Has IBS increased amongst the Gaming population?

Coogybear

My son has had some issues for a while and loves his gaming, but I wondered is IBS becoming more prevalent amongst those who are gamers.

My son indicates that he often has pain when he plays and has linked this to the tension surrounding getting caught by your oponant. Additionally, two of his friends (Also gamers) have issues.

Does IBS have an environmental factor I wonder?

Would be great to hear from other gamers or of any research found.

  • Yes, IBS or Incredible beautiful stomach has increase in the gaming community. It's because are hormones are affected by the blue light emitted on the screen which can encourage us to forgot to eat and leading to less than healthy eating habits that exist with last minute eating which trigger stomach problems. (Placing a blue light filter over the screen can help)

    Bowel movements require humans to move in order to stimulate and regulate the intestines, if your behind a screen your not moving as much.while playing the video games the children also forget to drink which means they can gulp down fluid later on which passess through them rapidly causing stomach ache. 

    Chicken nuggets have preservatives in them which often causes Irritated bowel syndrome when consumed regularly and large quantities, Ketchup has sweeteners in it too that are often used a laxatives. 

    Sensory processing disorder is common in autistic children or those with adhd. which may be causing them to tense their abdominals muscles in a non healthy way. causing stomach pain.
