A member asked:

I can't tolerate fiber or more than a bit of sugar. they cause discomfort and loose stools - sometimes foamy or just liquid for hours the next morning?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Supplements?: Are you talking about fiber supplements? It is common for fiber supplements to cause some cramping and loose stools when first starting on them. Why are you taking the fiber? It may just mean that you need to get your fiber from fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains.
