Hello ... I was just wondering if you can use Senna (Herbal tablets for Your bowels) or do you have to have the CD stuff...
Can you use Senna On CD Diet...

Cambridge don't do a laxative. They do a laxative preventer, but you wouldn't use that if you had a problem.
You can use senna if you are constipated. Don't use it regularly though. Better to use a preventer daily ie Fibre 89, fibresure or psyllium husks. They are safe are safe to use regularly

Yes, you can take the Fibre89, fibresure or PH with your shakes each day throughout the diet to prevent constipation. They wont effect the diet
Senna can only be used occassionally (if you have constipation)
Never use the Fibre89 etc if constipated as it will make it worse. Just use them to prevent it happening in the first place.
The fibre89 and fibresure don't taste of anything. You can either put it in your water, or add a teaspoon to a couple of your shakes each day
Makes the whole diet so much easier without the dreaded marbles IYKWIM

Are you positive about this, because it should be the other way around. Ducolax is much stronger and not recommended on Cambridge. Senna is okay though

They may have been referring to pure senna seeds which are quite harsh as opposed to sennokot tabs which are quite mild.
As KD has said Fibre 89 is a preventative, sennokot is a cure, always best to prevent.
Should constipation occur though treat from both ends ie sennokot and glycerine suppository it makes things sooooooo much easier
