bloating

I know bloating is a symptom of IBS, however does anyone else find it becomes even more of a problem after eating a main meal than when you have smaller meals.

i can't manage a normal sized dinner any more, i find eating little and often is much better. chew slowly too and don't "shovel it down" lol.

Yes definitely, I feel like a beached whale after dinner and stay that way for the rest of the evening.

I agree with you. Some say fruit first thing in the morning is best and not later than mid-day. Your comment about food combining reminds me of 'The Hay Diet' book I read in the 1980s. Have you seen that.? Currently I am not daring to have any fruit at any time and have only had porridge today but I need to boost my immune system as I had to have a root canal. This was 2 days before my latest flare-up now day 12..

I will try the Omega 3 I usually put garlic in food when not in the state I am currently and ginger too but these are both off the menu right now.

You root canal non comment intrigues me?

I have the same problem. Plus I cannot break the habit of eating late . I have found I have to burp myself because swallowed air becomes trapped gas. {Pahdon me :D }
