With IBS you should be taking Omega-3 EFA's 1000-1500 mg capsule twice daily. To keep your supplement purchases affordable, I recommend Puritan's Pride, Buy 1 get 1, or 2 free, Buy 2, get 3 free, and Free Shipping. you need a good multivitamin, that is also a complete multimineral, If you're over 40 you need Vitamin D3, 2000-5000 IU daily, plus Calcium Citrate 500 mg twice a day, Vitamin E, but for Safety no more than 400 IU daily, B-Complex with B-12 one daily. Vitamin C, 6000 mg Daily, 3000 am 3000 PM. I've never found a recommendation for more then that that I thought was believable That's a good basic supplement plan. There are a number of BCAA, Branch Chain Amino Acids that are helpful. I take L-Carnitine, 1000 mg two a day in the morning, never in the evening or at night or they'll interfere with your sleep. L-Carnitine is for Mental Alertness. The others I take are for special needs of mine, L-Arginine 2-3000 mg daily for circulation. I buy Body Builders NOS which is 3000 mg L-Arginine caplets. When I'm weight lifting I take 3-5 grams daily. I also use Whey Isolate Protein Powder, mixed with Casein Protein Powder, two drinks daily. With IBS Protein Drinks would be wise, especially since you're limited in the foods you can eat. I also take Gluclosamine Sulphate, 1500 mg, twice daily, for arthritic joints. Olde Guy Ahes n' Pains.
For muscle building I take Buffered Creatine capsules...easier on the gut. I take 1500 mg daily.
Start out slowly with supplements They will definitely make you feel better. I've been buying the supplements above for years. They cost me $550-$650 a year. They are legitimate medical deductions for IRS, and SSA, when accompanied by a doctor's prescription.
Hope all that helps.
