I'm going to try the low-carb way again! The reason why I had to stop several times, was a problem with constipation. I'm wondering how can I take 2 to 3 tblsp. a day of flax, without making everything taste horrible. I tried to take it dry,,,,,,and that was gross! Mixing it into a container of yogurt wasn't too bad,,,,but there are carbs in yogurt. Any good ideas out there? Thanks. Flax is good, but don't forget about almonds and walnuts. After induction, that is. Marsha/Ohio |

Or grind it and mix with protein powder for good warm porridge. Add Da Vinci and scoff. Or I make a pancake and waffle mix with soy, whey, vital wheat gluten, a FEW nuts, and ground flaxseed. Or take psyllium husks instead . -- Jane Lumley |

writes Since candy made from sugar alcohols acts as a laxative, it may be possible to use a small measured amount each day to prevent constipation. I have not had a constipation problem, so I am speculating on this. I tried this on a trip once, and I really don't recommend it; it still causes horrible gas and pain, and days of constipation followed by a big explosion. Find a natural method. -- Jane Lumley |

Find a natural method. If you ask me, using SA candy is a means to keep regular is really poor advice. For one thing, many people have no idea how the products will affect BG levels. Also, they have no idea how much it takes to cause problems. Even more, then have no control over how long the gas and pain will last. I could go on, too. Really poor advice, IMO. |

Any good ideas out there? Most of the good plans list plentifull veggies as mandatory. Eat the required amount of veggies and you won't remain constipated. Did you avoid veggies while you were previously low carbing? |
