Green beans. My next-door neighbor, elderly, IBS-D and diverticulosis — she swears by green beans, discovered they are just about the only food that works on her gut problems. She has a bowl of them for breakfast, keeps her normal. Metamucil didn’t work for her, bananas made matters worse. Ditto avocados.
I wouldn’t want to eat green beans for breakfast, but I guess it beats long visits to the bathroom.
All my senior friends have gut problems. Every last one. I have learned a lot from doing their grocery shopping.
