The wheat germ should be treated as an insoluble fibre - be careful. It is likely causing the bloating and cramps. Constipation occurs when the colon is overstimulated and shuts down - usually due to too many triggers and not enough soluble fibre. Increase the soluble fibre in your diet. Are you on a fibre supplement? That may help to stabilize you, too.
