Does anyone have chronic constipation?

I don't know if peanut butter is a constipating food from direct experience. Healthline says for most, no, but if you are intolerant of it, yes, it could cause constipation. As far as IBS goes, Monash says it is not a trigger in a 2 Tablespoon serving size.

I would suggest foregoing peanut butter for a week and see what happens. If you see improvement, also consider the food item you put the peanut butter on.

I asked because I regularly eat a lot of peanut butter and usually have it with fruits like apples,banana's oatmeal,wheat bread etc.But even before I started having chronic constipation i still ate peanut butter like I normally do and never had any digestive issues.So maybe it's not a direct cause ,i'm currently foregoing peanut butter like you suggeste so i'll see how it goes.
