Tom, thank you so much for this! I’ve been a vegan for 5 years and never had problems with bowel movements. I’ve been trying to lose a few pounds so recently I increased the amount of salads/green veggies I eat while decreasing starchy foods like bread, potatoes, corn. All of a sudden I’m constipated and couldn’t figure out WHY, but maybe I’m not getting enough insoluble fiber? Off to the store for apples and Metamucil! Wish me luck, lol ;)

Thanks for your comment Mark. I read your article quite a while ago but then when I started writing this post it popped back into my head as perfect source material.
