Well...I found my problems with my constipation and stomach problems disappeared when I began my morning with a bowl of oatmeal and a yogurt. After trying every OTc and prescribed med it seems silly that it all came down for me to be as simple as eating oatmeal, which I can't stand by the way. It's a small price to pay and I eat it real quick, and my Jack Russell gets two tablespoons along side me every morning too.......yes he is a spoiled brat but I love him anyway.
