Hi All,

I was wondering if taking fiber ALONE (with no food) causes the gastrocolic response. (The gc response is when, upon eating, the colon responds with contractions.) I know that eating is supposed to cause this, but what about just a SFS? Does the GI tract respond the same way?

* Anything - including just plain water - can trigger the gastrocolic reflex.
