FLAXSEED

Hey All, Which type (brand) (powder, oil) of flaxseed do you use to help with constipation? Thanks Pete

Hi Pete. I think is saw this post on the Cali board. Was that you. Did you get your answer? I don't use flaxseed. I used colace when it was problematic early on. And for major issues I used glycerin suppositories. Both are fine post op (of course always run new things past your doctor). I think someone suggested benefiber, but I was told by my surgeon not to use it this early out. Take care, Rachel

Hello Pete: I use BARLEANS Flaxseed oil in the liquid. I take 2 tablespoons a day. In the begininng it helped with constipation, now I am having some difficulty.... Good luck with the flaxseed oil. I have heard that men respond to the flaxseed oil better then women. Cheri

Hello Pete: i have been using Fiber Plus. I buy the Sugar Free. It works well, and my surgeon okayed it. Good Luck. Brenda
