One of the bulk expanders such as Metamucil can be used if necessary, or you can use a tap water enema every three days if you must, but try to get off that as soon as possible. Gas formation comes from many causes, including intolerance to milk. You can check that out by eliminating milk and milk products for a while. And, how do you eat cereals without milk you can eat them dry if you need to. The small shredded wheat biscuits dry are not bad.

For older people, too many sweets sometimes overload the system's ability to absorb sugars and lead to symptoms similar to spastic colon with gas. If you used coffee or tea in any amount I would suggest stopping them. Day's Work People To People By Kathleen Powell SOLVE Needs Volunteer Help The need is great and the number of volunteers woefully small. A call for help has consequently been issued by SOLVE (Save Our Lives Volunteers Every Way). "We are not involved in educational or political pro-life, but simply in giving referral help to pregnant women who have no one else to turn to," says the vice president, Mrs.

J. W. Peeples, the church pastor, said the Thrush's show fea The colon needs to have enough bulk in the Food residue to contract against. When the bulk is adequate the colon contracts regularly in a rhythmic fashion and does not go into spasm. One of the best sources is cereal fiber or bran.

I would recommend that you eat a bowl of cereal every morning, one of the whole wheat or bran cereals. Also drink two glasses of liquid, even if it is just warm water, after breakfast. You can use prunes too if you want, but don't neglect the fiber you need. Also switch to whole wheat breads and use no white flour products. You can also use some leafy or bulky vegetables, salads are the best here.

You may still have gas and symptoms for three weeks on this diet. But, if you stick out the three weeks your colon will have made Is All In A evidence of respect and admiration for the ability of his mentor.

They say you have to learn to live with It, but that is awful hard living. One doctor gave me Librax that helped some to stop some of the gas which I had so badly. I have some bleeding each morning and that worries me. When I get up in the morning I hurt across my back above my waistline. The doctors say, "Well, be thankful it leaves you during the day." My X-rays show only spastic colon.

I was operated on in 1973 for hemorrhoids. Could this bleeding come from that? DEAR READER Most people with spastic colon problems can help themselves by changing their diet and living pattern. A common cause of these difficulties is not enough bulk in the diet. The problem is then made worse by taking laxatives or enemas.

At a recent show for the Lehigh Acres Travel Club, they performed for 700 people, but Beebe also likes to dress up as a clown and entertain at children's shows and birthday parties. He has been magic-minded since he was 10 years old, he says. First coached by a magician, Doug Knurek, who took him to international magician's conventions, he has lately been under the training of Bud Tracy who, under the stage name of Bud Raymond performed throughout the United States and Europe before retiring to Lehigh Acres. "He works with us backstage and we go to his house three times a week for practice," Beebe says with clear.
