This is kinda embarassing:(
Since I have been doing Atkins I have had a problem with constipation:(
I have tried fennel seeds but don't really like them,,,,,can canyone give me some suggestions PLEASE!!!! :help: Angel I hope I am not alone with this problem :( |
Lots of talk about it in several threads here: http://forum.lowcarber.org/search.php?searchid=723504 When I feel I need some help, I drink Dieters Tea that I get at the Dollar Store. Good luck. :)

Carbsense Apple cinnamon granola - 25 grams fibre per serving. :)
|
Are you drinking enough as sometimes it's a lack of fluid rather than a lack of fibre?
|
Hi there and thanks for all your help :)
Galatia I am in canada and I have never heard of dieters tea?? Steph z Where can I get those granola bars?? Is carsense the brand name of them ?? BigTed I do drink lots of water more than 4 litres in a day sometimes :) but thanks for the tip :) Angel |
It is a cereal and not a bar. You can do a google search for "carbsense granola" to see who sells it.
|
A couple of coffee when I get up, and a large glas of warm water does it perfect for me...
|
I make a protein shake with psyllium seed in it. Works Great!
|
thanks for the info I will try each of them :)

Veggies....lots of green veggies!!
|
I just purchased "Whole Psyllium Husk" with no added sugars or anything. One heaping teaspoon has 4 grams fiber. I just mix it in with a big glass of water and gulp it down.
|
flax--i buy flaxseed and grind it then sprinkle 1tbsp on my evening salad and never have a problem --been doing this a couple of years now, works great. |
A lot of people assume constipation comes only from a lack of fiber. However, constipation can also be a sign of magnesium deficiency.
|
When I take my cal/mag supplements I don't have any problem at all. I buy Jamieson brand and it's a combo of calcium and magnesium. I used to take 3 a day (breakfast, late afternoon, bedtime) but I found it worked TOO well :o Two per day is perfect for me :)
The veggies, water and also exercise can't hurt :D |
WELL THANKS AGAIN FOR THE GREAT TIPS i LIKE THE FACT THAT i CAN TAKE A PILL FOR IT i DON'T THINK i WOULD LIKE TO DRINK THAT DRINK HEELS WAS TALKING ABOUT :) THANKS GUYS
