Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?

KKlas4 - I have a "severely" redundant colon. Have you tried Slippery Elm Powder (inner bark)? I have some with every meal. It adds a lot of slip. I tried taking it once a day and that was not the solution.

I also eat a liquidity diet - my three meals are - hot cereal, smoothie, well-cooked soup. I feather in solids. I drink something all day; more water/liquid to push things along.

I also have myriad food intolerances that trigger IBS. And a rectal pocket (prolapse).

Doing the above for my meals and beverages, plus only eating what works for me keeps my bowels in the normal range. The prolapse comes to fore if I eat wrong, but I have a sitting style that helps take up the prolapse slack and that works.

Everyone is so different, but for me, if I didn't do all of the above, I would be maddenly uncomfortable or in pain.
