I seem to be still hanging in with the digestive issues by eating a basically raw food diet with lots of OG sprout salads. Constipation is still intermittent but thank you for the suggestions. I'll check them out and present them to my GP for consideration.
Hi icelander

Do you have access to kiwifruit to include in your diet? - over here (NZ) it's a well known natural laxative and is often recommended by doctors for seniors with constipation issues.
