A member asked:
Exactly how much cheese (or babybels) do i need to eat to become constipated?

This varies among individuals. It's not just eating cheese but lack of adequate daily fluid& fiber intake as well as lack of exercise that contributes to chronic constipation.

Not a linear relation between amount of cheese eaten and onset of constipation, it has to do with individual sensitivity as well.
