Hi Sally,
I'm glad that you finally found someone to give you some help and hope. I'm interested in your recipe for oat bran, applesauce and prune juice. I've seen this recipe before but was afraid to try it because of the fiber in the oat bran. My doctor(s) have told me to keep fiber to a minimum because of the redundant colon. But I'm willing to give anything a try at this point. Can you tell me the ratio of the ingredients please . Thanks, and good luck with the new PT/
Let us know how you are doing, as it is people like you who I learn from....
not the doctors.

I am same but also going to give a try, but maybe at a slower pace.
1 cup applesauce, 1 cup oat bran, 1/4 cup prune juice. Spices as desired. Cinnamon, nutmeg, etc. May be stored in frig or freezer (ice cube trays). Begin with two TBSB each evening followed by 6-8 ounces of water or juice. After 7-10 days increase to 3 TBSP. and then at end of second to third week increase to 4. You may have bloating and gas at beginning but should go away after few weeks. Should see improvement in bowel habits in two weeks. With us, though, who knows!!! As always, proceed with caution. I’ll probably start with one.
Thanks for your good thoughts in my journey!
