I remember as a kid (pre-crohns) my mother telling me drinking too much apple cider makes you poop. I've noticed the last 2 days while drinking apple cider, my normal constipation isnt as bad, and I'm actually able to eat popcorn (had a small bag tonight). For the first time in 2 years I felt normal.

I'm not eating popcorn again, not sense in pushing the limits, but it was a nice escape to pre-crohns life.

Has anyone had apple cider and noticed any improvements in symptoms?

No way man!
Apple cider gives me major D.
I stay away from all fruits high in fiber, so I should have known better.

Maybe I'm weird, but I prefer diarrhea, helps me feel like I'm flushing everything out (no pun). Constipation is an issue for me,

It's a common belief among filipinos that bananas make one constipated and mangos make you poop!
I'm not sure why?
But if constipation is an issue for you, just keep eating fruit!
I have to stay away from pretty much all of them.
:P

I love cider and now I'm curious what the effects will be on me!

It may be the pectin that's helped your symptoms. Are you drinking hard cider (alcoholic) or the nonalcoholic kind?

Both apple cider and apple juice makes me much worse. I used to buy it for my son when he was little and having constipation!

I really want to give this a try now. I love cider and constipation is an issue for me.
