Ugh! Thank you for validating this. I often start the day and am super productive for about 3 hours (or more depending on when I wake up) before being actually ready to eat around noon. And I have some friends who are like, “you need to eat, stop doing that, etc.” and I try to tell them that I feel better like this. This morning I tried to eat something light because I had a lot planned for the day but now 4 hours later I'm laying here bed ridden and will have to take a nap. Going to just listen to my body and what has been working for me instead of giving in to the pressures of others who don't understand what it feels like and that it's for medical benefit. I have IBS-C symptoms that I'm only just realizing a few weeks/ months ago may be related to my endometriosis diagnosis. I arrived at this video from watching one of your other videos on endo and I definitely agree that all of those things work. I was managing my symptoms without knowing it. They were things I did before I knew I had large endometriomas. And I was mainly doing them for mental health and IBS. Plus I cut out dairy years ago. One day the thought of beef repulsed me and chicken started to make me feel “odd.” So somehow I became pescatarian, lol. My brain and body were looking out for me. The “fasting” part was natural and I never realized I was doing it until this video. I'm going to start birth control for the first time ever to slow the growth of the endometriomas now, hopefully after that in conjunction with everything else I've been doing my quality of life will return to at least where it was before the condition progressed. Long story short, this the second video of yours I have watched and I have now subscribed because I relate so much. Cheers!

i agree with all of these points! The mental clarity is the best thing

I tried intermittent fasting yesterday and noticed no bloating. Today I snacked all day and I am bloated and so uncomfortable right now!! I think I have converted! Finally something that helps my ibs.

Omg i have IBS to and i struggle so badly with sleep!!! My doctor gives me amitriptiline ( i think thats how its spelled) to aid with stomach cramps, sleep and mood swings which apparently come with IBS as well.

This week I’ve started fasting fingers crossed it works for me

My wife has recently been diagnosed w/ IBS. She also has been tested for food allergies and is allergic to quite a few things so she has a limited diet. Have you heard or have you experienced benefits w/ allergies and intermittent fasting? Thank You.

I am going to start in a couple weeks.. sick of ibs... i think this is the best shot to get rid of it

How long did it take for the bloat to go down?

Starting this today because im going to Guatemala in 9 days and ive had excruciating pain. All im gonna eat is some fruit and peanut butter today.

Can fasting helps for ibs with direhaa??

How long did it take for you to see an improvement in ibs bloating? Thank you

Can I email you and ask questions ?

That’s weird cause I’ve been doing IF a week now and it’s making my Ibs and constipation much, much worse due to large meals.
