The constipation is probably caused by allergies, rather than a lack of
fiber. Since the paleo-diet avoids many common food allergens, you may
notice an improvement.

Wheat is the number one food allergen in North America. Are you really
allergic to *all* fish, or just certain species? Allergies to cod, trout,
and mackerel, for example, are fairly rare [but cod is gross, in my opinion,
so I can understand why you might avoid it regardless ;-)].
