IF has completely cured my IBS-C

I've struggled with IBS-C since I was a teen and it became a real source of anxiety for me. I was seeing a dietician with some success, but even a high fibre diet of 30 - 45 grams a day eventually stopped working and I was back where I started. With only a week of 16:8 fasting, my constipation was completely fixed. Finished my first 36 hour fast this morning (it was easy once I got past my normal 12pm eating time). I'm now doing 32:12 for the rest of the week. I haven't been able to find a clear reason for why fasting has fixed this problem. I would have thought it would make my constipation worse. Does it have to do with giving the digestive system a rest? via /r/intermittentfasting https://ift.tt/W78ApkE https://ift.tt/XRxV2Sw
