We examined how dietary guidance affects irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms and quality of life, particularly focusing on vitamin B12 intake. Our study involved 46 patients diagnosed with IBS based on established criteria, with 17 completing the entire program.
Through three sessions of personalized dietary advice, each lasting about 45 minutes, we found a significant reduction in IBS symptoms after the patients implemented the dietary changes. Their quality of life scores also improved notably. Although we noted an increase in vitamin B12 intake, it's important to emphasize that we did not isolate its effects from those of other dietary changes.
Interestingly, while our guidance helped patients enhance their overall nutrient intake, including vitamins and minerals, the increase in vitamin B12 specifically was the only change that reached statistical significance. However, we found no substantial differences in overall caloric or macronutrient intake among the participants.
In conclusion, while dietary guidance showed promising benefits for managing IBS symptoms and overall life quality, the impact of vitamin B12 alone remains unclear, as other dietary modifications may have played a role. Our findings suggest that individualized dietary counseling is a viable option in IBS management.

Fingertip relief
After suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome, I discovered this supplement. Within a week of taking it, the numbness in my fingertips reduced significantly, and a month later, it has completely vanished. The results might be due to the mild nature of my condition.

Numbness improvement
It's effective. I have been experiencing numbness in my toes due to Sjögren's syndrome, which my doctor deemed incurable. After taking 2 tablets daily (2,000mg) for six months, I've noticed gradual improvement. The tablets are sensitive to humidity, but storing them in a sealed pill case should help.

Slight hand improvement
I find these tablets delightful, with a berry flavour. To ensure absorption, I take about four 1,000mg tablets daily, chewing them lightly when they dissolve. I had numbness in my hands from carpal tunnel syndrome, and I've noticed a slight improvement since I began taking them.
