Most common questions I get ...
1) "Doc, what BLOOD KETONE METER do you recommend?"
ANSWER: FORACARE: bit.ly/2QKGmKG (Promo-code: Dr.Boz)
It's accurate and takes only ONE test-strip to get results. YES!!
2) "Doc, what can I have while fasting?"
Salt + water are best.
Pocket Salt: bit.ly/31ypeen (Promo code: DrBoz)
Salt Sucking Rocks: bit.ly/3bkpZMl (Promo code: DrBoz)
Sounds weird but it's strangely satisfying.
Black coffee - I prefer cold brew coffee.
Fasting tea. My favorite = Pique Tea Instant Crystals:
Bergamot Black Tea: bit.ly/2T5Ej3d
Pique Teas have great flavor and the highest antioxidants possible. They
freeze dry their tea into crystals. Pique Tea acts like instant tea ... with
GREAT TASTE. Not bitter. Not moldy.
Ketones-In-A-Can is also a nice option during a fast. If you have to have
something, use ketones to strengthen your metabolism during your fast.
Bone broth bit.ly/3asMa1G
3) "Doc, how do you know if you're eating the right fat?"
Measure it. Your Red Blood Cells keep track of the fat you eat. The "skin"
of your red blood cells show the answer. Order the test and do it at
home. Mail it in for your results. No doctor's order needed.

I solved my IBS by Keto and IF. I was a childhood sufferer of high stress because of an emotionally abusive parent. I always had stomach aches as a child. This was never addressed by my mother. My gut bacteria is so much better now....I have lost weight and am working out without aches and pains and even have girly guns ( my arms are getting leanly muscular!)
I am 4.5 months into Keto and IF and am so grateful to you and Dr. Fung and others for all the wonderful life changing assistance in becoming healthier! ❤️❤️❤️ all the best to you!
I’m not doing as well on keto where nerves are better and I get constipation on keto pretty bad.
Hi Doc! Always look forward to new vids, BUT, on a lot of your videos the volume is really really low, and you are a soft talker naturally, and this phone I do 99% of my internet on has a tiny speaker. Not complaining, but is there any way you can turn up the microphone sensitivity or whatever you are using to record or to process the videos? Usually though when you are chatting with the Type 1 lady (I think , forgot her name), the volume is great but on these videos I can barely hear ya even at max volume.

Thank you Dr. Boz for being so very generous with your time & knowledge ‼️♥️
Thank you! I'm new to constipation, but now in hospital for diverticuloscious (sp?). It's a relief to hear this for when I get out of here and back to keto.
4:50 - chia seeds . 1 T dry chia seed pr hour for a few days til stool seems normal . then back down to 1 T per 3-4 hrs.
And how much water? A cup? Or more?
@@angelstar22 cup will do. you need to rise each of the seeds
Lots of great ideas here. Thank you
I greatly appreciate this segment. Thank you.
MzJenny - it is a weird thing to talk about .. but every patient has this question.
Thank you Doc. I love learning from you and appreciate your generosity.
Your skin looks amazing doc! Thank you for your time and sharing your knowledge with us.
FYI Dr. Boz. Be careful recommending Chia Seeds. I found this story about needing to go to the ER!
"In a study presented at the American College of Gastroenterology Annual Scientific Meeting, a 39 year-old man ended up in the emergency room after eating a tablespoon of dry chia seeds, then drinking a glass of water. Shortly after taking this, he noticed he was not able to swallow anything, even his own saliva. In the emergency room, doctors performed an endoscopy to see what, if anything, was causing the issue. They found a mass of congealed chia seeds completely obstructing the man's esophagus."
Also, in another comment, I just started reading your book!😀
Groundbreaking information - as always.
I am 10 days on keto and went from constipation to diarrhea overnight on a day 10.
I did too in the beginning then experienced constipation, go figure.
Very well educated 👌 & very good at explaining! Thank you!
Hi Dr. Boz! Your skin looks great! What have you changed lately or what do attribute to great skin?
