What's wrong with just eating the prunes?? I've used dried fruits, prunes, apricots, etc. as well as food that has a lot of fiber like beans, depending on what the situation is over the past year and have finally been able to regulate myself.? After 9 years of bowel problems, this has been so much help to me.
I haven't had as much trouble with constipation as I have had with loose stools.? Frankly, for me, constipation has been much easier to deal with, but that's my body.? Now that I've said that, I hope things don't go back to having problems again.? There were many times, sometimes for months, that I was afraid to leave my home.? I suffered from C-diff, where the bad bugs?had overtaken my gut and there were hardly any good bugs left.? It has taken me a long time to balance that out again.? That's what antibiotics can do to you if you take a few.??

I learned from a chef that you can substitute olive oil for any oil in your recipes....and you can substitute butter in any recipe that calls for shortening or margarine. ? I've been a happy baker ever since.? :-) ?? ~ Lynn
