areds2 causes severe constipation. Any suggestions for substitute?

Lactulose (syrup) is brilliant!!! It really does what it says on the tin!

[fed13 in reply to fed13]

Forgot to say you can get Lactulose on prescription if necessary.

Hi you haven't said which one you are taking, I have AMD in both eyes and have had injections for just over two years, in November I was told that the fluid is drying up, and that the injections are nearing the end, ever since I was diagnosed I have been taking Retinex, also every night with a yogurt I eat Gogi berries, and blue berries, whether these two things have helped my eyes who knows, but know or not I will continue with both of them forever more. Take care

Dear Falconrae,

The antioxidants and carotenoids in the AREDS2 formula can also be consumed by eating a healthy diet, rich in leafy greens and orange and yellow coloured fruits and vegetables. Please refer to the links below for further information on diet and nutrition.

I use MacuShield Original Chewable. I'm a lifelong sufferer of constipation but these don't cause me any problems.