My step son has nf1. This disease has many side effects, but encopresis constipation has been the worst. I'm extremely analytical. I started keeping track of his diet after I realized that he wasn't drinking anywhere near the same amount of water as our other kids the same age. They would come and ask me to fill their cups with filtered water and I realized he would go an entire day and never touch his cup of water. After that I put his water in a large water bottle and marked lines between the measurements. I would set a timer on my phone and make him drink too the next line at every timer. We've done this for years. We changed his diet by adding fiber. We upped his fruits and veggies drastically and added in things like flax to spaghetti sauces or soup. We did get him pooping once a day with no more poop seepage for a about a week. We ended up having to use miralax for about a year. He's off of that now, but we notice that he's still not regular and not having full poops according to the Bristol poop chart. Last summer I started taking the kids on a nature trail 5 days a week every morning. The full length of the trail was about 10,000 steps. We would practice things they needed to memorize or learn on the trail, read the trail signs about the animals, and I had them doing arm exercises with 1 and 2lb weights for part of the trail... we all worked out. When we got to the half way point there were picnic tables and a shelter so we would skip, frog jump, jumping jacks, and some other simple workouts. He pooped every single day. We didn't even keep up on his water perfectly like we usually do and we didn't add any fiber into his diet. Activity seems to be a big help to constipation. However, on keto, doing all of this activity plus a 30 minute hiit 5 days a week...I still felt constipated.
Thanks for the advice doc. I get constipation on Keto. I thought chia seeds would break a fast but I’ll try it. One small spoon of it contains 60 calories but again I’ll try it. I also do OMAD so I don’t want to break my fast.
Try psyllium husk ;)
Much less calories and even better at regulating transit than chia.
@@tristanmalou1854 I just posted a question about using psyllium instead of chia. Do you find that it does not impact insulin and blood sugar?
@@Snapkrackpopchia seeds won’t raise insulin also it’s full of fiber and omega 3
Thank you for the wonderful video? Iraqi in Germany
I would test for IBS antibodies (IBSSmart), pancreatic insuficiency, Bile Acid Malabsorption 2 tests (mayo clinic). There is of course spinal issues like tethered cord which can cause constipation. People with EDS or spina bifida are more likely to have it and it does not always show on imaging, but there are others symptoms like constipation, pain when crossing legs etc. lower back pain.
Great info! Thanks. 👍😊🎉🎉🎉
I just bought some chia seeds, thanks for the confirmation.
ya, my mom had us on about 8 cups a day of vegies and some fruits. Never, ever had constipation til I was not only keto, but fasted 72 hours. I'm 67 and scared to do another prolonged fast now.
Just stir chia seeds into yogurt and then leave 15 mins, then eat and drink a glass of water, or if on fast follow what this doc says but I would try a teaspoon at A time.
2 teaspoons of MCT oil and plenty of water. It will empty you in 1 to 2 hours max. Have access to a loo.
I did that before work and lived in the bathroom for a few hours. Disaster pants. Definitely works
Lol!!! I definitely will try it. And I'll be sure that I camp out at my loo!!! 🤣 Thanks for the info Amp Head and Kid Avocado!!! 👍👍😻
Ian I will try the mct oil. I have been wondering if I should totally fast till this works. ?? I am into the third hour and nothing. Any advice will help Maybe take some magnesium along with the chia? Bonny
Shouldn’t the chia seeds be soaked before consumption for safety?
this is spot on, thanks for explaining
Dr. Boz...I know this is off topic but...please help me out with this I can't seem to get any answers from people I talk to...Quick background...I am a 6' 3" 58-year-old male...Struggled with gut pain from age 16...at age 45 discovered I had Celiac sprue...Celiac took me from 191 pounds of solid steel to 160 pounds of whimpy teenage boy...took a couple years to master gluten free...now 100% gluten, grain free and still only 169-171 pounds ...always low carbs NEVER eat any junk...started keto October 2018...somehow I transitioned into carnivore...I feel pretty darn good with one HUGE problem...muscle cramps... all the time in my hand's, feet, calves, and ribcage...I take Epsom salt baths twice a week...I was told to up my Potassium and magnesium intake, so I have been taking a minimum of 500 mg Potassium and about 1000mg magnesium each day...and I put pink sea salt in my water every day and I drink a minimum of 1 gallon of water a day no other beverages except my keto coffee in the morning...How do I stop the muscle cramps? I can't work out because of them and I wake up each night and every morning screaming from the intense cramps ...What can I do??...HELP!!
I was dealing with the same cramping issues with just the mag. and pot., adding calcium citrate did the trick for me. I only do the calcium citrate part for about a week, then stop and I always take vitamin K2 with it. Then I just take it if the cramps start again. Sometimes I can go a long time without it, maybe because I eat a lot of dairy. I learned the combination of those three from a video by Dr. Berg. He has helped me learn so much about what foods can help different issues.
