Regarding water intake, I drink a lot of water, as I dehydrate easily. But I have noticed that even though I hydrate very well, it does not seem to help with hard stool; instead, I simply pee a lot more. What seems to help is eating more vegetables, as I think that the water that is present in them SLOWLY disperses in my colon and helps (I trust the fiber helps too). When I eat water-packed vegetables, my system works better.

So good to hear a Dr saying eat less fiber... In the beginning of my fissure journey 5 months ago I tried eating loads of fiber because that's what all the Drs told me to do. I kept thinking it makes no sense... After hurting myself even more because of these recommendations I tried to just listen to my body.... I eat less fiber and try to eat smaller portions and more balanced meals with fat, carbohydrates and protein.... I'm starting to feel better... I'm not healed but I'm better than before that's for sure.

How is everything going with your fissure? I experience the some problem for over a year now, but my Dr sais my fissure is starting to heal. I started to drink alot of bone broth and I think this helped alot. Also I'm trying to eat more animal fats, because I was plant based the last couple of years and I think this is what caused the fissure, as I have never had problem with constipation. I think it was all the raw vegetables and smoothies. Hope this helps😊 Also my Dr recommended alot of fruits and vegetables but I did the exact opposite, as I was eating mostly that and I somehow got the fissure. So, I don't think fiber is the answer

I recommend eating water & fibre rich foods a lot. Sometimes I eat several sticks of celery for breakfast with a tablespoon of cheese-spread sprinkled with herbs or spices to dip them in. If you want something sweet you could try watermelon. I realise a lot of fibre is not right for everyone but take it easy with the low-residue diet unless you have things that clearly point to that being the right direction for you. I had to do a low residue diet for another reason & it resulted in my insides being clogged up with a heavy clay-like substance.

I am eating-drinking this on 2 doses ..lets say 7 afternoon and 8 afternoon. And late the night i can also eat whatever i want. The next morning i will most likelly have easy and soft poops Especially if when i wake and while drinking my first coffe NOT SEAT ON MY COMPUTER meaning stay OFF the chair for the 1 hour of my new day! I hope that helps some if not all. Great videos and be well. PS..i dont know if that works because the salt by the knorr cubes dont allow to absorb the water from small intensitine sending the hole water to the big intensitine...but...it works...

The reason why constipation is harder poop is because the poop sits in your colon longer and the inevitable water stealing happens. People think the poop is hard so it doesn't pass. It's actually the opposite. It gets hard because it's in the colon too long and loses too much water and then it doesn't pass easy. Ugh.

I am in the same vicious cycle . I think I'll eat lots of dried fruit and wheat bran to help me - when really , it's going against me and I'm aggravating it.

Interesting! I think it depends on your case and your body. I find that poop moves relatively slow in my intestines, and when it takes too long, my body absorbs so much water from it that it get hard... so the the bulking effect helps move it along a bit faster so it's not as dry by the time I go to the bathroom (yes, I also need to make sure to drink a lot)... By the way: white rice, white bread and pasta are good examples of low res. food. Not much nutritional value (and can't go on their own), but they can easily bulk up a meal for you

@MyShockingStunningChannel, What about taken some Magnesium 400-500mg a day (citrate/oxide) and a table spoon (or 2, depends) of extra olive oil before going to sleep or as soon as you get up or one table spoon before going to sleep and another table spoon as soon as you get up. I hope this helps.
