Dearest HaleyM

• Do you take vitamins? Iron and calcium constipate. You can buy iron free daily vitamins for 4 bucks on sale, at Safeway.
• Do you take magnesium supplement? It's a vitamin and all natural. It has a laxative effect. 2 capsules before bedtime guarantees gentle relief
• I didn't see much fruit in your diet. Bananas help me "go" and they contain soluble fiber. Also pears, but they're more risky. If I eat 2 before bed time, I will get "lucky" in the morning.
• "Plumsmart" plum juice helps. It's not tough like prune juice, it's more gentle. You can find it at Safeway.

I strongly recommend magnesium. I was severely constipated for 6 months until my friend suggested magnesium. For the 1st time I woke up and had a gentle relief. I was in 3rd heaven!

Be well.
Tatyana.


P.S. Some foods effect me 2 or 3 days after I eat. So, just because you didn't get sick after meal, doesn't mean that you won't feel it later.
