My dad used to have problems with his digestion. He was just fat and didn’t take care of himself. But I remember he would munch on dried prunes and swear that the fiber was helping him lose weight. Then I learned that old people love prune juice which I thought was disgusting. Idk im hella discriminating but I’m dreading the day where I post on nostr about the health benefits of dried prunes and whatnot 🤣😭

😂 staying hydrated helps with digestion...the massive amount of sugar brings moisture to the gut and facilitates the digestion more than the tiny amount of fiber in prune juice... Drink water and poop well all the time 🤷♀️
This. Every gram of carbs needs 4 grams of water for digestion. Stay hydrated!
I cut down on fruit for a few weeks and noticed I haven’t been waking up thirsty in the morning lmao
I definitely need less water when eating minimal carbs 💯
It's also why people think low carb diets are magic when they lose 8 lbs in 3 days, but then get disappointed when it doesn't continue like that. It was just water weight, not fat 😅
Yea makes sense. I just wonder how much creatine impacts that too. I definitely need more water because of that.
