IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) is a collection of symptoms including prolonged periods of recurrent abdominal pain, bloating, and constipation alternating with diarrhea. Unlike colitis or other inflammatory bowel disorders, there is no inflammation present. Some people can manage and even prevent their IBS symptoms by restrictive diets; however, emotional upsets such as anxiety, anger, and depression are known triggers.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease is abdominal pain accompanied with bloody diarrhea brought on by high levels of stress and also irritated by food choices. Food sensitivity testing helps to determine what is causing the inflammation and irritation within the bowel and is used to help determine a comprehensive treatment plan.
