Y'all need more fiber in ya life

[–] phorq@lemmy.ml 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My toilet paper is already practically a pillow, how many more fibers do you want?

I have IBS. Might as well ask us if we've tried yoga.

FYI, 'have you tried yoga?' In chronic illness speak means 'can I offer you unsolicited advice with the undertones of presuming that you have not tried to the best of your abilities to cure yourself of an incurable disease that has not even come close to be fully treatable?'

Not saying that's what OP said, just saying thats how it comes off to most non-chronic illness sufferers.

Ok, but have you tried essential oils?

[–] ShakeThatYam@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Also water. If you eat a bunch of fiber without water... believe it or not, also constipation.

No, he needs a squatty potty. I can’t believe nobody else in these comments has mentioned them.

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fuck, I forgot what a cult following those weird things have.

[–] Jessica@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It’s not a weird cult following? Humans have been squatting to shit for millennia. It’s just a return to our roots because it’s what works…

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

No, I meant the squatty potty people end up popping all over the place to mention how good they are. There was a lot of it on Reddit especially, back when they were new.

Now they've all been replaced by people expounding on the pleasures of bidets...

[–] GreatGrapeApe@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago

No they need fiber and water if they are struggling.

And how do you deal with corn then? 🌽

[–] Confused_Emus@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Wash it off and toss it in the next pot of chili!

[–] kamiheku@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Corn? I don't remember eating corn!

[–] Granixo@feddit.cl 1 points 1 year ago

You sure about that?

[–] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I don't think that's going to help the lactose intolerance and potential IBS.

This is more like has an intense case of food poisoning or something rather than a regular BM.
