For Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea "It took almost two weeks of two packets a day, but so very worth it. I had a daily headache for about the first week. I'd been having severe gut issues for a year. I had just given up on eating during my workday because of unpredictable diarrhea. My life centered around bathroom availability. I have decreased to one packet as per my doctor. I feel more hopeful than I have in a very long time."

For Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea "I was diagnosed with collagenous colitis/microscopic colitis in October 2016. After going through two different steroids and 'diets' to try to improve my leaky gut, this has proven the best yet. I've been on it since November 2016, one packet a day. I was wary at first about taking it because it isn't well studied, but after three days of being on it, I wasn't having any more diarrhea. After about a week, the cramping went away. I still need to watch what I eat (not too much dairy, wheat, etc.), but this makes it to where I can at least enjoy a meal without having to run to the bathroom twelve times a day. I've had, I'd say, three 'flare-ups' in between starting this and now, which are not even near as bad as they were without this medicine."

For Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea "I have experienced IBS-D for 5 years with abdominal pain, diarrhea, bloating, weight loss, and food restrictions. I had gone to multiple doctors and clinics. The usual antibiotics and low fermentation diets were recommended. To no avail. So frustrated and depressed, I finally went to my integrative medicine doctor, who is an internal medicine doctor, not a GI doc. She gave me samples of EnteraGam packets. I readily took them, and after one packet, the next day I had a normal stool! I thought it may be a fluke, but I took it twice a day for 6 months and now am just taking them 3 times a week. It's been 9 months and I have my life back. I am eating dairy, grains, raw salads, and beans! No pain and no diarrhea! This has been a miracle for me and hope it will help others in their journey of healing their gut."

For Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea "I have been taking EnteraGam, along with Carafate daily for about 6 months. I had pretty immediate results for abdominal pain, diarrhea, gastritis, and all of the damage from years of food allergy issues. I agree it is not a free pass to eat rubbish food, as you will get ill again. The gastro docs and the pharmacy did the leg work, so I got it for a very reasonable price. I am so grateful to these people for the relief."

For Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea "I have ongoing difficulties with reactions to many foods. Constant stomach aches, bloating, constipation, cramps, diarrhea, frequent bowel movements. This med has created more of the above and gives me a headache. I really have no idea if I should stick with it for the 4 - 6 weeks to see if the lining of my gut will heal? I'm desperate and disgusted with my condition, and the lack of response to this 'medicinal food.'"

For Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea "EnteraGam not only didn’t help my Crohn's symptoms, but caused increased cramping, diarrhea, pain, and nausea. I took it for 5 months at varying doses, up to 4 times a day. Be aware that there is 5 grams of dextrose in every serving."
