Delia -- Yes, this got recommended to me almost a year ago and I ordered a bottle. It's awfully expensive -- $42 or something (was it for two months? Don't remember). I don't think I was much helped by it, although I was new to IBS and gradually, my symptoms became less drastic as the months went on. The principle is that the finely-micronized amino acids from the fresh water white fish can actually get to places in the intestinal tract where they can repair the damaged lining from diarrhea. They gave it to babies in Uruguay for years and it did work for them, and I believe the man who is manufacturing it here is totally sincere. However, when Flux (our board science-buff) came on and said it was about the same as taking powdered milk, I decided it wasn't worth the expense. P.S. Delia, I just saw your second post. One thing it did for me was give me a terrific amount of energy, which was absolutely needed at the time because I had lost so much weight. Hmm-- might not be a bad idea, now. It has a certain ingredient which is also said to be good for bipolar disorder in it, too. [This message has been edited by Persistance (edited 03-31-2000).]
