[Guest guest]

After reading this article it sounds like any digestive problems should be addressed with this type of protocol. Wellness practitioners demonstrate this practice. Would love to have a degree in this kind of stuff.............----- Forwarded Message ----To: miralax Sent: Wed, June 20, 2012 8:30:06 PMSubject: Re: Re: New Here - Miralax Alternatives?

omg, what is this condition called? Makes me wonder if the enzymes is trying to tell you something (being that if it caused constipation it may be saying it's not what the body wanted?) Here's the amino acid for constipation we were told to use? http://www.shop-orthomolecular.com/store/DigestzymeV.html what is the names of the probiotic's you've tried? Have you tried VSL#3? What's nice about kirkman's is, they're gluten, corn and casein free. They are a company made for special needs. It's my understanding that some people use enzymes to keep drains clean. I'm not a enzyme expert but considering they use them for cleaning drains

and cleaning out the gut, makes me wonder why they'd give to someone with a bowel disease? Help me understand what the condition is and why they suggested this. I've never heard of such a thing? HTHJeanie To: miralax Sent: Wed, June 20, 2012 1:42:42 PMSubject: Re: New Here - Miralax Alternatives?

I've never heard of amino acids doing that. But the formula is only amino acids, no proteins or fiber whatsoever. We knew about the gastro disease first. She was only on the mirilax because of the formula, and only on the formula because of the gastro disease (and because she's allergic to all food.)

We have done high dose probiotics, but they don't seem to help at all. We also can't do xylitol (or any probiotics with inulin/FOS) because of her gastro issues.
