I’m a freak. When friends acquaintances around me, typically women, complain about constipation or having problems receiving mother nature’s call, my default response is always, “Just drink water,” as natural as if I’m saying, “Duh!!” I don’t understand why it’s so hard for many people to drink water. I used to travel a lot. I was a world traveller before my stroke. Suppose you travel, too, you know one of the most pain in the arse when travelling is the customs. Either you forget to divide your skincare products into small bottles, put them into clear plastic bags, or forget to drink that bottle of water you’d just purchased. When crossing customs, whatever fluids they confiscate from my belongings, rather than throw them out. I’d give them a free talent show and down them all within seconds down my throat, leaving my audience dumbfounded. I consider myself lucky to LOVE drinking water since little. I know water is supposed to be tasteless, but for some magical reason, I find it sweet, refreshing, and thirst-quenching. Maybe there has been something wrong with my neuro system this whole time, after all. It’s always funny whenever I see a doctor when something goes wrong with my body; doctors always have a default question: “Are you drinking enough fluids?”
“Oh, yes! Trust me, at least 4 litres, minimum.”
“Oh, that’s too much. You could get water intoxication.”
Before my stroke, I never had problems with digestion or my GI tract. My body‘s daily routine was like a task set on an alarm clock; I go every day at the same time. After a full-on breakfast, I literally “unload a ton of shit” and walk out all refreshed, as if I’d just had the most incredible orgasm. Therefore, I never understood why people have trouble finishing that one little glass of water, which I see as a teeny sip. However, life is a joke, and all good things must come to an end. Due to immobility after my stroke, I start developing trouble answering mother nature’s call. As if the world has abandoned me, living with disabilities isn’t challenging enough; even mother nature is taking away my 20-minute heavenly pleasure me-time of the day. It’s devastating. Back in Canada, I used to eat a lot of yogurts, so my gut health had always been optimistic. News flash, yet another one of our infamous food scandals just broke out; the majority of dairy products available on the market in Taiwan are toxic. Surprise, not surprised.
I guess it just means no yogurt for me. I’ve been relying on supplements like probiotics for the past few months. I’ve long been an Executive VVIP member of Suntory; call me vain, but my membership status makes me feel somewhat superior. So, despite the many other probiotic supplement options, I chose Suntory when they came out with its TADAS probiotics with bifidobacteria as its main probiotic ingredient. At first, the product worked miracles, but after consuming it consecutively for a couple of months, the probiotic lost its magic and stopped working. So I up my doses. Currently, I need five packs a day, which doesn’t make sense to my ROI anymore.

Luckily, I’ve had the chance to connect with a new product, MDMMD‘s Enzyme/ Probiotic Plum, which is much more affordable than Suntory‘s TADAS probiotics at around $1000NT/bag. MDMMD‘s Enzyme Plum comes in packs of 28 pieces; each bag is priced at around $300NT.
I consider Senna one of the safer laxatives. However, since most laxatives here in Taiwan contain Senna, there’s a stigma attached to Senna as an ingredient when people here look for laxatives due to its dependency effect. People are terrified of products containing Senna in Taiwan. This product has been raved about and has received high ratings simply because it does not include “Senna” as an ingredient. Take a look at the ingredient list:

• • • MDMMD Enzyme/ Probiotic Plums Ingredient List:

Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium breve, Lactobacillus acidophilus, etc. The list goes on. Most of them look like probiotics beneficial to gut health.

Needless to say, you all know I love sour and bitter-tasting food. I’m talking about the eye-squinting level of tart taste that makes you seize up. So naturally, preserved and pickled plums and prunes are my favourite traditional Taiwanese snacks. I have no problem tasting MDMMD‘s enzyme plums for the first time. For me, it’s a pleasant treat. Thanks to the greenish powder coating, which I assume is all the probiotics and enzyme ingredients, these plums are less sweeter than the usual Taiwanese traditional preserved plums and prunes; another plus.

• • • MDMMD Enzyme/ Probiotics Plums – The Open Box Tasting Effect &  Result:
    • The first day:
    • To get an accurate result and to be safe, I stopped all my other probiotics and started with one plum before breakfast. I started feeling some movement in my abdomen even without water before starting breakfast, but it was the painless, good kind of growling. However, the actual call didn’t happen until after finishing my breakfast and 3 litres of water (didn’t I say I drink A LOT of fluids?). About 5 hours after eating my first enzyme plum, I finally went. The result was, however, disappointing—one drop of loose stool, then “Basta.” How sad.
      I believe in the quote “Everybody deserves a second chance,” even when I didn’t. I even believe in a third or fourth chance. So, the next day, I up one plum before breakfast. A full-on breakfast, 3 litres of water, and six hours later, the results remain the same.
    • Day 3:

On day 3, I took three plums. It took me 8 hours to produce the same pathetic results this time.
Although I have no problem finishing the whole bag as my everyday snack as I find them yummy, the packaging clearly states, “Consuming more isn’t beneficial.” So, it’s time I give my verdict:

• • • Fashion Ecstasy MDMMD Enzyme/ Probiotic Plums Open Box Review in A Nutshell:

MDMMD Enzyme/ Probiotic Plums are yummy and do not contain ingredients that usual laxatives do like Senna. However, they give you loose stool, which is not a good sign. I wouldn’t recommend this product. Like I always tell people, if you have trouble answering mother nature’s call, drink more water! Cheers!
