Hi All

Forgive me if this a dumb question but are carbonated drinks( cola, lemonade or beers) a no no as far as this damned disease is concerned.

I have read so many conflicting dietary advice pieces, low/high fibre etc I thought it best to ask fellow sufferers.

I am still trying to get my head around being told that I need my sigmoid colon removed  ;o(

Any help /advice will be greatly recieved

    I drink them daily. Am going to remove them slowly from my consumption to see if they are causing issues. They probably are not helping things.
