Reply to "J-Pouch daily maintenance"

Thanks for sharing!  I use psyllium, too and just discovered it after 15 years of watery stools, not always burning but sometimes.  No name, just plain organic psyllium powder.  The non-organic is weird and doesn't work for me, which is why I specify organic, and it also has to be powder.

I looked up Banatrol and that would be a no for me because it has dairy.  I take visbiome occasionally, but I wonder about its effectiveness because of the dairy.  I eat lots of coconut yogurt and other fermented foods, though there have been no studies on them like there have vwwn on visbiome, regarding pouchitis. 

Another soluble fiber that helps is oats.  Sometimes I like to mix in some chia seeds because they're high in Omega 3 and they are also soluble fiber, like the psyllium & oats.  They're all pretty soothing to my guts.  And then if there is inflammation, aloe juice or gel is also really helpful, though it can also be a laxative.  I'd say take it on an empty stomach!
