defintely, life changing

So here's my current story. I was tired of pain and urgency. I eat a lot of salads and roughage and unwilling to give it up. Everyone says cook down the roughage and eat just smooth foods. Don't have time, don't enjoy it. So I got one of these juicers that pulverize the fruits and vegetables instead of strain the juices out of it. Also grinds up grains (I use flax seed to lower cholesteral) So now that the rough stuff isn't going through the colon, my BMs are regular and not urgent and smooth. I'm maintaining more fluids and not feeling sluggish I believe because I'm getting the nutrition. It's also relieved joint pain.

Had one diarrhea bout (no pain) and believe it was as a result of ground up roasted sunflower seeds. I know nuts give me diarrhea, but I haven't had trouble with the flax seed.

Anyway, there is a question in all of this. Might I still be inflamed but just not feeling it because the smooth liquified roughage is not roughing things up so to speak.

i guess the question i always ask is, why does it matter ?

what happens if you don't gerberize your veggies ? is that the only change that you've made that results in better poops ?

my point is, if it works, keep doing it -

Maybe the disappearance of inflammation in my joints is also a sign that the liquifying of veggies and fruits (getting all the nutrients to the cells) has also tamped down inflammation in the colon. Maybe the two are connected.

Impressed with your regimen, soystud, but I don't think I'd go off the meds. Admire you for it though.
