For as long as I can remember, I’ve been navigating the ups and downs of living with irritable bowel syndrome-constipation (IBS-C), a journey that began in my late teens and followed me through my twenties.

Misdiagnoses and chronic discomfort were constant companions, but it wasn’t until my thirties — thanks to figuring out which supplements and holistic approaches worked for me — that I finally found some relief. The turning point came in 2022, when my symptoms intensified, threatening my daily life. Through research, professional guidance, and a commitment to self-care, I’ve curated a list of 10 supplements that help me manage my IBS and support my overall wellness.

As previously reported in PS, supplements are not meant to replace food, and it’s recommended that you discuss any new supplements with your doctor.

As a Latina, finding products that resonate with my needs hasn’t been easy, but these editor-approved solutions have transformed my gut health journey. I’m excited to share them with you, and I hope they bring you the same relief and empowerment. Ahead, you’ll find all the supplements that have healed my gut and have allowed me to live a healthier and happier life.
