Oy. I single anecdote is not meaningful plus nobody claims that eating plants keeps people from getting any diseases. Diet & lifestyle is 85% of it and genetics are 15% of it. Sometimes doing everything perfect, even from birth, you can still lose. Just like how some people can do everything wrong for decades and still win a long life....George Burns smoked cigars and drank hard alcohol for decade after decade after decade and yet was never fat, was getting around quite well into his mid 90's and lived to be 100. You didn't debunk the lack of fiber argument at all. A lack of fiber increase odds of various diseases but isn't a promise that you will or won't get some disease. Use that walnut between your ears!

[@an67481]

You are right. I don’t believe the vegan diet is evolutionarily consistent and optimal for human beings… humans are the single hominid that is distinguishable by its diet and lifestyle, we’re naturally nomadic and a hunting species. We kill to eat. Others solely forage. Very big difference in evolutionary terms. And hey, a good microbiome is actually million years old. It starts in our mothers womb and gets passed on. So a consistent diet with the millions of years that led us here would be advisable. 🔥🦬🐂🦌🐐🐑

I have had one colonoscopy and about to have a second.

My body just felt so light and healthy. So maybe that’s why people do colon cleanses on their own, it’s amazing. Please people have a colonoscopy when you should, it saves lives. God bless all and prayers for a healthy life.

[@TheRealJBMcMunn]

My approach is to achieve the goal of the prep: get the solids out of the colon. So I drink the prep until the water in the bowl is clear. You'll drink less prep.

[@5Gburn]

I've heard nightmare stories of people gorging the day or two days before prep. I've designed a specific plan of eating less food (and less fiber) each succesive day starting 5 days before (tomorrow is day 1). The day before up until prep will be broth, ginger ale, etc. Prep is the prep drink mixed in lemonade (the nurse suggested that). I anticipate this to be a very easy prep.

On the subject of fiber. Well advised to have a good mix of soluble and insoluble. I also find Ginger and Coffee speed up evacuation. Lots of water helps. I go through 2 to 3 liters of water a day. People who want to promote a healthy gut biome, look into fermented cabbage and legumes. Good bacteria eats fiber. This is where you get the 60% of bacteria in normal stool. Bad bacteria eats sugar. So cut back on sugar of all kinds.

[@KarisPigNose]

Unless you're outside in the heat, that sounds like an extremely high volume of fluids to ingest. Google "hypervolemia."

Brooke Shields almost died from it. Make sure you're getting sodium in your diet.

[@TMichelle555]

Is that why i crave sugar all the time? The bacteria in my gut is sending signals to my brain to consume more sugar :0

[@BiNumLi]

Experts say it has to do with brain chemistry. Sugar stimulates opiate-like neurochemicals. Cut out white sugar and fruit sugar if you can. They are unnecessary for a good diet.

[@BiNumLi]

Absolutely true. I sprinkle two teaspoons of salt on my food per day and ensure I have at least 66% of RDA for potassium and calcium. I source CA with a citrate supplement. Potassium through whole foods. Contrary to doctor's advice salt is not a risk to your heart. And salt is vital for your brain and body chemistry. When you drink a lot you need more salt because you lose some in urine.

My father died of colon cancer - totally preventable had he just visited a doctor when he first experienced symptoms, etc. I've had three colonoscopies - the first when I was 42. It's so important to have one. The prep sucks but it just may save your life.

[@Thee-_-Outlier]

Yes, my grandfather, WW2 vet, had bloody stools for like years apparently and didn't say anything or go to a doctor. I couldn't imagine. Those were different ppl, too accustomed to silently shouldering a burden. It's an admirable trait in most cases but regarding ones own health it's a death sentence. He actually survived the colon cancer, but with a colostomy that he lived another 40 years with. In the end renal cancer got him at 86. That went fast. He died within a year of first seeing blood in his urine

​@@KrikitYTYou have to take a prep laxative and drink a bunch of fluid...which COMPLETELY cleans you out, so the doctor can see every surface inside you during the colonoscopy. The home prep is not fun because you are uncomfortably full of fluid and have to stay near the toilet until it's all consumed...and expelled. Thankfully, you typically only have to have a colonoscopy every 5 years.

Heavy metals and excess mold/mycotoxins are a real problem too and can cause constipation or diarrhea.

[@Cwgrlup]

I’m a retired nurse. We always “look in the bowl.” One of the most important things in a GI patient (or any other patient for that matter) is too assess, monitor and measure outputs of urine and feces. A patient with discoloration or other symptoms can tell us many things about the kidney, liver and other organs. If you “don’t look” you’ll eventually have a medical team looking for you when you get sick and hospitalized. The bacteria in the gut is what breaks down food and creates minerals and other nutrients which get absorbed by the body and utilized appropriately. The gut seems unimportant until you get a problem with it- and realize then that you can’t exist without a healthy gut.

