I was taking Cold Eeze for a cold, and noticed that during that time I had no flare ups of my IBS. Since Cold Eeze is a large dose of Zinc, I made the connection and started taking a Zinc/Calcium/Magnesium supplement a week ago and have had no flare ups since. This has been an amazing development for me.

That is one way of putting it. Though constipation can cause many unwanted side effects like bloating and nausea.

atleast if you are constipated you will not of malnourishment. Its when you are akin to a runny facuet is when your life is in danger. When the hole is clogged the boat doesnt sink.

My system likes to alternate on me too, though as of late I’ve been leaning more towards being constipated. I’d really only recommend it if a person really did have chronic D.

i think Zinc could help in situations of Diarrhea but could result to constipation. i havent tried it though as i am a hybrid of IBS-D and IBS-C :)
