    Thanks guys for all of the feedback. It sounds like, from what most of you are saying, is that I should increase my fiber intake and drink A LOT more water. Aside from that, eating better, which includes more fruits & veggies will help regulate ;)

    My suggestion, which you can take or leave, is to switch from cow's milk to something like almond milk. Also, try to eat less processed food, in favor of fresh food closer to it's original state. Wishing you the best for figuring out what works for you :)

    Thanks! I caught a sale last week and stocked up on Almond Breeze! It's actually pretty good :D

    Lemon Water.

    Ginger, Apple Cider Vinegar and Lemon. Drink as tea or at room temp

    Why?

    Reason for lemon water is that lemons have enzymes that help stimulate liver functions and excrete waste out of your body. Ginger aides in stimulating digestion, circulation and sweating (helps cleanse out toxins from colon, liver and other organs). Apple Cider Vinegar for bloat

    Could you list the names of these toxins?

    Ahhh, I keep hoping one day someone will name those toxins. but no one ever does. Sigh.

    Or if they do it's "Sugar! And Gluten!" or things like that.

    Go see a doctor. A GOOD one. I fell into the whole "eat more fiber" trap, until I finally found an educated doctor who tested me for SIBO, colonic inertia (IBS-C), and Gastroparesis. Fiber needs to be avoided at all costs with these conditions or constipation will worsen and transit time will slow even further. I suggest you get yourself tested. There are antibiotics/meds and dietary approaches for these conditions. Good luck!

    I'm in a frustrating situation like this right now, sadly there are not many specialized gastroenterologists in town. I had a C-scope and I've been suffering with strange bowel issues for over a year (after having a perfect bowel since childhood) and my gastro just keeps telling me to eat more fiber. Maybe I'll need to track down a specialist out of town!

    If you think you may have gastroparesis ask for a gastric emptying study (4hr solid food one). This test will tell you if you have it or not. It's not bad but long and boring lol

    do a salt water flush or drink some dieter's tea.

    Nope.
    Laxatives can be dangerous.
