The joke should have ended here......

"So many people in the US are using and abusing laxatives that it’s caused a national shortage."

I would add a warning for all the advice for constipation here… many high fiber (and high FODMAP) foods, mucinex, miralax can actually exacerbate constipation in some people who have IBS-C.

It has the opposite affect for many (and my gastroenterologist has seen many like me).

I stick to a low fodmap diet and that keeps me regular, and has for years. I also steer clear of seed oils, processed foods, wheat, and corn.

Rock Star Ted Nugent visited Manhattan recently where his agent was having a party.

There were some Leftists attending as well, so when they saw Ted Nugent walk in, they decided to put a large poster of Donald Trump on the inside of the bathroom door facing the toilet where it would confront the seated occupant square in the face.

Ted had been traveling, so he really had to go, and the Leftists see him come out smiling instead of gnashing his teeth in anger and Lefties didn’t understand- they figured that he’d be outraged!

“Well didn’t you see Donald Trump in there?” they asked.

“Of course I did,” he replied “And I think it’s the most appropriate place for him.”

“What do you mean?” they asked.

To which the Motor City Madman answered: “I can think of no better way to make a Leftist sh*t faster than seeing an image of Donald Trump.”

“More likely related to increased drug/narcotics usage. And modern marijuana is near narcotic status.”

Opioids are known to be constipat8ng; is there any evidence that cannabinoids are, at any concentration?

I have some Korean kimchee (fermented cabbage and spices) in the morning. Works great.
