Why can't my body digest meat? Painful! What type of illness is it and why?If and when my food even touches meat or juices from meat, I must endure acute pain while my digestive tract is trying to process the food through my system. It is as painful as childbirth & sometimes worse. In addition I feel like I am have an allergic reaction for days after the consumption. I am very lithargic and ill. I have been to several drs for this - which they all call this irritable bowel syndrom and give me a bunch of pills to cover up and help me through.
I have now been a total vegetarian for two years and recently found accidophilus was very helpful to my digestive system.
Any ideas what this condition is or if there are other natural items to increase my digestive health. Will it go away with out all of those medicines that I refuse to take just to sedate my intestines?
Thank you for any and all help/ideas that you can provide.

I have seen specialist and have been through hundreds of tests. This is not cancer nor crohns.

Go see your doctor! You may have crohn's disease or diverticulitis...not fatal but need to be controlled.

Umm..maybe replace meat with things like portebello mushrooms. That's what me and some of my family does to replace steak. (vegetarians)

Have you ever thought it was the meat you eat. Try to stay off the pork and red meat and see if that helps. I know that works for me.

You could be lacking adequate amounts of enzymes necessary to digest proteins. Since meat is mainly protein, this would cause issues when eating it.

There are many IBS triggers. Different things may help one but hinder another. Please visit: http://www.ibsgroup.org/
I have IBS too and this is the most informative and friendly site I've seen.
Hope it helps.
