MikeJ,
Hey, I completely relate to the constipation issue. Some things that
have helped me; Taking large doses of vitamin C, eating lots of white
rice, avoiding or, severely limiting fruits and veggies. You might like
to read the book “IBS-FREE AT LAST” by Patsy Catsos, MS, RD, LD This
book helped me figure out my threshold for fruits and veggies. I
eat (maybe) one serving of fruit per day and, one veggie.
Too, supplementing with magnesium can help. But, it tends to make
me feel draggy. Less water, more sugars, white rice, walking and,
a hot cup of coffee in the morning, these all help me. I hope you
find something useful here. I have lived my life with constipation.
It is still something I have to think about daily.
I should add tea. Tea constipates me.
