| Does eating prunes will make your poop thin? I have thin poops for three days now, and it happened when I started eating prunes, is that normal? |

| yes, it's normal. As a visiting nurse we used to suggest eating prunes or mixing bran and prune juice to our patients who were having a problem with constipation.

| *sigh of relief* I was a bit worried because my dad died because of colon cancer and I've had read lots of articles that thin stool is a symptom of colon cancer... |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I'm sorry about your dad and understand why you would worry! Eating prunes and a diet in high fiber along along with other dietary considerations might just keep you from developing not just colon cancer but other cancers as well.

| Yes, and raisins will too. Eat them in moderation. |
