In February I posted that the bran based cereal that I had been using for years to keep me regular was no longer working. And in fact was causing violent episodes of diarrhea, with painful spasms. After following the emergency diet here for about a week along with alot of peppermint tea and Immodium, the violent episodes quieted down. Because of my fear of it returning, I have remained on a very limited menu and only yesterday tried 1/2 boiled skinless chicken breast with no problem to the few items. Also I started on the acacia powder 3 days ago..1/2 tsp. twice a day. I am having bm's that are not diarrhea but not solid either, soft leaving me feeling like I am not done. This happens twice a day. I would like to try IF and want to know what is the safest one to start out with? I need to have a more solid stool and this will not happen w/o IF.
I am taking Gas-X to cope with the gas and bloating and it does help.
Any suggestions would be appreciated..thanks...
