Warning - I need to talk about poo

Drink masses of water
Eat nuts/seeds
Use psyllium husks (you can get some brands with added pro-biotics
If you have some spare carb allowance, and enjoy porridge, then oatbran is the same as porridge, but with less carbs and more fibre. A tablespoon of it on yogurt is delicious and works wonderfully. You can add it to stews and gravies too, although the texture isn't smooth.

I must admit that since I dropped my carbs from av 70g to av 40 g, things have slowed down. And my fitness pal has my fibre intake much lower than it should be.

With 3 great aunts who died of bowel cancer, I should know better!

Thank you for the reminder.
