constipation WITH carbs??
 

It seems like all we hear is how carbs help cure constipation, well anymore (for a few years actually), when I eat many carbs, I get constipation and hemorroids and pain when I do go (sorry).
So should I not eat ANY carbs other than vegetables? I admit I don't drink as much fluids as I should and that probably aggravates things as well. Suggestions?

You need to eat your carbs in the form of salad veggies.
Drink lots of water and if that doesn't help then add 1 tbsp. of BeneFiber to your diet twice a day.

I had the same problem!! :D

I have found that it is the MAGNESIUM that makes me VERY regular. I love it. I didn't realize it was the mag until i read somewhere else that it can cause diahrrhea. I take Magnesium Citrate, it also helps with muscle pains i get from fibromyalgia. I had used the psillium husks etc, but for the last 5 months, with the magnesium, i don't need anything. IT's great. I take 2 magnesium oxide / day one in am and one in pm. THey are 200 mg each. Good luck. THis seems to work no matter what my carb level or water intake. :roll:
