Members discussed how strict they need to be with their diet, especially around managing digestive issues like morning bowel explosions while taking Cellcept. Several members shared practical strategies, including eating a protein-rich breakfast, keeping lunch substantial, and making dinner lighter or earlier to avoid overnight digestive distress. A recurring theme was the importance of hydration throughout the day, choosing whole foods over processed ones, and timing meals carefully around medication schedules.

Well actually, you should really avoid foods filled with chemicals and preservatives,so packets and tins(read your labels)loads of fruit and vegetables, also proteins mostly chicken , fish, and a small amount of red meat. Not really processed meat.
Protein powder (but also check the ingredients) not too much dairy, yoghurt is healthy. Avoid your junk foods.
I can only go on what I consume.
And of course I still have my one coffee in the mornings.😃
And most importantly hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!

I had gastric bypass surgery once. Then had gallbladder removed. I'm lactose intolerant to boot. I have all kinds of crazy bowel problems. I'm glad you guys are sharing all this cause it helps me not feel so bad about it. The mestinon is giving me monumental gas. I have to watch everything I eat. I've learned a few new things from reading all of your responses. I do drink lots of water. I have to watch the amount I eat. Too much of anything is bad news.
