FYI, 'have you tried yoga?' In chronic illness speak means 'can I offer you unsolicited advice with the undertones of presuming that you have not tried to the best of your abilities to cure yourself of an incurable disease that has not even come close to be fully treatable?'
Not saying that's what OP said, just saying thats how it comes off to most non-chronic illness sufferers.
Also water. If you eat a bunch of fiber without water... believe it or not, also constipation.
No, he needs a squatty potty. I can’t believe nobody else in these comments has mentioned them.
It’s not a weird cult following? Humans have been squatting to shit for millennia. It’s just a return to our roots because it’s what works…
No, I meant the squatty potty people end up popping all over the place to mention how good they are. There was a lot of it on Reddit especially, back when they were new.
Now they've all been replaced by people expounding on the pleasures of bidets...
This is more like has an intense case of food poisoning or something rather than a regular BM.
(since nobody seems to know, this is a scene from the Prisoner, which is what "who does #2 work for" is a reference to)
I'm pretty sure this is a reference to Austin Powers, where he's giving the Irish hitman a swirly in a casino bathroom and yelling "WHO DOES NUMBER 2 WORK FOR" while a gambler played by Tom Arnold in the next stall is trying to encourage him on.
You are correct. But what Austin Powers was referencing was this scene from The Prisoner. Top notch 60's TV!
Some people are blessed with normal bowel movements with average amounts of fiber. We participate in a CSA so have dozens of pounds of veggies every week. Every meal is veggie heavy. My body doesn't care, it's a lazy ass.
Animal products can have fiber if it is either forcemeat like chicken and apple sausages but on its own only plant foods have dietary fiber
The examples you gave of animal products having fiber are cases when they mixed with vegetables which actually have the fiber.
I am convinced that of all the secrets of the world that the elder generations hadn’t passed onto us…taking a fiber supplement is the biggest improvement to daily life.
True. Went to a farmers market and bought a bunch cuz they were cheap. Stupid ass me decided to eat then and there. Thirty minutes later I was blowing red lights to try to reach a safe place to drop der UberDeuce. I swore that the toilet was screaming at me for a week after that
Yeah, bananas help solidify it. They are also mildly antacid. I'll take that over fighting for my life after enjoying a tasty hot sauce!
I once was really tired in a mall and went to the (public) toilet just to sit my ass down and hide from people.
