Does anyone have a solution to this problem

If you are severely constipated (impacted stool, painful, blocked up, unable to pass a stool, glycerin supositories don't solve the problem, feel you need to go but can't) then you need to see your doctor. This can be a serious condition if you let it go on for too long. This happened to me (and is related to the drastic change in your diet and the lack of fibre in the new diet), but your doctor can sort it out.

If you are not at that stage, but are just not regular. Then, I found that a teaspoon of Benefibre in a glass of water, twice a day, has kept me regular as clockwork. Benefibre is colorless, has no taste, no odour and does not change the thickness of water...so it is just like drinking a glass of water. You can add Benefibre to any liquid that you are drinking and even the protein shakes. Good luck and I hope you sort this out.

It takes a couple days...I took one capful, or whatever the directions said. It's not something that you take once and it works right away, you need to take it for awhile. Once I realized I was getting little to no fiber on my post op diet I decided to keep taking it until I could increase my fiber intake.

The elderly are notorious for having constipation problems. I've worked in geriatrics for years and have done this many times with my patients. I've seen it work in as little as 30 minutes. The water is the key. It won't work without it. Diabetic candy is also a good idea!
