Hi Cyndy, Where did you find that info? I've never noticed strawberries or any of the other berries to constipate me. If anything, they helped make me go a bit better, particularly blackberries which have the most seeds. I also didn't find much difference when I switched from bananas to pears.However, lately I have found that drinking hot chamomile tea during the morning seems to be noticably helping.Usually two to three 10 to 12 oz.cups get me going. Yesterday I had to dash straight to the bathroom after my second class. I got the idea from Astrochick, she said that drinking lots of hot fluids was one of the keys to her stability. Since I hadn't been doing that, I thought hmm...there's something to try. Also, I think Linz mentioned that chamomile can help with GERD, and I've noticed that I'm burping a lot less since I've been drinking it. To tell you the truth, I think it works better than the(expensive!)Prevacid. Well, if you haven't been drinking lots of hot fluids,try it. It might just do the trick. Hang in there! -Bob
