quote:What's not helpful is a bunch of posts that basically say, "it's whatever works best for you." Many people who come on the board have no idea what will work best for them, and the reason they come on to the Board is to try and find out what is working for others. That is why they come on the board - to hear opinions and advice from others. You have basically said that my opinion sucks, or is "wrong." Maybe it is, but I would rather have an opinion to share than say "it is whatever works best for you." I don't think posts that say that are helpful.
Thank you for that - nothing drives me crazier than when I ask a question and it is met by responses directing me to "figure out what works best for you." That's obvious and I don't need to be told that. I think anyone in search of information, for the most part, is smart enough to know that they aren't obligated to follow the advice given. They're just in search of data/evidence to process as they see fit. I've found your contributions to this thread rather enlightening so I don't know why some are so intent upon shutting you up.
With that out of the way, is there any anecdotal evidence here regarding the diet's impact upon pouch output. In theory, if bacterial overgrowth is reduced, would that not reduce volume?