@@samsonkitty99 Thank you!!
Wolf Daddy Leyton Jay Cougar has the same problem got worse with Keto. Started taking calcium, magnesium, vitamin B complex, and a scoop of ultima electrolytes in 16 ounces of water 4 to 6 times a day. Problem gone. If I go more than a a few days without this regiment they return. Also take extra B-1.
Fabulous thank you for clear solutions
Great information.
I ordered some chia just now. Here's hoping.
MCT oil greases the skids pretty goof for those bound up ones.
I did an egg diet ( 6 eggs, 4 tbl spoons of butter , 2 tbl spoons coconut oil , & 2 oz of cheese) and I literally had water diarrhea but i did not feel like diarrhea it wasa different type of pain😐
For me constipation is supposedly caused by low bile in my stomach because of the stones in my gallbladder.
5 months on the diet. I only lost 6lbs. I got keto itch and diarrhea and constipation. Didn't feel better. Didn't have more energy. Didn't have less brain fog. The only thing that was better was waking up earlier and my sleep cycles, but not until about 2 or 3 months in.
Yeah I don’t feel as great as others do on keto either. I too experience constipation .
Thank you so much! I’m in need of this information right now! I’ll start munching on my chia seeds😉
I tried Chia seeds a couple of years ago. I had a really horrible experience with them and ended up in the ER with horrible stomach pain. The only way I can even begin to use them is soaking them over night so they are fully expanded. I just avoid them now, don't want to go through that again.
Thank you so much I’m gonna try this.
Getting enough salt, magnesium and water on keto will help prevent constipation. The correct sodium/ water ratio of electrolytic drinks is very useful.
Yeah magnesium chloride usually moves me but not since keto
@@sixpackbinky I forgot to mention potassium citrate to
When I first started KETO the second week I had some experience with Constipation and after about 15 minutes I resorted to talking to my bowel ... "You have 5 minutes (I said it out loud) or I'm gonna get a spoon" ... I don't know if it was the speech or not but I haven't had the problem since. ;^)
Now to be serious, I did add fermented foods to the diet and it did seem to rectify the problem.
Can you give an example of which kinds of foods and where you find them?
never had a problem with constipation. only had diarrhea from extended fasting
Been on keto & fasting for 8 months lost 120lb.
Something weird that I have noticed. Every now and then I will pig out on something like chicken wings or pulled pork. Little to no carbohydrates, and I mean really pig out like 5 lb of food in a day and a half.
I gain the food weight initially but it goes away in like a day or two but the food never come out the other end. It disappears into my system or something it's so weird.
wow! that's awesome! I'm 60 at 6 months. How did you get to lose so much more? What were your total carbs and macros?
@@reginapontes5672
Congratulations on the 60 lb. Feels great doesn't it?
I honestly don't keep track of a lot of stuff. I have a property inspection company so I'm up and down stairs all day.
I think one thing that really helped was I read a book called The Microbiome Diet. I really focused on getting rid of anything that was causing me inflammation and rebuilding my healthy gut bacteria just by eating prebiotics.
I eat low carb salad four or five times a week for dinner and just throw all of those prebiotics in there. Aside from that I pretty much just live off of meat and I'm very happy.
@@reginapontes5672
I kind of have the mindset where I throw my good bacteria a party once or twice a week and get them all fired up and then I just cut them off and just leave them no choice but to consume my body fat.
mike c - I can answer that! LOL. I just learned about this recently from another fabulous internet doc. When you eat real food, it’s nutrient dense. Your body can and does fully digest this type of food and uses all the available nutrients so there is little to no waste. That is what poop is ... waste. So, if you eat five lbs of something good for you, your body throws a party and uses it all up. Yay for real food!
Headed to store NOW of chia seeds. I have CIC and was put on a med (Amitiza) to help.
Cool let us know how it goes
Be careful. Fyi I found this. "In a study presented at the American College of Gastroenterology Annual Scientific Meeting, a 39 year-old man ended up in the emergency room after eating a tablespoon of dry chia seeds, then drinking a glass of water. Shortly after taking this, he noticed he was not able to swallow anything, even his own saliva. In the emergency room, doctors performed an endoscopy to see what, if anything, was causing the issue.

