Answer

I like oatmeal with nuts, seeds, berries and Greek yogurt. It keeps me full for a really long time. No bathroom issues. A sudden and drastic increase in your fiber intake can make your gut unhappy though.

Answer

Personally I just started this habit after reading about it on this subreddit. Unfortunately I’ve had diarrhea the last two days so far, but I’m guessing it’s part of the process.

How’s your experience been? Bathroom-wise

Answer

I never had any problem with my bowel moments. I have 1 to 2 movements per day regardless of what I eat, but It seems like my blood pressure has gotten lower since I started adding flax seed into my oatmeal just about every morning. My blood pressure was already healthy before adding it though, but I swear my top number has been down by 8 points on average after consuming it for a few months.
