Undigested Veggies

For about the last 2 or 3 weeks, I've seen undigested carrots and green beans in

my stool (everyone's favorite subject ;-)). This is kind of odd, because I've

never had undigested food the whole time I've been on SCD (1 year today!!!). I

digested them find right after surgery too. The veggies are cooked soft, just

like always. Can a body just up and change it's mind about a food it's handled

fine for such a long time?

The only thing that has changed during this time is that I've been eating less

calories, reduced mostly in the form of carbs and fat. I also had a CT

enterography a week ago, but the problem started before that. I've only been

eating stage 1 and 2 foods since surgery.

The body can abruptly decide it doesn't want to go there. My system does

it from time to time. And for no particular reason that I can discern

except a sudden stress or something. (We won't discuss what the system

has been doing this last 6-8 weeks, with Mom's last illness and

all!)

One thing I find helps me is to take a couple of Lyosan whenever I'm

consuming something which has suddenly become problematical. The extra

probiotics seem to give my gut a kick-start that lets it return to

digesting the foods it was handling.

Thanks for the input Marilyn! I don't have any pills, but I can certainly try

eating a little yogurt with my veggies.
