Synopsis
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), the "common cold of the digestive system", affects 30 per cent of all people at some time in their lives. IBS is often triggered by stressful emotional situations and medical practitioners routinely recommend psychological treatment for the condition. This self-help book approaches IBS from a psychological perspective. The author explains the basic biology of IBS, describes some of the common medical treatments and shows readers how to identify troublesome foods and establish healthy new eating habits. She goes on to show readers how to monitor symptoms, develop strategies for managing flare-ups, and challenge the thoughts and emotional reactions that prevent them from recovering from IBS and having a healthy new life.
