The watermelon might get you to go more often, but cause cramping, gas, causing the colon to go into spasms and eventually shut down - thus causing more constipation. If you have a slice, make sure it's very small at the END of a safe meal. I wouldn't eat it every day. Save it for a treat once in a while. That should be your rule of thumb for all fresh fruits - eat with caution, in small portions and at the end of a safe meal. -------------------- Formerly HanSolo. IBS, OCD, Bipolar, PTSD times 3.
