I am drinking whey protein. I take a multivitamin everyday. I am also taking glucosamine with msm, ginkgo biloba with vinpocetine, and fish oil. I try to eat as healthy as possible while I’m at it.

For the past couple of years I’ve not had normal firm bowel movements regularly. My doctor recommended taking Metamucil everyday, so I have been doing that twice a day for a month and taking acidophilus and nothing has changed. I eat rather healthy, fairly high fiber diet and I can’t seem to get past this.

I have an enema attachment for the shower and even after a dozen pretty large flushes, I still seem to produce more messy, loose and really smelly stool within 20 minutes of the last flush.

Is there some potent probotics I could take to rebuild my digestive system? Could this be related to some sort of allergy, maybe related to Gluten or something similar? I’m not lactose intolerant, cut out dairy products for over a month and did not notice any change.

I sometimes have diarrhea immediatly after eating out and I almost never have those long, thick, firm tubes of stool I’ve had the first 27 years of my life. Bowel movements are sometimes frequent, gassy and range from loose chunks of material to creamy, it generally expells very quickly.

This has been going on for about 3 years and my doctor seems to not think its a very big deal. I’m willing to make any diet changes necessary to help diagnose this.

I have not experienced any fatigue, dehydration, discomfort or pain during any of this. My abdomen does seem to make a lot more audible noise than I remember when I was younger.

Up until this started, I always has a very stable stomach. I only got diarrhea when I had some illness, like the flu or after drinking heavily and I don’t recall every being constipated. I typically only had 1 bowel movement a day at most.

My diet:
I usually have cereal with soy milk for breakfast, a couple of sandwiches (whole wheat double fiber) for lunch and for dinner a protein, steamed veggies and rice or potatoes. I only drink water, juice and sometimes tea. Go to the gym most evenings and have a muscle milk after and sometimes a bowl of cereal with soy milk. I also take a multivitamin, acidophiles, fish oil, B-complex and Glucosamine (Joint health) with breakfast and 6 Metamucil vitamin therapy pills with breakfast and lunch. Most of the foods I eat are organic, sandwiches are PB&J or Tuna with olive oil mayo. Occasionally, for a midnight snack I’ll have a big glass of chocolate milk (Horizon or Soymilk).

I’m a gay male and rather enjoy anal sex. Been avoiding it far too much because of these problems.

I know this is asking a lot, but is there a multivitam that contains all the essential nutrients at the RDA level, or at the very least, the below nutrients.

I know I can buy individual supplements to catch each of the nutrients listed below, but if there was say 1 or 2 multivitamin tablets that contained all the nutrients, that would be great.

flavonoids
magnesium
calcium
vitamin D
vitamin E
Vitamin A
vitamin C
Glucosamine
Chondroitin
Bromelain
Folate
B6
B12
Niacin
L Carnitine
Resveratrol
SAME
Selenium
Saw Palmetto
L Arginine
L Citrulline
Lutein
DHA
Beta Carotene
Zinc
Copper
Garlic
Cinnamon
Potassium
Selenium
Omega 3

I’m a 17, almost 18, year old female in training for the Navy. I’m wondering if the supplements I am currently on are safe for me right now, and if they are likely to help me. I’m eating 3 good meals a day, drinking plenty of water, and I exercise constantly, as I’m training for Special Operations in the Navy.

1) Garlic Capsules (one with each meal)
2) Flax Seed Oils (one per meal)
3) Fish Oils (one every morning)
4) D-Ribose (6 before working out)
5) Glucosamine Sulfate (one with each meal)
6) Whey protein drinks after working out everyday
7) a female one a day multivitamin, with breakfast

Thanks guys!
By plenty of water, I mean I lug a gallon botle with me around all day and go through 2 or 3 on most days, 4 on serious days