I'm very disciplined and eat well, so I got regular and healthy quickly. A couple of weeks ago, I tried making sourdough, and had a slice every morning with eggs. It didn't make me feel gross or give me a headache or body aches, so I kept eating it. About a week ago, I noticed I was seriously bloated and backed up, and I cut out the bread immediately.

Look up Dr Chafee - stop eating fibre and your butt will get better. This doctor is completely wrong. The ONLY controlled study on fibre that had different groups of people on high to no fibre diets, the only ones who had all their symptoms completely heal were the ZERO fibre diet. Try carnivore - it’ll heal your gut. Humans have ZERO need for fibre. That’s how Inuits, Maasai and hadza have almost no disease and eat no fibre at all.

[@janemalins3092]

Get a squatty potty, haemorrhoids are often a cause of too much straining.

I ate an unprocessed organic vegan diet for many years and had weekly bouts of explosive diarrhea. I tried every change i could think of: elimination of different kinds of plant foods, different preparations, gluten free, etc. My health was in the shitter. I went on a mostly meat based diet and for a year now have had perfect 4 nearly every day. No diarrhea, no constipation. The fiber myth persists through absurd nutritional epidemiological studies that don't control for serious and material factors. If you are having digestion issues, ditch the plants for a couple weeks. I did eventually add in small amounts of fermented foods and small amounts of fruit the week before my period when my body requires more glucose. Otherwise i eat mostly meat and eggs. My fasting insulin went from a 7 to a 3. Chronic hives went away. Rosacea gone.

I'm 68, and over a period of ~a year, my bowel became increasingly loose until I was experiencing chronic diarrhea. My GP and gastroenterologist did every blood panel & gut panel, and found no problem. I finally started taking an over-the-counter probiotic capsule every day, and my bowel started to rapidly recover. I also reduced my carb and sugar consumption, following an intermittent fasting regimen, and eating homemade, fermented foods such as sauerkraut and kefir. I probably still need to slightly increase my fiber consumption. I'm finding however that I need to take a probiotic capsule once weekly to keep me on track. I'm not taking any antibiotics, so it's not clear to me why my gut has trouble holding onto the renewed biome. Any thoughts on this?

The problem with doctors and others adding on "if you have a normal, healthy lifestyle, you will be less likely to have these problems" is that docs then look at "the fat tub of lard" in front of them like it's all the person's fault. I used to dance 6 hours a day. At 25, I began to be poisoned by Carbon Monoxide (CO). Worse, after ABI brain injury from hypoxia, I lived in crappy substandard housing where twice more, tests demonstrated that I was exposed to extreme amounts of toxins. The last place? A woman died of unknown illness after a decade of getting sicker. I didn't know about her until after I had the place tested because I was getting sick. CO, 2 sources of Methane (one from gas lines, the other from a cesspool under the house where water collected & plants & unfortunate small animals drowned & altogether created sewer gas with high levels of Carbon Dioxide (CO2),, Hydrogen Sulfide (sp?), methane, & 2 types of black mold. This mold can be in you & not leave, also affecting your body's microbiome and ability to be the energetic, motivated you that you used to be. You get so fat you can't dance & life spirals.

@@AG-yj1jv Sorry to hear this. Doctors who do their job well (provided of course you yourself are listening and cooperate); at least give you a sense of process. That they've listened and are listening using logic and research, which will take time and many appointments (after all it's your body, they've no right to second guess your suspicions). At least follow through. Even if it was completely your own doing, the obesity (I'm not saying it is or isn't), surely they should get over their prejudices, you've come for help! Well it's easy to talk, but ultimately if the doctor isn't responding, write in a 'Complaint'. This will get them moving and copy in the relevant authority. Work out how you might go forward based on your symptoms, knowledge and distress. Don't let them get you down! Of course you could find another way to deal with this, but why should you?

The meds I'm on are bad for causing constipation, but if I eat 1/2 a chocolate bar, it kinda evens out. Once (6-7 years after my gall bladder was removed), I got so constipated that it ripped me & caused me to bleed (a LOT) after finally pushing it out. I had a shower & washed REALLY WELL, but what came out of me was BLUE - & THAT scared me. There was NO WAY to flush it DOWN, so I had to get a plastic bag & some sort of scoop to get it out & throw it out. I have been torn a least a dozen times since (once a year), but never blue again.
