Of course, we are all different but I'd recommend trying it, it is cheap enough. Teas can be good, there is an Eaters Digest one I like. The product that I have found most helpful is called IBSuppress. It has ginger and fennel in it as well and it is easy to carry with me when we go to dinner or the mall. I have tried capsules (Pepo something) and didn't find that it helped as much. Good luck and a happy attack-free holiday wish to all! Peppermint oil helps me quite a bit.
