margoriem, I am not convinced that diet and massage/body manipulation aren't the answers for my IBS-C and severely redundant colon. I hope you can figure it all out. Attached is what works for me, but I am always trying new things.
One thing is for sure, a redundant colons needs a lot of H2O. Chia seeds, soaked in boiling water and added to my hot cereal prevents constipation. I am guessing moderate fiber is what I do--and it is with real food, not processed food. Adding abdominal massage in the a.m. upon rising, going from sitting (kinks the colon which doesn't help) to standing and moving around helps too.
Yes, it is confusing to try and figure out, but I really believe I can come up with good solutions for myself.
