May I ask if you had gut/intestine problems before?

Any long term digestion changes? Issues you might point back to this?

Same here. I guess my issue was inadequate stomach acid, not excess...

autarch Feb 26, 2025 View on HN

I have similar issues, though maybe not as extreme. Daily Metamucil send to be the fix.

Yes, same. Probably some bad digestion ongoing.

I'm not a doctor, but I suspect his digestive system won't be happy in a long term.

You might want to get some tests done on your gut microbiome. Fiber is really important for long term health. Inability to digest fiber is often indicative of gut flora issues.

You could change your diet to prevent the reaction in your stomach from happening.

My digestive tract disagrees with you.
