Re: Nuts, Seeds, Eggs, taurine

[Guest guest]

Yes, I had a violent attack of the gallbladder as well after a whole

evening of eating sunflower seeds. I also can have that same eaction

of eating, having a " forced " normal BM and then getting the runs

shortly after. And lots of intestinal gas.....bloated stomach.

Apples often do this to me.

I think too much stimulation to the bowel. BUT...I seem to have less

of a reaction these days to apples and nuts, but still do have some

over stimulation. (Ha - I just can't work too far from a

toilet.......had a bowel resection a few years back and never been

the same since)

A change from my old eating habit (which already were fairly good)

have been the best thing for me.

I am still considering getting the colonoscopy that the Dr. ordered.

Never heard (that I can remember) of TAURINE. Please elaborate.

Thanks
