I want to nip this falsehood in the butt as I am studying this for my PhD.

IBS has many causes one main of is people having an autoimmune disease due to the bodily production of anti-vinculin from molecular mimicry of the toxin causing food poisoning anti-cdtb.

The remaining causes are related to MAST cell destabilization, SIBO, etc. Anxiety is thought to play a role in symptom management in the same way having being anxious about a broken foot will make you foot hurt more.




I have IBS because of severe social anxiety, but I don't have any anxiety because of IBS.
