Interesting.

[Boscoejean]

would using a percussion massager on the abdomen possibly lead to similar benefit?

so after thinking about this I searched and this came up

We don't need more medical/pharmaceutical waste. Couldn't a vibration plate machine do the same thing plus the other benefits from it's use?ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl...

A pill is more convenient but more costly.

Also, motegrity.

I found that sugar free gum or sugar free honey flavored cough drops act as a laxative if you take throughout the day.

My drooling was so bad that the above was my only way of curbing. I noticed that my bowel movements increased to two or three daily while taking.

[Little_apple in reply to Sharonkay]

the act of chewing increases your digestive enzymes. But sugar free gum can raise your insulin because your body thinks food is coming and thinks it will be sweet bc your mouth is sensing sweetness.

[Despe in reply to Little_apple]

Depends on the sweetener.

[Little_apple in reply to Despe]

Good point. Do you know which sweeteners this does not apply to? But the act of just chewing does increase digestive enzymes (good) but can (according to Dr. Boz) increase insulin. She referenced personal experience and patience experiencing this.

[Despe in reply to Little_apple]

Mannitol and Xylitol. Hubby chews Epic Xylitol Gum.

They will sell whatever we are willing to buy.
