    I've had this problem my whole life until now! I would even try to take the fiber powders that you would put in the juices, but all they did was bloat me. I was told by a salesperson at a health food store to start taking shots of aloe vera gel before meals, flax seed oil in the morning and acidophillus. It worked! I did that for awhile and it helped tremendously. I became very regular. I only take the acidophillus now. I started taking Kyo Green and Chorophyll, which I think play a big part in keeping me regular also. I know it's a lot of stuff to take, but if it works I would think about trying it.

    Sure: probiotics, fiber, water, is good. Those active cultures in Yogurts or acidophilus can be got straight in a capsule form. All good stuff for your innerds.

    Now let me say that some people are not right on this, it is totally in the normal range once a week. Don't fret. It's not as big a whoop as people make it out to be. Unless you are having issues. Like you say, low volume in, and it does take longer to bulk up and go through.

    Here's what works for me if I feel like I am backed up: prunes, chocolate and coffee all in the same meal (lol! Yes, if I'm getting desperate!) a big batch of spaghetti (quick food in, quick food out I guess is why that works for me). And lately I tried steel cut oats for the first time and talk about a big bunch of fiber! Right back out the first few times! I also noticed right away that if i'm eating low cal and low portions for a few weeks and then have a big meal, like a slacker day meal out, and bam! Out it all comes! I actually lose weight that next morning! Lots of hot sauce, or lots of hot peppers will sometimes hurry things up as well for me.

    Don't let people scare you. You don't need cleanses to be healthy.

    It's weird, but I had the same problem until I read a comment on here about coffee. Now every morning I wake up have a 8oz glass of coffee and about 1 hour later I have to go.

    Not sure if that's normal but it works for me.

    Coffee + oatmeal is a sure winner! Stimulant and fiber together!

    I noticed a supplement was... ahem... helping me in that department (but I don't need help, really) so I recommended it to a friend who always has issues like yours. She happily reported that it works great! Might not work for everyone as it is a side effect.

    It's Alpha lipoic acid. Works even in the 100 mg version. Great for skin!

    My entire adult life I have been "regular." My version of "regular" is going to be MUCHO different than your version of "regular," i'm sure. I only have a BM (bowel Movement) every 5-7 days. This has been "regular" for me for so long now... I'm not at all constipated, I just don't have to go. Then BAM, I will have a day of cleaning out.

    Since "dieting" I have had a hard time dealing with this, I have tried eating more fiber and NOTHING, just makes me REALLY gassy. I have tried taking a (small) dose of laxative before bed and NOTHING. It's really hard to think of an entire 6" subway sub, lunches and 6 dinners and breakfasts and snacks just sitting in there doing nothing! :sad:

    Any advice or different products I should try? Please only send advice that you know has worked for you :wink:

    Thanks guys, your great!

    I have same issue--- I take Acidophilis, eat 2 prunes every morning, and drink a LOT of water....I have been going much more regularly.

    You need fats to keep things moving, you may not be eating enough of the good fats to help you in that area. it's not just fiber and water, fat is an essential part of waste removal.

    More water?

    I don't know. I'm clockwork. My husband thinks it's so weird. His norm is like every few days or something ridiculous. He never eats vegetables though. haha

    Flax Seed. This works for me, and I was reading a post a few days ago about how it has helps other people too.

    When I went to the Canary Islands last October I did not go for a week! I went to the Doctors when I got home and he said that was probably due to the change of food and water. He told me the answer to constipation was to drink lots of water and a daily spoonful of Lactulose when required.
