Hi dave505,

I know psyllium and charcoal can actually make things worse for somebody already constipated, and in a normal case I would of course advise him to stop, but he goes downhill terribly fast if he goes without the charcoal. The weird thing is that he actually started to get much more fecal matter since starting psyllium and charcoal, until four days ago.

I too prefer to rely on enemas for constipation, but in that case absolutly nothing comes out with the enemas since four days.

Of course, his diet is far from ideal, eating plenty of animal proteins, but he is eating plenty of whole grains and vegetables. No constipation-linked foods apart from meat/fish. But he is consuming a huge load of fiber, which could make actually things worse in my opinion (despite at least one gallon of liquids a day).
He is also taking ground flaxseeds and plenty of homemade kefir in order to restore his gut flora. Also bile flow doesn't seem to be the problem here.

1.3 grams of senna is probably not that much, when you know that one capsule of IF1 has 575mg herbs, so I'll tell him to up the dosage significantly and see what happens, hoping for the best.
