How do you deal with constipation?

Hi Katgob,
I love shredded wheat also. I'm 78 and have eaten it since I was a child. It is great for good bowel movements but also just very healthy for you! Most people eat it with milk and sugar but I prefer it by spreading butter on the biscuit and putting it under the broiler for a couple minutes to melt the butter. It's so good!
The water and broccoli are great also!

Love that idea. I eat my cereal with no milk or anything. At a very young age i was turned off by the mushy consistency of milk and cereal. I know it is what kept me regular. Funny how i have had friends with bowel problems who do not look at what they eat that could possibly help with their issue.
I cannot stomach any of the powders in drinks either. In the hospital for my bone marrow transplant i was encouraged to drink a "clear" ensure. The doctor said it has a nice taste. Disgusting. I threw it in the trash. I figured then I would ask for alternatives.
With everything, we find what works for us and our body.
