Don’t get me wrong I know people who benefit from it and even swear by it. But for some it’s fucking madness to neck a load. It’s one of those health supplements that because an overload wouldn’t kill anyone it’s pretty much available everywhere. But the fallout for someone who has specific dietary requirements it’s not a good idea at all. Last time I had some I was ill for days.
My go to for example is really strong camomile tea. But for some I know that does absolutely fuck all. Totally sorts me though so I nail it. Rock n roll. You just find what suits your specific requirements there is no magic panacea.
Cankles-McJeggings The horror stories i’ve heard are the people who don’t drink enough water with it, and it clogs up the intestines when it expands in the system. Which is the opposite of what it’s meant do, which is to line your intestines and then clings on the foods so that it comes out smoothly because of its slimy texture.
You got acutely constipated?
no mate I know how to take it. I was fine on it for years but that changed when everything else did. At the time I was one teaspoon in a pint of water daily.
Cankles-McJeggings That’s perfect dosage for daily also. How did you get sick though and what happened? Shat your guts out?
Same symptoms as above for IBS. ie turned inside out, severe cramping, etc etc.
Cankles-McJeggings ahhh ok… makes sense I suppose.
Like I said mate there’s so many variables to IBS. No two cases are the same. My dad gets it if anything is cooked in Palm oil. Then you get into is it an intolerance or an allergy. A whole new ballgame. Either way it fucking ruins him for days. A lot of chippys now have signs up saying we don’t use palm oil exactly for that reason. Lots are fucked by it and also there’s the eco reasons too.
There is one variable that is constant. Minerals.

You fucking beta
Morty-C-137 he actually has a bowl of Special K with skimmed milk and a handful of mixed berries.
Millsy Lol, that’s even worse
Then the roller skates come on and it’s whooo-ooooo Bodyform for me!

That’s odd - 6 weeks ago you said to me:
“Seriously mate a cup of fucking camomile tea can fuck me up.”
Yeh and then I went on to tell you that it’s combinations. Maybe you weren’t paying much attention. On a daily basis all that sorts my stomach out in cramps is camomile tea. Then on certain days it fucks me up and makes me tired? Got that now?
Cankles-McJeggings yes I did see that bit - but if it is “combinations” then it’s not simply the “cup of fucking camomile tea” doing it then is it?!
Oh fuck off Hugo you tedious twat.
