[quote=Anonymous]Fruits and veggies with every meal. Avoid BRAT foods (Banana, rice, apple, toast). Magnesium citrate added to juice, epson salt baths, lots of liquids, lots of pears. We too have been to the ER numerous times for horrible GI issues/constipation. Have even had my child admitted for endoscopy that came back fine. We recently had a doctor tell us that my child's constipation is due to mitochondrial dysfunction. We seem to be doing much better now that DC is on a strict diet and taking a "mito cocktail." Another thing to rule out is food intolerance. Gluten and dairy are big offenders and the best way to tell is a trial elimination diet.[/quote]
