Overview:
IBS is a chronic functional gastrointestinal disorder characterized by recurrent abdominal pain, bloating, and irregular bowel habits — either diarrhea, constipation, or alternating between both. Though not life-threatening, IBS significantly impacts quality of life. The exact cause is multifactorial, involving gut-brain axis dysfunction, intestinal hypersensitivity, microbiome imbalances, and stress. Supporting gut immunity and reducing inflammation can help manage symptoms.
