It isn’t the most pleasant but I have to rely on it. Sometimes it will cause diarrhea more some days than others. It can take 3-6 hours to be where I am comfortable leaving a toilet. For me it is better than the alternative of others. I can’t tolerate the fiber supplements because I get bloated and in pain.
Coffee I like to have because it helps in the morning. I try to drink 70 ounces plus of water a day and try not to eat terribly unhealthy but try not to eat huge amounts of gaseous food at the same time. I don’t want to take out all the nutritious food. The side effects can be miserable. Hard to maintain muscle and body weight when you are in the battle with your body.

I used to try super high fiber and it didn’t work either.
Normally I eat oatmeal with a tablespoon of Chia seeds in the morning. I don’t think this hurts.
Now I see I have the Celiac Gene but I don’t have celiac disease.

I also supplement with fresh papaya when available to eat.
