I love fruit of all kind, especially oranges, grapefruit, lemons, pears, peaches.
However, after colon removal and J-pouch 19 years ago, I haven't been able to eat any. Fruit causes very loose, frequent, burning stools.
Does anyone know of a supplement (like lactose pills for milk) or other ways to allow me to eat fruit without the dire consequences?
Maybe someone knows of something....I'm hoping!
Thanks,
DorisR

I heard on here milk helps with spicy foods, so that might help. But honestly, maybe your not meant to eat citrus foods. I know I cannot have raisain bran because it hurts me with gas, some things are just meant to be hon. Try milk and if that does not help, I would let it go.
Citrus burned on the way out so I took a dose of antacid like Maalox when eating it. Peaches, pears and other fruit didn't bother me at all.
