i read it somewhere but i am reluctant to go and spend the money if they are rubbish.

i suffer with constipation, constant wind and bloating, sometimes the constipation alternates with diarrhoea and I also suffer with awful acid reflux which causes me to cough at night and keeps all awake.

help please.

I'm not sure but I know people who have found these helpful

This lady came and did a talk on Aloe Vera products for me and some friends - we were more talking of skin problems but I think she mentioned IBS - she might be able to help (change the ' at ' to '@'....)
