Irritable Bowel

Irritable Bowel

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common functional bowel disorder that can be accompanied by abdominal pain, gas, bloating and irregular bowel movements (diarrhea and/or constipation). Although the exact cause of IBS is not always clear, factors such as stress, diet, intestinal flora and an oversensitive nervous system in the intestines often play a role.

In this collection you will find supplements that are specifically tailored to support digestion and intestinal comfort in people with a sensitive or irritable bowel.

Possible causes and mechanisms

• Disrupted intestinal flora (dysbiosis)
• Oversensitive nerve pathways in the intestines
• Reduced barrier function of the intestinal wall
• Low level inflammatory responses
• Incorrect fermentation of carbohydrates (FODMAPs)
• Stress-related bowel activity

Supplements in this collection can support:

• Intestinal flora restoration with broad-spectrum probiotics or specific strains (such as Lactobacillus plantarum , Bifidobacterium infantis )
• Softening of the intestinal wall with substances such as L-glutamine, aloe vera or curcumin
• Gas and cramps with herbs such as peppermint oil, fennel and ginger
• Reduction of histamine load in histamine-sensitive IBS types
• Balance in the serotonin balance through intestinal-brain support with, among other things, magnesium or saffron extract

These supplements are designed to complement an irritable bowel-friendly diet and can make a difference in daily comfort.
