Prunes

[Paula1975]

Just got some prune juice and activa prune yoghurts to see if that would help things moving, now this may sound a silly question, but do I dilute 50/50 as with other juices or drink straight so to speak?

Well I buy the sunsweet prune juice which is high in its own sugars its natural sugar think is sorbitol which canb give you the runs, but I would dilute it to start or just sip a bit over a short time. I havent had a problem taking it but think some have dumped with it. It is thick n gloopy but dont htink i would have drank it diluted with water but try it n see. The yoghurts are nice I have had activa and also Asdas own both are nice, should help with the toilet issues, trial n error just like other things we consume. xx

yeah think amount per day is tha same as pure oj bout 1ooml but would maybe only have half that, n take n hour or so to sip it or longer then hopefully the body can tollerate it . have known some people take it from the start wish i had wouldnt have had the toilet issues i'v had. can make you windy as well xx

I also use the sunsweet prune juice now, and I can drink about 50mls without any problems, and 50mls daily seems to be working quite nicely, and much more natural, than a chemical laxative..

pleased its working for ya, it did wonders for me to. xx

it really is a godsend.. and so more natural than taking a prescription laxative. Bit worried though that I can drink it neat with no ill effects, I almost wish I could find something that would make me dump lol...
