Aloe juice is my best friend. When I am stopped it helps with movement, and if I am having diarrhea it soothes the cramping. I drink it with juice almost everyday. I personally drink 2 oz of concentrated aloe juice when I am regular, up to 4 oz when I am constipated, and 1-2 when I have the runs. Everyone needs different amounts and it takes a little experimentation to find the perfect amount, but I feel better when I have my trusted aloe juice.

Visit a dietician to obtain a meal plan, it can be overwhelming to find that you cannot consume certain food groups and you may struggle to adapt. Finding what foods will work for you and learning how to create new exciting recipes will help you immensely.
I would have benefited from this myself had I not tried to go it alone and several times found myself slipping back into old habits because I had run out of ideas of what to eat.
