I had two bad days with constipation and decided it was not something I wanted to deal with. Who wants to trade being fat for horrible hemorrhoids? So I stocked up on the Miralax and accepted it as being at least an every other day thing. Then I spoke with a friend from college I'd not talked to for a year. She had gastric bypass and suggested I start taking MegaRed.
I'm not suggesting anyone take this stuff w/out checking with their doctor. And if you have allergies, know that it's a fish oil. But this stuff has worked great for me and I believe in the power of Omega 3 so it's a win-win.
It's Omega 3 Krill oil in small pills that are easy to swallow. I take one a day. It's been 2 weeks Miralax free. It's not that I minded the miralax, but I think this is a more beneficial mix for me so just thought I'd put this out there for those who have the chronic problem. Might be a fix for someone else too.
