The above, all good tips for sluggish bowel. After Covid, none of it works for me. I struggle mightily now to move my bowel at all without laxative, which I never used before Covid, not wanting to strip my bowel of good biome. I find it’s a whole new ballgame getting relief after Covid. I use laxatives, enemas, and suppositories, and still feel my bowel never completely evacuates. Also as suggested, I walk, eat well, drink plenty of water, and try, try, try, to keep things moving.
It’s just one more way Covid has wrecked me.
