Seriously, a couple of things I really like about metamucil is how soft it is. It is like a salve. If you mix it with water it is so soft. So when you use it, it is like putting salve on your insides. As well, by drinking green tea right after taking it, the extra water is good for you and it acts like a sort of time release for the tea which keeps the anti inflammatory chemicals working.

Also, it can buffer harsh medicenes like pain killers really well. There are two types of fiber, water soluable, lie rice, and psyllium seed (metamucil) and none water soluable (wheat) which is harsh on your insides.

Take it twice a day and your IB symtoms will disappear, I will bet.

People don't take as good of care of their digestive system as they should.

<<<t boggles my mind that you don't think access to medical care is important.>>>>

I do respect your opinion epicure, but you're right I do not think access to medical care is of any importance to young healthy people. This is not a practice run; we have but one life and we best live it to the fullest. Some people may find what the want in city parks, but many want more. They want to explore and take their kids on adventures and may even want to own a pony. We are so far apart on this I don't expect that you might even understand what I'm trying to explain. In its simplest form though it is this; different strokes for different folks. Annnnnd, so I get to my original point; everyone has their own "strokes" and it shouldn't be up to others to dictate what those strokes may be. Individual responsibility. I think people who live in inner cities are missing a lot - but I would absolutely never tell them they should go someplace else.
