For constipation suffers! relief found!

For anyone who suffers from chronic constipation I think I found the answer instead of resorting to daily dose of laxative..Hershey's sugar free dark chocolate candy!! on back of bag has warning may experience laxative effect..yay it does!(its the sucralose and maltitol) dont cause too bad of cramping/gas  as stimulate laxative does,once you go, the cramps stop,and its all over quickly..not be graphic,lol,the serving is 5 pieces but 2-3 pieces does the trick to within few hours,and it taste good! I do it twice a week.Hope this helps anyone who suffers from chronic constipation..let me know if this works for anyone else!

WoW! Thanks.I sure hope I can find some of this candy.
Been having trouble since my bypass,and it got worse when an ace inhibitor was added.Doc says it should not effect me like this,but it may interact with another medication.
Between suppositories and stool softeners,I have been going crazy.
Definitely going to give this a try.

OMG!  I bought some too and it did the same thing.  Phew!  I'm glad I'm not the only one.  It will really do the trick too.
