I am 94 yrs old. I suffer from constipation regularly. I am often constipated in spit f the fact that I take in a more than average amount of fresh fruits and vegetables, and water. IGas is a problem, too. When the signs say I m going to have a BM very soon, the BM turns out to be gas. My sister (6 yrs younger than me) has a problem with diverticulitis. Is that somethi g to consider? Thank you for any helpful info. BM, Durham, NC+
