When your body is healthy, waste travels through the digestive tract on a regular cycle taking six to twenty four hours to pass through. Sometimes constipation has no signs other than lack of bowel movement. Normal bowel movements in a healthy person averages from one to three movements per day.
Constipation is the #1 gastrointestinal disorder in the United States. Our Western diet is high in fats and low in fiber and fluids. When there is low consumption of fiber and fluids, the contracting action of the large intestine is not stimulated and therefore waste is not propelled through the intestinal tract.
Extreme stress or suppressed emotions are important factors that can relate to constipation.
Chronic use of laxatives make the intestinal muscles weak and begin not to work on their own. If you have blood in stool, intense abdominal pain, or fissures in rectal lining, make an appt with your doctor to check for any pathology.
Symptoms :Hard to pass stools, not going to bathroom for days, loss of appetite, bloating of the stomach and intestinal area as well as some flatulence and nausea.
Causes: poor diet, stress, lack of physical exercise, intestinal parasites, colitus, hypothyroid, magnesium deficiency and well as liver issues.
A stool specimen by your doctor would help to rule out any pathology.
Foods to avoid: saturated fat, dairy products, fried and processed foods. refined flours and chocolates
Recommendations: Digestive Enzyme with each meal to break down fats, protein and carbohydrates. Milk Thistle will help with liver to improve bile flow. Senna is a helpful natural laxative. Dandelion root improves constipation
My favorite is a product called Aloe Lax, its not aloe vera but aloe ferrum. Take 3-4 capsules before bedtime and watch the miracle happen.
