Find the soluble fiber and put a teaspoon in your first coffee,or juice. Flavorless,completely dissolves,and the results are ,pardon me please, spectacular. This takes a few days to happen,but has provided the most results of any over-the-counter I've ever used. My Doctor is pleased as well.
I used to carry pictures of my kid,but now...
JUST KIDDING !!

Arch
I really h**e to tell you this
but as you age
your bowels will become more and more
important to you
and believe me
you will try most anything to make your bowel movements more regular
kudos to your lovely wife for havin the forethought to start you out early
you will thank her later

Don't know if it's true Arch, but when John Wayne died, I heard his autopsy said 40 pounds was fecal matter, and his schedule was once a week. When I turned 55 everything started going downhill. I never drank too much, didn't smoke, but one day I had a bad, very rare, headache, took either an extra strength Tylenol or Ibuprofen pill, broke into my first and only full body rash, next thing I knew I had diabetes, kidney damage, and high BP. My advice is to keep doing what you're doing and stay away from the Tylenol and Ibuprofen. Maybe eat more oatmeal to keep momma happy.

I've never had a full body rash from anything. I only take ibuprofen when I'm really sore anymore.
I worked my way off of blood pressure meds with self control, I think. I started eating better, no salt, and most important, I learned to let it go. Don't get mad. It is what it is to a point.
And I like oatmeal! A bit of butter, and honey, and you've got good stuff!!
And did you know that if you can get local honey, it helps with allergies?

I've been told that bowel movements amongst the elderly in Europe is a common topic of conversation. Evidently this is another invasive alien into our own nation although it is only rhetoric for the time being. Wait until guidelines for conversations are printed on boxes of Special K. It started with that damn pizza replacing the American hamburger! We're losing our national identity and American ethos. Someone needs to start making citizens arrests. Hey Barney.....get your bullet out.

Didn't know about the local honey and allergies. I did get a little poison ivy rash building fence lines but only on my hands. Never had allergies until a few years ago, not sure if it's cedar or oak pollen. I little salt spray in each nostril clears it right up. Thanks for the tip. A little peanut butter in the oatmeal and you can cut back on the honey and sugar.

I can eat the sausage and eggs but if I eat the biscuits it takes a lot of insulin to get my sugar back down in the normal range. Thanks for rubbing it in. I sure do miss being able to eat anything I like. Israel says they may have a cure soon. I sure hope so.

I agree, but some prescriptions have to be doctor approved and renewed I only have to go every four months to get em renewed. I already know how tall I am and how much I weigh, have my own BP machine, so just renew my meds doc. I get my insulin from Wal Mart, it's a lot cheaper no prescription needed. I'm not buying him a boat or a new car. No additional test until I ask for one.

You got older and the topics change. Go with the flow and dodge when you think you can get away with it. Keep drinking the beer, it'll keep you regular as long as you don't over do it. Mike

What no hash browns or fried potatoes with that?
I like fried eggs over easy fried potatoes in bacon grease
and sausage patties with two pieces of wheat toast with strawberry jelly.
