HelpForIBS.com is the patient support site of Heather's Tummy Care. We
are dedicated to serving people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Our
mission is to offer education, support, and help that allows people with
IBS to successfully manage their symptoms through simple, safe and
effective lifestyle changes.
Heather Van Vorous, an IBS sufferer since age 9, is the company founder
and CEO. She is the author of the two best-selling IBS books in North
America, Eating for IBS and The First Year: IBS. HelpForIBS.com carries
these books as well as organic medical foods and other products
specifically for IBS symptoms. Heather's Tummy Care is also available
across the US in pharmacies, health food stores, and medical/dietitian
practices.
HelpForIBS.com is the largest IBS organization in the world. We were
founded in 2001 and we provide: a free twice-monthly IBS Newsletter,
seminars and classes, dietary brochures for patient distribution by
health care professionals, and Heather Cooks!, a healthy cooking show on
Seattle television and DVD. Much of our work is based on Heather's
development of the first and only comprehensive IBS dietary guidelines
and recipes, an achievement which has earned her numerous awards and
accolades.
Heather's Tummy Care also provides the only patient-expert moderated IBS
Message Boards on the internet with forums for diet, recipes,
hypnotherapy, yoga, Crohn's and Colitis, plus the IBS Research Library.
We support and coordinate the formation and continuation of local
in-person IBS support groups across the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia,
and New Zealand.
Our company is committed to caring for the environment and society. To
that end, we are an organic certified facility and we feature organic
certified products in re-fillable / re-useable containers. If you have
IBS, come join us and realize that you are not all alone!
