I don't measure..I fill up the coffee pot and fill up the filter until its almost overflowing, so is that like 10cups a day? I just thought maybe I should switch my bc time becaue in the morning when I wake up is when I drink tons of fennel,take fibercon and such..and I thought if my pill was bothering my ibs at all,taking it before bed and sleeping all night would somehow make a difference cuz I thought your ibs like shuts off when your sleeping or something.
I'm hoping u will read this and maybe answere this.
"When taken, slippery elm is easy on the digestive system. Slippery elm is said to be good for both diarrhea and constipation, as it softens and adds smooth bulk to the stool. Slippery elm also calms irritation as it gently coats the lining of the intestinal system."
Why is it said slippery elm is good for both diarreah and constipation if it softens the stool? WOuldn't that be a problem for d's? What about d that isn't actual diarrea but you go alot everyday and lots of incomplete evacuation? It talks about coating the digestive system,I think my system is well coated with tons of mucus already! sometimes when I release gas or go to the bathroom a glob of mucus comes out!! Will things get more slippery?!
