Two tablespoons of mineral oil every night before bed. Old school but works! Harmlessly lubes the digestive tract to great effect!😀

If stopped up, it makes more sense to LUBE THE TUBE than to add more water-absorbing fiber. One can use MCT oil or just let a pat of butter dissolve in the mouth. Two if really clogged. Speaking from when I took fiber supplements “because it is good for you”. Now? I just don’t get clogged up on a high meat, no fruit or veggie diet.

Mom used to feed us girls Cod Liver Oil! I have NO idea why and she says she, ‘doesn’t remember.’

The DOG loved licking the spoon while Sis and I were writhing and gagging on the floor, LOL!

On the Bright Side, I’m still very regular and have never gotten Scurvy! ;)
