Chronic Constipation - Get the Help You Need!

Chronic constipation has more recently called IBS with constipation.

It is directly related to our poor diets, lack of proper exercise, insufficient fiber, highly mucus-forming foods, stress, high protein diets, and improper food-combining. It can also be genetic.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome has exploded worldwide. Too many people suffer from this condition and don't really understand why. There are however, various and numerous causes of 'irregularity'.

Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, famous surgeon and physician and the father of Kellogg's Corn Flakes, believed that the bowel could be the origin of most health problems, hence his creation of a bran cereal to aid in colon function. He maintained that 90% of disease is due to improper functioning of the colon.

After performing over 20,000 colon surgeries, Dr. Kellogg exclaimed that in his lifetime, he had never, ever seen one healthy colon. Common sense tells us that if we retain the contents of our colon the result will be disease of the body, which may originate in the colon. Since newly formed cancer cells escape destruction by the immune system due to the effects of auto-intoxication, we are literally poisoning ourselves into illness when bowel evacuation is deficient.

(But I do encourage you to read this page first:o)

I have suffered from ongoing constipation most all my life. Although I regularly eat foods that are relatively low in calorie which include a lot of fruit and vegetables AND I also drink a lot of water, I still suffer from IBS!

However, for many people just like me, there are days when 'candy is dandy' and that we skip over eating foods that we know we need to have in our daily diets. Sometimes it is a matter of convenience, but most of the time it’s from our working schedules.



You too, may have suffered from 'irregularity' all your life. Although I am no doctor, I know it's not good for us. If we don't eliminate what we take in, then surely things must not be going well for us internally. This fascinated me and led me to experiment using different methods to achieve a good end result. If you're reading this, then you are probably looking for good results too!

Feeling constipated is one of the most uncomfortable feelings you can have! It's no party! It just makes you feel yucky and bloated. Clothes don't fit well. We just don't feel well. That toxic feeling overwhelms us.

Your intestines are home to billions of bacteria. These friendly bacteria are your first line of immune defense. They aid digestion and absorption of nutrients from your foods, help produce B vitamins, and help control cholesterol levels. If you have chronic constipation, you need to take an active role in assuring you have plenty of the friendly bacteria in your intestines to protect you. You should replenish and stabilize your body's supply of friendly bacteria with proper diet and probiotics regularly.

To promote the friendly bacteria, your diet should be rich in fiber foods, yogurt, and probiotics. It is especially nerve racking when you know of all the medical problems constipation can cause. If you have constipation, you may be setting yourself up for a variety of problems which may also result in medical disorders or diseases.

Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that a person should have a bowel movement after each meal! Imagine that! The fact is, that I don’t know anyone whose system is like that.

'Once a day' is the staple of what we are taught to believe is normal, especially in the U.S. But it’s not 'normal' and I sought natural ways to combat this disorder.

There are a whole lot of things you can do to help chronic constipation though that are inexpensive, yet very effective.
