==Thanks for the article==
I'm sorry there's no one here to thank. Anyone connected to Wikipedia already knows, intellectually, that it touches millions of lives. Let me make this a little more concrete. I was really laid low by dyspepsia last year: hurting, scared, debilitated. My GI specialist told me science didn't understand dyspepsia and he had no remedies to offer. I found this article while looking for my own answers, and I've just written the manufacturer to thank them for all the comfort it's given me over the past year. Note that this didn't even turn up on MEDLINE, as far as I know. So, all I am trying to say is that if you contribute knowledge to Wikipedia, you never know who it may help, or how much. Thank you.

==Nothing notable about this article==
As a professional herbalist, I see nothing notable about this. Whereas it may well be a useful combination of remedies for a large number of sufferers (and I have had IBS myself), most herbalists could come up with a prescription which was more effective for a specific individual after a consultation with them. This is just a combination with intellectual property rights imposed on it for some reason. [[User:Nineteenthly|Nineteenthly]] ([[User talk:Nineteenthly|talk]]) 12:58, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Misleading reference use

The reference used in this article refers to a study into its (Iberogasts) ability to reduce the severity of induced mucositis in rat intestine. The study clearly states at the end of the abstract that "it conferred no significant protection".[1] This product is often refered to as "clinically proven" in its own advertising. Does this study represent the evidence for such assertions? The reference is used here to support the statement that this product has been part of clinical studies. However, as the following statement in the article indicates that this product is effective, the use of this specific reference is misleading. —Preceding unsigned comment added by NBrereton (talkcontribs) 10:47, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