@@reginapontes5672 I will put them in my protein shakes and let them expand. Giggle, I tried a teaspoon of dry chewed them and lets jus say braces and Chia seeds dnt go well together......dental picks anyone..😝
@@moxiemckeldrey5486 not fun!
@@moxiemckeldrey5486 lol 🤣 chia seeds and partial dentures don't go together either!!! 🤣
Great video thank u!
Just wondering if this will still work if constipation has been a lifelong issue? I’m also on 98% carnivore diet.
gracias gracias gracias
I don't eat cheese (especially yellow cheese) anymore.
They lead to such hard stools that I was gonna cry. It was really painful.
Stay away from cheese.
yes but if you give you cheese you get depressed so its a balancing act haha
a dash of powdered magnesium citrate in my BP coffee will loosen you up.lol
How much and how often should I ingest Chia seeds? I've been on keto for 1- 1/2 yrs and lost 80 lbs. I get occasional constipation and have to "push". At suggestion of doctor who treated me for diverticulitis, I eat a 1/2 cup of bran cereal (Fiber One) each morning with just enough whole milk to make it wet. I also sprinkle a teaspoon of Myralax on it. It would be nice to forego the cereal which has carbs and the Myralax.
Chia and swelling concerns me because of past diverticulitis episodes. How fast does it work? I'd like to experiment with small amounts because I don't want any surprises. I drive a school bus and there is no way I can stop at a local gas station, etc, plus there are no "facilities" on the bus. It would be a major embarrassment to have an accident. I'm 74 yr old and reasonably healthy. Loosing the 80 lbs has greatly improved my life. I'm not skinny and at 250, I hope to shed another 25+ lbs.
Start @4:50 minutes in
You mentioned NET carbs and Total Carbs, I was always on the understanding that Fibre didn’t effect Ketosis,
Fiber is a carbohydrate that your body can't digest, so it doesn't count toward the amount of carbs that can trigger an insulin response, which too much of can prevent your body from going into that ketosis state
I’m also I’m the UK so I count my Carbs differently.
Soluble fiber does not cause insulin level to go up where as Insoluble fiber does..
Bile, the right amount in your stomach helps, lubricates the stool and helps it slide along.
I have Crohn's disease and no gall bladder...major calming of intestines since eating Keto and off all meds. However when I do 24-48 hour fast and begin eating again I have diarrhea about 30 minutes after first meal and diarrhea will continue for 3-4 hours. It's frustrating because I don't make it to the bathroom in time and am stuck for hours hanging out by the bathroom (literally!) until my bowels finally calm down. I always come off of fast with a small amount of food then work into my first meal but still doesn't help. Any suggestions? I don't want to give up my weekly fasting but I want to be able to leave the house after fast its over!! Thank you, Cindy
cindy gonzales, I am not an expert by any means but I’ve heard of people having the same trouble you are describing. One of the solutions they have found that helps them is to break their fast with a caloric drink like almond milk with heavy cream or something on that order and then wait 30 minutes before eating a small meal/snack. Then after another 30-45 minutes, they then resume their regular meals. It gives your body a chance to slowly wake up. I hope this helps you, your experience sounds dreadful.
@@TrixieJFerguson Thanks for the advice..Can't hurt to give this a try.
@@cindygonzales8886
I heard bone broth is very good after a fast, easy on the stomach.
Hi, did you figure out how to avoid the diarrhea?
I have been on keto 5 weeks lost 9 pounds went down one pant size I feel great only thing I have diahrea. I thaught its cause I drink ketones or cause I don't have a gallbladder or cause I have fatty liver. ? So why am I get the diahrea??
Sound way too Low !! 😢
I'm having to do this with 1/ 4 Grannie Smith Apple this interferes with insulin
I'll try chia seeds thank you
Celery juice helps me poop great. Plus. I,m taking. Turmeric and ginger helps me poop. Good. Too
How long should I wait having diahorrea before I stop keto?
I have diverticulosis and had pain when I ate chia pudding. I thought it would be okay because I was letting the chia seeds fully swell and absorb all the water before I ate them. But it still cause me pain. I'd have to think that chia seeds that aren't swelled yet and you're swallowing them are going to cause more pain. Has anybody else with diverticulitis try this?
I had a colon resection ascending and partial transverse. Having constipation 😞
I have day 10 keto, i dont do heavy oils.
I only use two teaspoon al day, i get reflux, so i must avoid heavy oils. I only use minium. 10 days keto and i havent lost any weight
I have trouble with dry stool. What causes this. ?
