The most common theory is that IBS is a disorder of the interaction between the brain and the intestinal tract.
IBS is not a disease. It is a syndrome and its cause is unknown. To date, there is no recognised cure. The symptoms are abdominal pain, fatigue, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, changes in bowel habit (in the absence of any detectable organic causes). IBS is normally treated with medication and dietary adjustments and sometimes, if you are lucky, psychological intervention. There is research to support the IBS is caused by as an as yet to be discovered active infection. There are theories that a single cellorganism called Dientamoeba Fragilis that produces abdominal pain and diarrhea that could result in the onset and prolongation of IBS. Studies of IBS and its possible causes are constantly being carried out worldwide. In the UK Prof. Peter Whorwell, a gastroenterologist at University Hospital of South Manchester has achieved a 71% success rate with patients over a 5 year study using hypnosis.

Donald Moore believes that hypnosis is only skirting the problem and that his Whole New World Programme is producing a 97% success rate and could well in fact become a recognised cure in the future. Donald believes the disorder of the interaction between the brain and the intestinal tract is caused by the negative energy stored in the sufferer’s mind. The negative energy is reflected into the body 24 hours a day and causes this disequilibrium.
