Does anyone else here have the Vitamix blender? It's an amazing blender with a motor like a car engine, lol. It retails for something like $500 but I got mine for $300. It's amazing, especially for people that suffer from digestive problems, need more fruit/veggie intake, and/or can't have dairy. I don't mean to endorse the blender lol but I'm just happy. It's given me recipes for making my own rice milk, almond milk, cashew milk, sunflower seed milk, and more. ...

I hope everyone is making good progress! My fissure is pretty much entirely healed these days. I have a skin tag formed by scar tissue according to my GP/family doctor. I've not seen blood on the tissue for a long time. I owe my successes entirely to Psyllium husk, to the tune of about 15g per day. I eat a diet rich in wholegrains and cereals, but this is never enough for a guaranteed healing schedule. As I previously reported to you guys, especially the US folk, Metamucil ...

My dr recommends 30 grams a day and tis is really hard. i find myself eating more just so thta I can get the requisite amount of fiber. This has caused some problems, minor but irritating nevertheless. So I am wondering if anyone has eve taken this fiber. There are 6 grams of fiber per tablespoon and it is supposed to be gentle on the tummy. http://www.helpforibs.com/shop/suplmts/acacia.asp Diet Tips / Supplements Thu, 24 Apr 2008 19:23:21 GMT http://analfissure.editboard.com/diet-tips-supplements-f3/acacia-fiber-t1231.htm#14147 http://analfissure.editboard.com/diet-tips-supplements-f3/acacia-fiber-t1231.htm http://analfissure.editboard.com/diet-tips-supplements-f3/evening-primrose-oil-t1400.htm Jen
I have read several posts where members talk about using this product. Can anyone tell me how it has helped you? Is it in a pill form?

I've just used some M.O.M yesterday night, and this morning had 2 extra soft BM's. Which is good because the last couple of days I've been having really hard BM's. I was thinking of using Miralax in the morning and M.O.M at night.

(there are so many recipes everywhere and that's high in fibre) -Fruit smoothies? mmm.

I was wondering because... If you take it in the morning or before eating, wouldn't it aid digestion more and break down the food that you are about to eat, before it goes in? If that makes sense? If you ever did happen to eat something hard e.g. a taco shell, isn't it better to take the stool softener before you eat? Or do you guys take it at ...
