixed strains once a week only.Also would like to tell you that i am following a normal diet since 25 days. i had tears in my eyes after the BM, never felt better....rather normal.... I just want to share with you cause I want all of you reading this to get rid of your symptoms. I pray to god to give everyone here on this forum their normal stress free,,, happy go lucky life back.Its also cured my GERD and hyperacidity totally...... and my flatulence ie gas is cured 90%...although i think 10% is the normal amount produced....Please people give colostrum capsules a try.... Also if you search research articles you will find that colostrum increases the mucosal lining and thus decreases permeability of intestine so that allergic reactions are reduced....Also it maximizes absorption of nutrients due to increased mucosal lining........there are many scientific articles related to colostrum.Other thing most important,,,,,I met a Doctor, he is a MD in qualification, he himself suffered from ulcerative colitis, IBS-D,,,, He took colostrum capsules for 1 year and his colonoscopy after 1 yr treatment showed NO ULCERS!!!! I was excited to hear this from the doctor himself....He takes colostrum capsules everyday as a maintainance dose....it is because of him i was introduced to colostrum.Guys you decide whats best for you,,,,I just shared my genuine experience.....Love you all, wish you a speedy recovery and a normal happy life ..will pray to god for everyone suffering from IBS-D...Take care.P.S - i also read the secret from rhonda bryne...its good for inspiration

Thank you for posting this, cooldude. I'm very happy for you that you're feeling better and i hope you continue to do well!I suffer from IBS-PI so i think i'm going to look in to what you've just mentioned because it sounds worth a try. Many thanks, James

[cooldude]

thanksyou james, I hope colostrum works for you too.my ibs-pi was due to food poisoning and then antiiotics IBS-PI leaves us with a dysbiosis,,,a gut without proper bacterial balance and inflammation which causes increased permeability of intestine which in turn generates allergic response to food.Also include a probiotic. It will flourish the normal flora....Earlier i was feeling my intestine was kind of leaky and weak. Now i am getting a healthy feeling. Its really helpingThe persistent diarrhea also damages the mucosal lining. Colostrum increases the mucosal lining (this can explain how it heals ulcerative colitis).Here are research papershttp://jn.nutrition.org/content/131/4/1256.shorthttp://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1046/j.1365-2036.2002.01354.x/fullhttp://www.ajcn.org/content/72/1/5.shorthttp://www.icnr.org/home-page/colostrum-is-safe-and-effective-what-one-of-the-worlds-leading-physicians-has-to-say.html

Hi cooldude,Thanks for posting this information as I have been reading up on colostrum lately and was considering trying it myself, just wanted to know what do u mean by Ibs-pi? What dose the pi stand for? Also can u please provide me with the names/ brands of the supplements you were you using. As I have no idea of which brand or type I should try, that would be greatly appreciated. Or if you have any recommendations or any specific details I should be aware of when trying these products?ThanksMo

Whats colostrum for? Whats the powder for that you take? I have looked online they is loads different colostrum does it have to be on perscription? I am willing to try anything for the D at the moment. Thanks pi= post infection ibs i think

[Jimbob94]

Thank you cooldude, that information definitely makes sense to me. I was just wondering, are you supposed to take the supplements on a permenant basis or can you stop taking them at some point? I'd really appreciate it if you could keep us updated with how you're doing with it all if that's alright!Thanks again,James

[cooldude]

HI, sorry for late reply....I am doing great with colostrum.IBS-PI is Irritable bowel syndrome post infectious....this kind of ibs occurs after a infection(food poisoning), gastroenteritis or a bad viral infection.....In IBS-PI......The basic reason is the damage to the intestinal mucosa due to chronic diarrhea along with the altered gut flora ....i had chronic mild inflammation in my endoscopy and colonoscopy was normal without a biopsy, but i bet there must be mild inflammation...there is microscopic inflammation to the intestine which also increases intestinal permeability........i have already put up links to how colostrum can benefit you.I use Immurich capsules but if you find them expensive you can search on amazon.com for alternative...i think symbiotics capsule is a good option based on review... (http://symbiotics.com/) Another question to take capsule or powder form....i go for capsule as it releases the colostrum in the intestine which is our main area of concern....powder form will require more dose so as to reach the intestine.....Also colostrum is suitable for lactose intolerant people so no need to worry.....Also if you read reviews people have been ibs symptom free for years after using colostrum.....but personally in addition to colostrum i recommend a moderate use of probiotics too, so that the bad bacteria dont grow......Lancschic there is no need of prescription for colostrum its just a supplement...just read my above posts it shows the benefits of colostrum also google search you will find many good things about colostrum.....colostrum is very healthy,,,,,i am sure it will stop your "D" once and foreverJimbob i am going to take the supplement forever because its healthy for hundreds of reasons,,,,,you wont get flu, cold or any silly allergies....its all the way beneficial...and yes i am doing very well,,,very normalWish you a speedy recovery and love you guys.....A hug to all..

[Lancschic]

Thanks cooldude i will try it i hope it works for me like it has for you. How many capsules a day? Do you take them with every meal?

[cooldude]

My schedule is 3 colostrum capsules in morning on empty stomach 30 min prior to breakfast and taking lactobacillus sporogenes powder everyday.And just 1 colostrum capsule 30 min before dinner without any probiotic. I also take a proiotic of mixed strains once a week .

[Lancschic]

Ok thank you for getting back to me

[Mo26]

Thanks for getting back with that information cooldude really appreciate it, also i wanted to ask you the brand of the probiotic powder that you are using and how much? the reason i ask is because i have had ibs for 3 years now and have tried various products with minimal effect, but i want to try things that other people have, that have proved beneficial for them. Thanks for getting back and wish u all the bestThanksMo

[Lancschic]

Hi mo ive looked online for that probotic powder he takes, i can't find it in the uk or the colotrum ones have you found them? Hes from the usa so he won't know the price here i'll keep looking online can you buy from holland and barrets or a supermarket do you know? Thanks in advance

http://www.thorne.co...h/prd~SF758.jsp -------lactobacillus sporogenes.... 2 capsules everyday http://www.vsl3.com/ ----- mixed strain probiotic...one capsule once or twice a week http://www.amazon.co...porogenes....Mo just see the review of this product it has kept someone symptom free for 5 yrs!!!! lactobacillus sporogenes is amazing... just read the product review(IBS, celiac, gluten allergy) ,, i need not explain much ...Take 1 capsule of VSL3 once or twice every week it will be enough to repopulate your flora and with the lactobacillus it will survive more...dont overdo vsl3 as it relieves constipation too.....Also a particular brand may or may not suit you......the main thing is while in a ibs-d flare... avoid supplements with flavours,,,try to take the simplest thing without artificial flavours and sweetners....Please follow a easy for the stomach diet when you start taking the colostrum and probiotics for at least 7-10 days....then later you can add small quantities of other food....i eat 3-4 slices of pizza without the "D" now....earlier i used to get bad indigestion and lots of gas by the same....All the best. these are dietary supplements so no need to worry for prescription,,,it is as good as taking vitamins.Also people who find this useful please share your views......
