Lesson I have learned : Water and Fiber go hand and hand!
You have heard of love and marriage and how you cant have one without the other, well I tell you this applies to fiber. When eating fiber it is most imperative that you consume adequate amounts of water in order for the fiber to pass successfully through your digestive tract. Failure to drink enough water while consuming fiber can lead to a blockage or impassable bowel or constipation. The best treatment for this is truly prevention. Drink lots of water every day to avoid this most uncomfortable problem, along with eating plenty of fruits, vegetables and exercising. Remember to increase your water intake as you increase your fiber intake. Consult a doctor if you are having any problems they can provide emergency relief if you are blocked, but the best method is to simply drink enough water so as not to cause the problem.