In mexico it is very common that they serve lemonade with chia seeds Can one drink it with stevia drops and stay in ketosis
What about flaxseed?
I take flaxseed for the constipations, on keto
I’ve been keto for over 5 months, I’ve lost 50 pounds and have had diarrhea the entire time! I have no pain or cramping just very loose stools. Do I need to be concerned?
I've been on Keto for almost a year; about 3 months ago I started to have very loose bowels first thing in the morning. I googled and thought it was called "dumping syndrome." The amount of info out there is overwhelming. I also just checked my labs online and my blood glucose and cholesterols are extremely high - yet have been eating little to no carbs. Have appt. with my doc next week; hope she doesn't want me to start on statins.
Julia Entz --
Do you take probiotics? Prebiodics too are good.
I tried eating a lot of veg when I first started Keto. I too had diarrhea at first. After cutting back the vegetables to almost none, my bowel movement were almost perfect. I’m 98% carnivore now and all stomach, skin and other things are perfect. I’ve come to realize that we don’t need much in the way of fiber and maybe not at all!
Mark LeBlanc I am almost completely carnivore as well. Hasn’t had that much effect except with my ketones and blood sugars. I do not take a probiotic. Maybe I will investigate that as well. Maybe something fermented like kombucha or sauerkraut??
Julia Entz -
Yogurt, kimchi, keefer, and all that stuff is good, but if you take probiotics, you will know within a day or so if it effective or not. There will be no question if it helped or not.
Do magnesium supplements help for constipation? I hear so many people say low magnesium causes constipation.
Yes!!! Horribly for me, unfortunately. Both Magnesium Citrate 150 mg, and Magnesium Bisglycinate 200mg cause diarrhea for me. I mean it's like taking a pee out of the wrong hole if you catch my drift. If you want to try it I'd suggest starting with a smaller dose if that is possible. The citrate version is known to cause diarrhea but I'd read that the Bisglycinate version was less likely but it didn't work for me. I'm going to start taking one every two or three days instead of every day and maybe I can find an equillibrium.
Johnny Penso -
I like magnesium Taurate
@Johnny Penso I use mag transdermal spray now on any part of skin. Taken orally contributed to impossible situation for me!!!!!!!!!!!
I am hitting 20-25 carbs a day and generally eat a large green salad every day if possible. My stool is softer and smoother on keto for 3 months now than it was for 15 years eating a so-called "healthy" diet with lots of fibre, whole grains, fruit etc.
Johnny Penso - it’s real!! Folks don’t think it’s possible until they experience it for themselves.
do a show on FAT FASTING? please..
I started keto on 1st of Jan. 21 straight days I had diarrhea. I only stop eating any carb. so stop eating cheese and spicy food. it help like a week but im back again so I don't what to do
Did you find any solution for the diarrhea?
it lasted 2 months and it stop. in 3 years I lost 60 lb. @@geertruivanbroekhoven7209
I am watching this 4 years later. Is the chia seed solution still the recommended solution for keto constipation?
Well... that explains all the liquid in the beginning and then...nothing...radio silence.... I got to a point where no stool softener was helping and i looked pregnant. I had to resort to an enema which was NOT pleasant but I can now marvel at my flat abdomen. Chia seeds will be my new buddy from now on :p
But what about during OMAD weeks if bowel movements are comfortably happen ones every three days?
I have been on the toilet all day with the runs and I haven't eaten bc I have zero appetite. I've been eating a good amount of fat (more than the average person) for several year's so I don't think it could be a fat issue. I can't afford to lose much weight. I'm doing this to heal, improve vitamin deficiencies and gain weight. I never had IBS or any gastrointestinal issues. This is horrible and making me want carbs.
I cannot consume chia seed because of my low blood plesure and it incrase acid in my digestion. I always get constipation with or without ketogenic diet. How to overcome my constipation without magnesium milk and chia seed?
I have microscopic colitis thoughts?
What about excess bile diarrhoea or BAD and BAM on keto diet how to address it
Why i habent lost any weight with keto, 10 days on it. I use only 2 teaspoon of oil for all day.
I have a good amount of gallstones, my doctor says it should come out, should I get it out, and if I do, what effects will that have on me long term? Thank you, Karen
just sayin... my daughter looked after old people as well for a few years, and she said worse than looking after old peoples dentures, was the people who still had their own teeth, they were nearly impossible to clean. so dentures when you get real old might be a good thing?
