I suffered from constipation for years It wasn’t until I became an adult that I started to question why I was having so many problems with my bowels. I was never one to eat many vegetables though did eat the occassional piece of fruit. My mum use to try in vain to get me to eat healthy but I just didn’t like the taste. As a teenager I abused laxatives to help with my condition and the lack of fibre in my diet and use of laxative tablets caused a lot of health problems.
