Thank you so much for sharing this, Celia. I can't help but wonder this: If the pockets impede passage of waste, it would seem to make sense that there would be bacterial overgrowth and resultant inflammation.

Idk. I’ve never considered that. Mine have never been problematic that I’m aware of. I only know I have it, due to it being discovered during my colonoscopy in 2020. I asked all my doctors about it and they all said the same thing. So, I haven’t been avoiding seeds, nuts, popcorn, etc. I’m heavy on garden salads lately and my digestion is really good. Not even taking Miralax now. Hope it continues.

Have you noticed any problem with it?
