Tummy troubles

Lonehare12
 

Looking for answers really because of a post about Kefir by  

Has anyone found anything that helps with a delicate tummy 

Things I’ve tried 

Goats milk Kefir
Sauerkraut….too potent…the homemade version anyway

Home made Sourdough 

Do you lot suffer with this thing that happens to me as soon as I get nervous my stomach starts acting weird ?

  • Stress absolutely affects your digestion.

    The best solution is to not be stressed, but this is not very practical, although you can perhaps try to get calmer.

    I tend to just not eat if I am stressed. I would think you want things that are not harsh on your stomach or cause irritation.

    Thanks

    There is a lot of helpful information here. I have had IBS since my early 20s, now I'm in my mid 40s. Stress is a massive factor which I think is why I have found the breathing so helpful. Being autistic, we are often stressed/anxious. Graphic warning, the amount of times I've been out in a social situation and I'm so anxious, I have to run to the toilet. Weirdly, I get social anxiety about urinating and can't go in public toilets, but now I'm older, when it's your bowels...you just have to go. Less fat, less produced food, eat more things good for your gut like veg and fruit. Basically, the more you can build the good bacteria in your stomach, the better. Definitely eating in smaller amounts. If I'm having a really hard time it can take me 15 minutes to eat a yogurt. But it helps my stomach. I also carry baby poo bags and wipes around as it makes me feel more secure. As above, we can't remove stress so it's working out all the little ways to make it a bit easier
