I have another question about a laxative. Has anyone every used Fibercon? I had been using the generic form and worked great but I wasn't sure if it was safe so I stopped. The ingredient in it is Calcium Polycarbophil. It says it's a safe natural laxative but I'm not sure about that ingredient.

Re: Fibercon laxative
Why are you using a laxative?
Not really recommended ... as you're teaching your body not to "go" on its own.J.

Re: Fibercon laxative
I'm not eating enough fiber or veggies. My body does not seem to "go" very well with a high protein diet.Comment

Re: Fibercon laxative
Atkins is a high fat diet, not high protein. Since you're on Induction, are approximately 65% of your calories coming from fat?with a high protein diet."Get action. Seize the moment. Man was never intended to become an oyster."

Re: Fibercon laxative
I guess I'm still going by the old Atkins book, I thought Atkins was a high fat, high protein diet. I'm trying not to have too high fats but definitely am enjoying them. I do have high cholesterol. I guess I'm going to have to get his newer book. It doesn't seem right to enjoy fats when I'm so used to lowfat everything! I can actually enjoy vegetables with real butter on them? Doesn't seem right!!Comment
