Giving it all that he’s got on Saturday evenings, Jamie Laing first prepared for the competition by addressing his IBS. What is this condition? And what are the symptoms?
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
Consultant Gastroenterologist at Bupa Cromwell Hospital, Dr Lisa Das said IBS “is very common”.
“It affects the whole of your gut,” she continued, which can lead to the following symptoms:
- Generalised abdominal pain
- Pain related to meals
- Alternating diarrhoea or constipation
“The treatment for IBS is actually quite difficult,” confessed Dr Das.
