Patricia, if you're having trouble with constipation you may want to try Herbal Fiber Blend from Aim Corp.I have been using it for the last two years quite successfully. Good luck.

Dairy interferes, protein in the evenings, yes sugar, no sugar. Eat healthy - we've even stopped the vitamins and other supplements, just taking necessary meds and eating more fruits, veg, brown rice, fish, homemade trail mix with nuts and dried fruits.... and chocolate chip cookies once in awhile. We have found a very easy, adequate routine that seems to be working - considering all things. I do agree that constipation is the biggest enemy - drugs don't seem to work as well. Changing our diet allowed my husband (pwp and 2 pallidotomies) to give up the daily laxative. This is what works for us - could be different for others. Good luck. > > pat & burdette (pwp) > Boulder MT > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] > In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
