Before I started taking Ibsacol, my irritable bowel symptoms were so bad, that it was affecting my social life to the point were I couldn't go out, it affected my everyday life, by constantly feeling the need to use the toilet. I was getting very depressed, as I am an active person with two young children. When I saw an article about ibsacol, i decided to try it based on testimonials i had read, hoping they were true. After about two weeks my symptoms started to improve, and I realised they were true. I have now been taking Ibsacol for nearly two years, and only take four tablets each morning. I can honestly say it has changed my life. I can now go out to dinner with friends and not worry, I don't get any pain or bloating at all, it keeps me regular instead of going 4-5 times a day! I am truly grateful for this product.
