Say less. Say less.

I made fun of that moron once. The number of responses I got from their mindless followers was amusing.

How poor does your diet need to be to cause bowel movement problems, obvious medical conditions aside?

I would imagine mdonalds is bad enough to do it.

Only if that's all you eat. If it's just occasionally and you otherwise eat some fiber occasionally, you'll be fine.

Sounds like they accepted a deal with Big Pharma.

I've had a bowel obstruction. It's not fun. Worst pain in my life.

This is the part when I'm supposed to say I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I would though.

I like hearing about the suffering of useless idiots.

Couldn't have happened to a worse POS

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 months ago

Idk, I can think of a few.

I used to have a pretty good habit of drinking green smoothies at least twice a week. Best bowel movements I ever had in my life, by far.

[-] Acters@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

And what stopped you from a good habit that had the best bowel movements?

[-] AnimalsDream@slrpnk.net 7 points 5 months ago

Good old fashioned

[-] TriPolarBearz@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I'm in the hospital with a bowel blockage.

I've always had a pretty shitty stomach (haha), but it really drove home just a couple weeks back. I'm not bad at getting fiber, but I don't go out of my way to chase it. I recently started Kratom at nighttimes for anxiety and RLS, and have been enjoying it. Kratom solidifies bowel matter and causes constipation.

I took it for a few months (8 grams a day; 4 in the morning 4 in the evening) and I didn't really bother to make sure I had fiber, water, and maybe a small bit of laxative with my dosage. As of a couple weeks ago, I no longer have an appendix.

So. Fiber good. Much fiber. I eat shredded wheat every morning now and try to take in some leafy greens with my suppers/lunches as well as trying to limit my overall dairy intake. There's also diverticulitis on my dad's side and diabetes on my mom's. I'm 35. It's time to be extremely careful with my diet and now I only take sugar in the mornings with my coffee/tea and it's half of what I used to put in it.

Stay healthy out there, folks.
