Summary

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a chronic (long-term) digestive disorder that gives rise to symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhoea and/or constipation. Although the condition is estimated to affect almost 20% of the population, the conventional treatment options for sufferers are very limited. As a result, many individuals can suffer from uncomfortable and debilitating symptoms with little hope of relief.

But help is at hand. Through his extensive research and experience with literally thousands of patients over the last 15 years, Dr John Briffa reveals the common causes of IBS and how to combat it using natural, self-help strategies. In this broadcast Dr Briffa covers:

  • What IBS is (and what warning signs need to be looked out for)
  • The common causes for IBS including food sensitivity and gut organism imbalance
  • How certain symptoms that can pinpoint the underling problem
  • What tests can be appropriate for getting to the root of the problem
  • The self-help strategies are most effective for combating IBS
  • Which changes to diet and natural supplements are most likely to offer lasting relief

    Dr Briffa is a lecturer, broadcaster and an award-winning health writer. He is a former columnist for both the Daily Mail and the Observer and has contributed to over 80 magazines and newspapers in the UK and abroad. He has written six books on the subject of nutrition and natural health. He is in private practice in London, and his aim is to assist individuals identify and remedy the underlying cause of long-term symptoms and conditions. www.drbriffa.com
