Smoothe Move Tea For Constipation?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried the smoothe move tea post op for Constipation? I used it before many times but am concerned about irritating my sleeve. I'm 3 weeks post op and still on liquids. The tea is caffeine free herbal stuff.

Thanks!

I was wondering about this too, I bought some yesterday and tried it today, my tummy feels fine, but the box says it takes 6 hours to work, so, we shall see :)

where do you buy this at? Is it something that you drink everyday or is it only when you're constipated?

I got mine from Meijer's and it says for occasional Constipation. I sure hope it works. I'm having a hard time getting in extra veggies.

I got a good price for it off Amazon.com. it is pretty potent stuff so I would just use it as needed.

I used Smooth Move tea prior to surgery and it upset my stomach but all laxatives do so I don't take them. I drink Water like it's going out of style instead.

It's made with natural senna tea, a stimulant laxative vs. osmotic. It's ok on occasion but I found my sleeve and my system prefers osmotic which just helps get more Water into your stool. Stimulant can become addictive for some and not good for long term, cause painful cramping. I prefer stool softeners, magnesium citrate, lots of Vitamin C and if desperate Fleet enema always does the trick.

I had a lot of problems with Constipation. I could never find the Smooth Move tea, but I tried Miralax and several other things. When it was so bad I was nauseous I tried a stool softener with laxative. It took the whole 12 hours to work but it was the best feeling ever LOL! I took it a few times as needed but now I drink diet cran-grape (Oceanspray, 5 cals) every day and it seems to be working.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
