Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS, is a problem that affects mainly the bowel which is also called the large intestine. The bowel is the part of the digestive system that makes and stores stool. The word syndrome means a group of symptoms. IBS is a syndrome because it can cause several symptoms. For example, IBS causes cramping, bloating, gas, diarrhea, and constipation.
IBS is not a disease. It's a functional disorder, which means that the bowel doesn't work as it should.

Yoga to manage IBS
Stress is an important influencing factor for IBS patients. All who suffer from it agree that when stress increases, so do the IBS symptoms. That, in turn, saps the energy from the patient. Practicing yoga will initially help lessen the existing symptoms, and, if practiced regularly, will result in less frequent and intense occurrence IBS. A bonus is that there will be no undesired side-effects, as can be possible when medication is required.
