I’m a brand new runner but also an IBS sufferer. Sending sympathy and hope things settle down.

Thank you

I have suffered with IBS for years but have been taking peppermint oil supplements since end of March and *touch wood* have been symptom-free since April!

I mite try that

It's defo worth a try! I got mine from Nature's Best online

It might not be your ibs, there is a thing called runners gut that a lot of people get when they run, you might find information on the net about it.

Try some ginger to help settle it and make sure you are drinking lots of water.

Good luck.
