I have been diagnosed with ibs since I was a teenager.. Well now in my mid-20's this ibs-c is really getting to me...
I dont take anything for it and the times I have it just seem to make me more constipated.
Well just recently I've tried 2tbs of costor oil?.. Well....lets just say I'm never taking that again😵😷😭
Recently a friend of mine told me to try magnesium and also gave me a bottle of it.. I haven't tried it but I'm real tempted to tonight.


👉My question is has anyone tried magnesium for ibs before?? And if so, does it work??

I was told to avoid using magnesium, instead to use fiber supplemets and add more fiber to my diet as well as an appropriate probiotic (some strains can cause C and some can cause D from my understanding) I also drink a small glass of prune juice and take a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil daily, this entire combination seems to be helping so far. I've been having less issues with severe straining as a result. Regular daily exercise has also helped.

Best of luck to you!

I use Magnesium oil or gel. I rub some on my back or across my tummy at night and the next day....success! It's much gentler than the oral magnesium.

Try jigsaw health magnesium. It's very gentle.
