Ref jelly babies..
My dsns insisted I had jelly babies as hypo stoppers.
I stopped the milk and sugar that I had when home, and my favourite which was Lidls mini mars equivalent when I was out..
After doing this for 12 months, my bowel got impacted 3 times in 3 months. Saw a gastroenterolist. Had lots of tests, but he asked me if I had changed anything about my diet... Answer was no, I'm really good at eating fruit and veg and white meat etc.. Then I thought... Jellybabies... I have stopped them totally, and have dolly mixtures or m&s soft mints.. Or roses at christmas..
Since stopping jelly babies my stomach has returned to being normal again. The shapes test the hospital did on me before I stopped the jb said that I had 48 out of 60 shapes still inside my colon after 5 days.. Should have been none .. And I was diagnosed with slow transit colon.
All meds have stopped for my stomach and the jelly babies.. I suspect that the jelly babies somehow afftected the speed of the food processing and moving.. But havent got proof.. Until I either get another blocked bowel in which case I am wrong.
