Every time I go away, I get a bad stomach (I have IBS). It always flares up - cramps, bloating,diarrhoea. Even when I'm really careful what to eat. It does happen at home sometimes when I go to a restaurant and over eat, so I do try and be really sensible.
Due to go on holiday next week. Does anyone recommend anything I can take to stop the flare up? I always take peppermint tea with me and it does help a little bit, but not all the time. I'm sick of always having to think about my stomach! 🤦🏼‍♀️

Biokault probiotics. Take them for at least a week beforehand. You can buy them from Amazon or Boots.

I've never taken probiotics. Nothing to lose 😀

Colofac is a wonder drug for me, take before and after meals.
