I have a problem. I went vegan about 8-9 months ago, and I’ve had a couple of diarrhea episodes in the last 4-5 months, and lately I have more frequent bowel movements (twice or three times a day). Also, the stools are softer, kinda like diarrhea but not so bad. I know it’s gross to talk about this, but I’m worried because I used to have constipation problems. Should I be worried or is this normal?
i am eating a lot more fruit than i used too because i am drinking fruit smoothies and fruit salads for breakfast. before i went vegan i didn’t eat any fruit at all. also i started eating vegetables i didn’t use too when i ate meat, like eggplant, cucumber, pumpkin, etc. i eat a lot of potato, carrot, and sweet-potato. i drink a lot of soy milk and juice, and cereal, and oatmeals, also i am taking nutritional yeast. before i went vegan i had a cup of tea for breakfast i went to work, now i really focus on breakfast.
thanks for the reply!!! i feel a lot better now, i though i was sick or something. i really worry when i notice changes in my body, i’m a bit of a hypocondriac.
If you were reading the topic carefully instead of just thinking how to promote you site, you would notice that vikkibalseiro does not have a problem with constipation. You are banned btw.
