LBA's and GI Discomfort

[myosin]

I just bought several bottles of LBA's and I'm liking them ALOT. However, has anyone experienced any GI disturbance/bloating? I am and I am suspecting I took much too soon for my GI to get used to the glycerin. I'm supposing I may just have to wait it out until I get used to it?

Anyone else experience this?

Take in more fiber. Any time I slack off on the fiber, I feel it a little.

Yes, glycerine gives some people GI problems. Mainly loose bowels.

Its most likely from the glycerol as others have said....dont worry. Anytime you make a significant change in diet your body will react. Unfortunately, its not always comfortable. I went through the same thing..it gets better...but it may take a while.

Glycerine huh? That makes sense now, I thought it was all the raw eggs I take.

Ugh!

Weirdo!

Thanks for the input guys. I didn't have a lot of loose stools, but there were a few odd looking loose ones (TMI? ). My other thought is that since glycerol is hydrophilic, it would make sense if my GI is a bit bloated.

I agree- I'm hoping in a couple weeks my GI will be more acclimated and will just have to tough it out. I just don't like trying to do a front double-bi and feeling/looking like I have GH-gut

Fiber- as a matter of fact, my fiber intake did decrease a little since starting the LBA's. I used to get 26 grams via highly ground flax seed, so I will try to get that back up and see how it goes.

Appreciate it!

The old LBA's bothered me horribly. Like I had to run to the bathroom immediately. I had to stop their use, because after 2 weeks, it was causing me problems.

Interestingly enough, I never had any gassy or bloated issues. Basically just the immediate need to to go to the bathroom.

Then I started them again after everything went away, and I used small amounts increasing little by little.

Now the New LBA's caused me no issues at all. So I use them regularly.
