Extreme Constipation From Soluble Fiber


Recommended Posts

I've been having loose stools for almost 2 months now and finally figured out that if I take a soluble fiber like Konsyl, it stops it immediately.

But the problem is that I'm only taking 1/4 of a tsp and getting seriously constipated from this. The instructions recommend taking the whole pkg ... I figured out the hard way a little goes a loong way with me ...

I was thinking it might have something to do with the chronic dehydration we have. I drink plenty of salt water so I'm good on hydrating.

Where do you think all that water is going if not into my colon ? Or is that bowels ? Intestine maybe ? :) ... Lack of water in my intestines is the only reason I can think of for an extreme reaction like this ...

Anyone familiar with this ? thanks ...
