Has anyone used Dr. Schulze's intestinal 1 herbal capsules for constipation? This is my newest symptom and has been going on for quite awhile now. I had the colonoscopy and CAT abdominal CAT scan to rule everything out and am left with the same answers of "everything normal". Another Lyme patient I know uses this and loves it, was hoping to get any more feedback.

Already eat lots of natural fiber, drink lots of liquids, and have tried a couple other supplements.

Make sure you take it with food (preferably a meal) or you will get a major stomach ache.

I've been lucky and not needing this anymore but it's what my Lyme dr. recommends.

You can use Trace Minerals Research "Trace Minerals". 5 to 10 drops 2 or 3 times per day will work.

joah.. It probably works great but it will permanently stain your colon. I used to take something with those ingredients and my GI fussed at me because my colon was stained.

I think it makes it harder to dx cancer or something. He said I was abusing laxatives. PO'd me!

Dr Schulze's:

Herbal Ingredients: Cura�ao & Cape Aloe Leaf, Senna Leaf & Pod, Cascara Sagrada Aged Bark, Oregon Grape Root, Hawaiian Yellow Ginger Root, Garlic Bulb, Habanero Peppers

i used to take this, not great to take on a regular basis because of the cascara sagrada and senna are habit forming for your colon. but in a case of emergency..it is very helpful.

have you tried to use psyllium or salt water?
