In reply to constipation- need help desperately!, posted by babs on December 17, 2002, at 9:58:27
I had a huge problem with constipation on a drug- I think it was a MAOI. I tried everything- milk of mag, senna, metamucil, on and on. Flax seed was the solution:1. Purchase bulk flax seed at your local natural grocery store.
2. Grind flax seed in coffee or other grinder.
3. Add 2-3 teaspoons daily (or whatever works) to cereal, milk, smoothie or whatever.It really worked for me and it actually tastes good!
Best of luck,
Peter
> Ever since I started taking Adderall I've been extremely constipated. I just took some laxatives but need a long term solution. What do people do for this horrible side-effect? I've never been what you would call "regualr" but this is ridiculous! I would really love a natural remedy if anyone has one!
