IBS Relief Supplement by Doctor MK's®, 90 Capsules of Enteric Coated Peppermint Oil, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Digestive Support Formula

Helpful with stomach problems.

I have literally tried so many other medications and solutions for dealing with IBS type symptoms and nothing worked like this product did. I truly did not want to write a quick response about it without testing it, but this long ago discovered remedy works wonders for me with just one tablet at bedtime nightly. My gas symptoms decreased dramatically and I can actually, measurably attribute it to this product. Peppermint oil in this form is incredible. A testimony to that is that moments ago on 12/19/2018, I ordered two more bottles. My first, almost used up bottle was two and half months before. I truly hope to be able to have access to this product for a lifetime!!! Try it it, you might be just as happy as I am!!!

Not sure yet if this really works as well as other product I use, but am going to continue trying as the price is much more affordable. Dosage is the same as other product, however I take one before meal and one awhile after and this seem to work best.

For years, I have suffered with IBS, but only last fall did my primary doctor suggest trying IBGard; and I did. It did help with many of my symptoms, but I thought the cost high and I did some Googling and found several alternatives, which I tried. Dr. MK's seemed to do much of the same as IBGard and was much less expensive. However, I decided to try a blend of the two and that worked much better. I use two caplets of Dr. MK's in the morning and evening, and use two IBGard capsules at noon and this regimen seems to work fine for me. However, a few days ago, one of the two or both of the Dr. MK's capsules broke open in my throat; and it felt like someone had poured acid into my throat. I could not catch my breath; it filled my lungs, sinuses, stomach, and everything was suddenly on fire at once. I screamed as best I could for help from my wife. I thought that I would die. I tried milk, bread, and both to clear my throat and help me catch my breath, which worked after several agonizing moments. It took all day to get my throat to feeling better. Be careful as you take this medication.

I waited to review this product to ensure I had enough experience with it to write an objective review. It appears most of the people submitting reviews are using it to treat IBS, it's intended use. In my case, I use it to help with diverticulosis. My GI doc recommended IBGuard to help with issues I was having with pain from sites where I had diverticulitis flareups. He said the pain is most likely from scar tissue at the site and IBGuard would relax the colon and provide relief. This is exactly what happened and I couldn't be happier, except for one thing. The price of IBGuard is over the top. I purchased this as a potential lower cost option based on the reviews from other users and am happy to report I get the same results from this product as I do from IBGuard.

I bought this and have been taking it for 4 days after I found drinking mint tea to be helping me feel better. I have been having major gut/digestion issues. Dr.s have taken me off dairy, gluten and the only thing that has worked is totally going off call carbs, uggg! But that stopped the getting sick. Still my gut felt horrible. I got this as a last resort and so far I love it! I am using it with anti-gas meds and have not felt this good in weeks. Please know I am also doing other things with my diet that have been helping, too, but I strongly feel this is helping with the cramping and horrible gut feeling. I take one with each meal. It, being mint, is a bit of an odd feeling inside, like you swallowed an Altoid. Kind of 'cold' on the inside, I guess, is how to say it? They have an almost vanilla flavor in your mouth when taking them and are not hard to swallow. I think if you are in uncomfortable tummy trouble that these are totally worth trying. I can't speak to them making your digestion better but, for me, they have really helped with the cramping and pain. The 'cool' feeling in the tummy is not bothering at all, just something to note. It kinda feels good! If this helps I also recommended it to my mom, too. Good luck and feel better! PS- If my issues sound like yours look up "yeast in the gut" and see if that might fit you. I am following it and finding it helpful.

I tried these for a non-specific IBS. The capsules had some effect, not entirely good. If you puncture one capsule (carefully, with eye and face protection!!), I think that you may see why. A hint of the oil inside on a spoon (1/16" flat drop) is enough to make an overpoweringly strong mint drink when diluted by two cups of liquid, and I love peppermint. I think some of my resulting GI upset that I had is from the large slug of peppermint oil in each capsule inflaming the sensitive lining of my GI tract. Bottom line: it did not work for me as an IBS treatment, but makes a great mint flavoring agent...

I cannot say enough good things about this product. I have suffered from gastro issues for almost 20 yrs, during any given week I would have diarrhea at least 3 times if not more and prescribed medications did nothing to relieve the problem. Someone told me about IBGard and while researching it on Amazon I found this with good reviews and a lower price, win-win. I have been using now for three weeks and have only had one instance of diarrhea while using which lasted only a day. I take just once a day during a meal, typically lunch. I found that taking it while eating helps with the peppermint flavor and burping that some people complained about. I think that eating some of a meal and then ingesting this and then covering with more food helps with that, in my non-medical opinion LOL. If you suffer from constant and persistent diarrhea then give this a try, I was not disappointed!!!
