Re: Laxative Dependency, among other things       01/19/05 01:28 PM Edit Reply Quote LauraSue Reged: 01/14/04 Posts: 4812 Loc: New York City Welcome to the board!! What a pretty picture of you! The soluble fiber supplements like Metamucil and Citrucel are NOT true laxatives even though they are sold that way. That's why they work for both IBS-C and D. They're more like a food than a medicine and are perfectly safe for long-term use. Heather does a good job of explaining it. I'll go find the link. Here it is: Soluble Fiber Supplements (NOT Laxatives) Hope this helps! -------------------- Laura Keep it simple! Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
