Thank you so much Dr Malik, for expanding your medical discussions;
GI tract problems are something I'm dealing with.... At times it even affects my overnight urination as well.

2:04💊 Antibiotics can disrupt gut bacteria, leading to bloating and other gastrointestinal issues, emphasizing the importance of cautious antibiotic use.
4:58🚰 To combat constipation, prioritize hydration with adequate water intake, and consider magnesium supplements like magnesium oxide or magnesium citrate.
6:24☕ Hot coffee and water can stimulate bowel movements, aiding in constipation relief, while movement, such as aerobic exercise, helps promote regular bowel function by aiding fermentation and serotonin production.

It could have been worth mentioning FODMAP in relation to fibers, some stop eating fibers (that we need a lot of) because of discomfort when in reality it might just be one or a couple of sources that triggers.

I went to the ER once because of pain I had in my stomach after waiting there all night I finally got seen and they said it was gas. I drank bunch of water and it went away. Last year I went in for worse pain and they said it's gas. After a few days it was only worse so I went in again and they found a kidney stone.

Very good info. I always have a cuppa before morning poop.

At crunch time "Cascara Sagrada" can be a big help. I used to take it every day, until I came across info that warned that constant use of it could weaken the muscles of the bowels causing one to need it's use for the rest of their life. So now I only take it during difficult times of extra stiff bowel movements ! PS edit: I noticed a note I placed on my bottle which reads that "Long term use can also damage the liver."

Hello, where may I ask a personal question without everyone see' it? Thank you

[dewholdingsllc]

You can get too much gut bacteria.
After eliminating all the potential problems she mentioned a gastro doctor would probably recommend a Low FODMAP diet.

Low FODMAP diet is not really easy to follow and manage especially with children who don’t need it.

[czechmate]

I don’t use any antibiotics unless I absolutely have to. I let my bodies defense system do as much as possible before I call a doctor.
