Default An indelicate matter...

You just know from that title that I'm talking about poop.

After about a year since going gluten free I haven't had any of those toilet clogging BMs. I think my former diet caused me to have really large BMs. But for the last 10 months I was also have multiple movements every day, so perhaps I wasn't having them because they were so frequent. But I always associated those toilet clogging BMs with eating grains.

But I've changed my diet now and I'm eating paleo style. Lots of veggies, meat, eggs, nuts, some fruit. Nothing antigenic except for one new addition: Kefir. Yes, I decided to add a bit of kefir to my diet in the form of goat milk kefir. It has made my digestive system much happier but the enormous BMs are back and I clog the toilet every other day. According to Dr. Fine's lab, I am casein sensitive but I was hoping I could get away with kefir because I really wanted those bacteria.

Any insight here? Are the big BMs a sign that maybe things are going through me too quickly? I don't feel like I am overeating.

I hate to give up the kefir, I know I could ferment other stuff but I'm not crazy about the flavors. The coconut milk kefir was ok, but the grains don't really thrive in it.
