Can you recommend a vegetarian diet for an 82 year old with chronic irritable bowel syndrome?


Answer:
You need a high fibre diet eating at least 5 fruit and vegetables a day.
Avoid spicy foods and coffee as these irritate your gut
6-8 glasses of water a day
reduce alchohol intake
No carbonated drinks
Linseed
Peppermint tea
Multivitamins and minerals
You may be able to take buscoan which relieves cramps but you have to ask your doctor.
Natural yogurt without sugar
Tofu, nuts
As we get older we lose the capacity to digest the food, I did an experiment with my self, you may try it TRY BABY FOOD WITH ALL THE MINERALS AND VEGETABLES,. It worked for me.
