Herbal Duo Knocks Out IBS
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) can wreck your quality of life.
Abdominal pain, diarrhea, and gas can be embarrassing at best and debilitating at worst.
No one really knows what causes IBS… which can make treating it a complicated guessing game.
Fortunately, researchers have identified two unusual compounds that work together to provide powerful RELIEF for IBS symptoms.
The new study included 146 IBS patients. Half took standard IBS medications. The other half took IBS meds plus a combination of the herbs berberine (200 mg) and curcumin (49 mg) twice a day.
After two months, those taking the berberine and curcumin combo had a stunning 50 percent improvement in…
- abdominal pain,
- bloating,
- and quality of life.
Remarkably, nearly two-thirds were able to stop taking their IBS meds.
This was a small, preliminary study, but the results are VERY impressive.
And since both berberine and curcumin have a long history of safety, I wouldn’t hesitate to talk to your doctor about adding them to your own IBS regimen.
Berberine is well-studied for helping to regulate blood sugar control.
Curcumin is renowned for its natural inflammation-busting benefits.
Anything that has the potential to safely reduce symptoms while getting you off prescription drugs is a win in my book.
