Occasionally, I would have minor constipation. My personal feeling, and sense, is that
feces cake up on the side of my colon somewhere, and sits there while normal ingestion bypasses it. Then, eventually, just before the release, movements and gasses become extremely stinky. I hardly ever have diarrhea, cramps (except at release), abdominal pain, fever or nausea, or any other IBS symptoms. Naturally, I tend to gain some weight during this buildup.
