Great product
Great producthandy
effectiveGood Product
My doctor recommended this product, it takes a couple days to work but is gentle and effective.keeps me movin'!
This product was recommended for me by my GYN, my GP, and my gastroenterologist. It's a very benign substance which simply forces water into the intestines to make it easier and more productive to 'go.' I've been using it for over a year and I'm happy with it. I never have to 'run' to the bathroom; I can just feel that, OK, it's time to go but it can wait til a convenient time. Great stuff!
