Aside of waking up and emptying, I always seem to have a stomach ache. Whether stool is hard or lumpy of liquid. I’ve stayed away from hot ginger tea because I don’t want to increase flow. Any thoughts. Cold ginger tea? Pesto?
Thanks

Licorice root can help with indigestion. They have kinds without sugar, even! Tasty!

Liquid? Capsules? Amazon has everything. Of course there is good all fashion black licorice candy

Sure does! I got the Zot Organic Licorice Original Gluten Free Sugar Free. They are tiny little lozenges, and they're great! You can also get them with sugar and wheat if you think those things are OK for you. I try to stay away from sugar unless it's unprocessed (like honey, etc.) and I bloat up if I have wheat. But you might not have those issues!

Peppermint oil supplements help some. Worked for me for a while until it was clear it was chronic pouchitis.