I’m sitting here constipated and did the massage. It worked. If it keeps up l’ll do the chia seeds thanks
Just stir the seeds into yogurt and let them swell for 15 mins and then eat it.
Just do YOGA..!! Great Indian practice, it simply works..!!
Can you do this with organic psyllium powder as well?
Do you take the chia seeds every hour while you're awake the first 2 to 3 days?
So when on carnivore keto,more far less protein should help or more protein less fat is better?
Did she say fiber is a no no on a keto diet?
Can u do chia seeds while fasting?
What about people with diverticulosis with the chia seeds?
Ooops! Haha, shoulda just shut up and watched!
I have zero peristalsis. I would like to try the Chia seed protocol but I am scared as they are very high in oxalate and I believe everything that’s wrong with my gut is because of Oxalate sensitivity from heavy antibiotic use. Any suggestions I’m desperate
You could try Zen Basil Seeds
I can avoid going to the bathroom for a few days on keto, with all the butter and milked coffee. It's the vegetables that give the shits, particularly cabbage and especially sour cabbage soup with pork. The carbs in any vegetables are a real threat. I don't eat any veg to reserve carb budget for dairy, liver, peanut but, eggs.
How can anyone have pasta or grains without fat to exercise the gall bladder? The food would be in a solid clump that has to be cut with a knife. Particularly the bland corn of America.
Seems I always have a problem when I am traveling. CALM is my go to. Drinking more water helps.
Teri Trombly - the calm magnesium replacement is awesome. The cheapest version is milk of magnesia... add a tablespoon to the water you sip on all day.
Dr. Boz, which Milk of Magnesia do you prefer?
Didn’t this bowel message kill Andy Warhol?
I dont have a gald bldder, so this means i need to wait until i stoop having this explosive diarria? 😬
Is there a way that i can help my liver produce wathever it needs to digest the fats ??? Is in it bad for my liver to work so much ???? Since i dont have the other organ that helps with this proccess ? Please help 😭😱
Chia seeds made me compacted. Not very comfortable going #2. I soak overnight too, and love the texture. Almost like tapioca. I guess I was just eating too much at a time. So I haven’t eaten them for a long time. Does anyone know the fix for this???
I put my Chia seeds in my smoothies. I only use one tablespoon and have not had any complications.
Does anyone ever choke on the dry seeds ???
You take each tablespoon of dry seeds with a glass of sole' water.
4:50 - chia seeds. How much water?
Swallow one tablespoon of dry chia seeds every hour with a glass of sole' (salt) water. "Keto Continuum Workbook" page 43
40oz of coffee helps! ; )
i've been doing keto now since jan - so 6 months and try to be daily
@rosedragon108 How did you go? Same here. Keto since feb. Runs just started. Lomotil helps. Did psyllium help you? If so how much did you take? Do you still take it? Before starting keto I always took 1 tablespoon daily soaked in water. Just not sure if I should start again. It must have carbs. I thought I was fat adapted but might have been a bit heavy with cream in coffee. Possibly the explosions are a reaction to that. Anyway I would like tp know how you are going.
Me too. Not sure what to do now. I can't stay with KETO if this doesn't stop,
@@dorsetboronia2570 Any changes for you. I've been having this for a couple weeks and can't keep going like this. She says see your dr but they will just tell me to stop Keto. Most drs don't agree with it anyway.
@Candy Grammel Yes I practically never get the runs now. It settled down with dairy free probiotics. One capsule a day. I hoped that one bottle of 30 would be enough but if I forget it then I do have some urgency. My dr suggested it was fat malabsorption. She is pretty good at accepting the low carb. But she knows nothing about it. So I have as little fat as possible. Awkward, but am fat adapted before this happened thank goodness. Hope you can get success because it would be a shame to give up.
@Candy Grammel Also fasting definitely helps. Dr suggested alternate day, ie. eat one meal every 48 hrs. Also have done that - improves how I feel too.
Thank God I'm not a doctor.
HELP. I just finished a water/ only Fast ( somecoffee too.) I have been constipated for weeks. thought the fast would do it. But no results for 3days since finished Fast.
I am now taking the Chia seed, two hours in start of third hour. I am wondering if I have to FAST during this Chia seed taking?? Or can I drink watered down green
smoothy with avocado and luttuse??? Or go back to total fast. I am getting worrried about constipation for so long. Can I take milk of magnesea to help ???
