Having the confidence that you can keep your IBS under control is key so with a little advance planning by adding these to your holiday checklist can ensure sufferers have a worry-free and relaxing break.
Products such as DiarSafe® (16 pack £5.39 exc VAT), Imodium® (the traveller’s favourite – 18 pack £5.87 exc VAT), FibreSure® Psyllium 100 Capsules (£8.99) and Pro-Bion® (150 pack £18.50 exc VAT) are perfect to help you control your IBS whilst on your holidays and can help reduce any unwanted baggage. The products can all be conveniently packed away in your hand luggage bearing in mind airport security restraints and frequency of dosage.
1. DiarSafe® - a natural alternative to Imodium® that help’s you control the symptoms of diarrhoea; based on a special type of yeast “Saccharomyces boulardii” available in capsule form. Unlike pro-biotic bacteria, Sacch boulardii easily survives stomach and bile acids and appears to help re-establish a normal gut function which would be clearly beneficial to Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) sufferers
2. FibreSure® Psyllium Capsules - 100% natural fibre supplement capsules that you can take everyday to help your body get the fibre it needs to keep it healthy and balanced. When on holiday your meals often get out of a routine, and taking fibre capsules may help keep your digestive systems regular – especially as capsules are easier to take than sachets and other forms of soluble fibre.
3. Imodium® – the traveller’s favourite! This product helps ‘bung’ you up so at least you can carry on with your holiday activities!
4. Pro-Bion® - a capsule form pro-biotic without the calories of pro-biotic yoghurt drinks that doesn’t need refrigeration!
Your holiday should be the most relaxing time of the year so don’t let your IBS and digestive health turn it into a stressful nightmare! These products are flexible, packable and effective – perfect to ensure a relaxing break.
Top tip: Keep panic free on holiday! For IBS emergencies when on holiday remember that most major chain hotels have an easily accessible toilet from the main reception area; they’re normally very clean, conveniently located and free! And don’t feel guilty, you could be a customer one day!
