Keep a food diary to track the foods that you eat and how they made you feel.

Food diaries in general may help just to be observant, to have documentation - you might pick up a pattern or pick up a clue" Record everything that you put into your mouth, along with a description of how you felt afterward.

Download or read book My IBS Journal written by Kenneth McClelland and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-13 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This journal is dedicated to all of the men, women, and children around the world, who suffer with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). IBS is a long term ailment that most sufferers deal with in silence, while the rest of the world continues on around them. Aside from perhaps their dearest friends, it's not an affliction that most people can easily talk about with others.Although there are no distinct causes for IBS, some of the common symptoms that many of those with IBS share, are that it's often very painful; it consumes a lot of time; it requires lifestyle and dietary changes; it can affect people differently; it's unpredictable even to those who've had it for a while; and as of yet, there is no cure for IBS.By scanning the pages to look back at your pain levels and other important details, this journal can provide you and your caregivers with a better picture of your overall condition so that you can make whatever adjustments are needed to your medications or dietary habits, to help you live a fuller life.My hope is that this journal will prove useful in identifying what may be triggering your bouts of IBS, and highlight other details that you can use to spot trends, such as what medicines, foods, spices, or day to day activities may be helping you - or harming you.

Download or read book My IBS Journal Lite written by Kenneth McClelland and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-12 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's estimated that as many as 45 million people in the United States have been diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and worldwide, the number is perhaps more than a billion people who suffer with it on a daily basis.If you have IBS, let me suggest to you that journaling can be beneficial to your health. For example: How were you feeling last Friday? What about two weeks ago? What foods did you eat? What medications did you use? When was your last medical appointment or doctor visit? Most people can't recall the answers, and understandably so, which is why keeping a symptom journal such as this will help give you near total recall.This shortened version of the one year journal can be helpful for a number of reasons, such as helping you track your pain levels day by day; tracking the medicines you took; showing what foods you've consumed; bowel movements; stress levels; medical appointments - and more. The information gathered can help you identify foods that may be aggravating your condition, highlight activities you may want to curtail, or show you what medicines or therapies may or may not be working. This may also be a big help to your caregivers who can flip through the pages to spot changing trends in your pain and discomfort levels, while giving them a better picture of what you're doing that may be helping, or hurting you.
