With all the cheese, being bunged up is a natural thing. I have found a wonderful product at my local super market called "SMOOTHE MOVE" (No Really!) LOL It is a very pleasant senna based tea and it is delightful tasting and gently effective, usually within 12 to 18 hours. Moves things along very nicely. I only use it when I need it and it usually just takes a single cup and it's no nonger a proble.
