Cannot understand what is being said before the word water, she says “one quart of ______water”. Sounds like condom, but that is obviously not the right word. Can somone interpret?

@beatledude I agree I have it too and I also vomit when I have the stomach attach as we call it my mom and brother and daughter have it too. People need to not talk about something when they know nothing. People who have this know how bad it is! This is a debilitating condition.

@XforeverlongingX It’s a term to describe a condition. Likely from GMO food and soy products. Kind of like stupid describes yourself. It’s not a condition, it’s a description.

@XforeverlongingX

PT 2. Lastly, it has nothing to do with allergies…Many people can have Spag. and meatballs 24/7 with no problems…and then BAM! It can cause spasms and you’re down. IBS is real and unfortunately…most people don’t understand the ‘complexed’ simplicity of it.

@XforeverlongingX IBS is absolutely a real diagnosis…that’s like saying a Migrain is a BS diagnosis. IBS has actually been called the ‘Migraine’ of the colon. It is a function disorder, yet not a disease. For some people, the colon spasms shut…think of a garden hose when some idiot steps in the middle-the flow stops or slows. When you let go, it bursts forward because of the pressure of the water being held back. Now imagine that was your colon. It is one of the most painful conditions.
