Prolapsed rectum: living with it versus surgery

I posted the original question and I am having difficulty determine who you are asking a question too. But I do not have fecal leakage except under certain conditions and it is a very small amount. I have no issues with constipation or diarrhea. I eat a plant based, whole food diet.

Why would you want to stop taking magnesium citrate? Most of the population is deficient in key nutrients, magnesium being one. If the citrate form causes loose stools try switching to magnesium glycinate.

I got the impression from your post that you did have a leakage problem. I have only taken magnesium citrate for the past 6 months and would like to stop taking it because I generally try to take only those supplements and medications that are determined to be medically necessary by my MD or by his medical dietician. I also eat a whole food diet and am trying to increase the fiber content with as much as possible derived from food.
