Irritable bowel syndrome is one of the most common related conditions to interstitial cystitis. Most IC patients struggle with IBS symptoms including diarrhea, constipation and/or a combination of the both. Amazingly, IBS has a surprising similarity to IC. IC involves nerve hypersensitivity in the bladder. IBS involves nerve hypersensitivity in the bowel. Diet can play a huge role in both conditions. Heather Van Vorous is an IBS patient who wrote the best selling book on IBS: 'First Year: IBS'. Her product line 'Heathers Tummy Care' are simple, affordable and helpful! We're excited to be carrying this new product line! I use Heather's Acacia fiber daily and it works well to keep my IBS stable and comfortable. - Jill
