Constipation Woes
-
And here's Georgi Dinkov's recent thread:
Vitamin B1 (thiamine) improves digestion and ameliorates constipation.

Further update: back to square one. B1 only worked for about a day. Not sure what else to do. I’ve tried B1, 1g of Cascara Sagrada, magnesium and I’m on 1 grain of thyroid. I poop every two days, sometimes every three. I don’t feel bad or bloated which is odd. The only factor I can think of that has changed that may have caused this is I quit nicotine which I know can help move your bowls.

Magnesium Oxide is a gentle laxative/ stool softener, can be cycled with Cascara.
500-1000 daily mg doses are effective. Taken before bed, guarantees bowel movement the next day.
It doesn't solve the root cause, though. Just a bandaid. -
@Lothric take T3, that cured my constipation
