JEEEEEEEEEZ! Youse all's goin' about fixing the problem in THE silliest way! All ya hafta do is dine at an El Torito Restaurant and have a lotta chips dipped in their hottest salsa. THAT immediately takes care of any constipation you might suffer. It's recommended you not linger over a cuppa coffee, tho, 'cause when that stuff hits your system it HITS your system! <giggle> Barb Mallut (single handedly supporting El Torito Restaurant) <LOL> [log in to unmask] ---------- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange on behalf of p. l. maddux Sent: Thursday, July 02, 1998 5:59 PM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: Re: Chronic constipation-how to avoid it? My solution to regular B/M's is to drink a large glass of room temp prune juice every so often as needed. In my case it is every-other morning. Beleive it on not I learned this by watching a late night talk show (Leno I think). He made some kind of a joke that referred to Bob Dole (The somewhat old ex senator) and prune juice. It then dawned on me that I had heard that this was really helpfull at least to some people and it works wonderfull for me. And I am PO'ed at all the doctors that did not suggest this solution to me for constipation. They need to talk to me or ex Sen Dole. Lanier Maddux
