There are two forms which often alternates:
the variety" spastic ", characterized by constipation and pain and the variety" diarrhea "with its post-prandial diarrhea.
While the first form is caused by spasmodic contractions of the colon, the second is related to a decrease in contractile activity. There are often significant bloating, flatulence a, borborygmi and dyspepsia.
Often, in fact, implementing this type of subject, having been "punished" by acute symptoms of swelling and pain, a diet very low in fiber. But in this way does nothing but increase the constipation, which in turn is a risk factor for irritable bowel syndrome.
the form characterized by constipation, soluble fiber intake, especially mucilage, and the assumption of large quantities of liquids, may be effective in reducing pain and normalize bowel function. Initially, the contribution fiber may aggravate bloating: graduate this introduction may avoid this drawback, however, will be resolved shortly.
In the case of bowel function or alternate forms of diarrheal type, once excluded concomitant diseases (eg
a 'food intolerance) should be deleted various irritating factors. In these cases the fibers, if properly chosen, will help to normalize bowel movements. While it is true that in the event of the abolition of the food intolerance complained to an improvement in symptoms, it should be remembered as in the case of CI there is considerable individual variation: the same food may worsen the symptoms of a patient as it can be well tolerated by others. And 'Well, then, do not stick to rigid schemes, but learn to identify and use products that are better tolerated. It will be important to establish rules

The diet must be individualized and, of course, normal calories.

And finally, here is an excerpt from an article by Umberto Cornelli
on Biological Medicine from July to September 2004 on:
"
bovine colostrum is known for its protective activity tract human gastrointestinal and content of substances that stimulate the growth of muscle mass. In addition, it has a protective effect against reactive component-inflammatory disorders. However, not all types of bovine colostrum appear to have similar activity because they are derived from animals raised under conditions in different ways. For this purpose we have carried out this study on two standardized products one U.S. and one German. The results of this study indicate good therapeutic effect of colostrum, however, dependent on its composition. The substantive differences between the two types of colostrum the proportion lipid. It was always believed that the lipids were aggravating a component of the ICS. In reality it is reviewing this approach in As it was observed that among the lipids, the so-called conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) have significant activity antireattiva and even protective of certain forms of experimental cancer. It 'is well known that the CLA content in significant quantities only in milk and colostrum of ruminants and that its production comes from the type of feed the animal. An attempt was made to supplement the animals with fish oil in order to obtain milk richer in CLA, raising its proportion than 0.5% of total lipids found in milk and colostrum. You may notice that if he made a simple comparison of before and after with only the placebo, the data obtained sarebero significant respect to the reduction of diarrhea symptoms and for the pain. " In practice, the placebo data were equally good, though slightly lower. This shows the value of the emotional component in the SCI. "
