Constipation remedies that fall in the natural category include fiber rich foods. The most widely known and used fiber foods include anything that is whole grain, brussel sprouts, asparagus, cabbage, cauliflowers, broccoli, prunes, plums, papayas, olives, mangoes, grapes, tomatoes and potatoes.

Laxatives on the other hand are made from artificial ingredients that force the constipated person to defecate. These are the most notorious type of constipation cures since studies have shown overusing them can lead to chronic diarrhea or worse, it will cease to work at all. Laxatives are over the counter drugs but it is highly recommended that you seek a doctor’s advice before using them.

Probiotics are live microorganisms that include species like lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacterium animalis. When consumed, they provide constipation relief by improving the overall environment of the intestines.

I needed to find a better way to help myself, because even with thyroid medicine, which helped some of my other problems, it could not help my one big problem, and that was the severe constipation. (Because of all may years of abuse) One evening, looking on the internet to find some help, I came across PoopDoc and thought I have tried everything else what the heck.

I talked to a really knowledgeable man named Scott. I was a bit afraid to discuss this problem, but he was very supportive and told me about this product and how it could help. Well all I can say is it works, it does not cause the cramping that other products produce, and for the first time I feel I have found someone that not only has a great product, but a person that has given me some really good advice to promote some really good habits for better colon health. Scott thanks for the help and for the great product.

She went to her family doctor, he gave her prescriptions that would make the Barium move through her Colon. That didn’t work. I as a mother watching my child suffer was heart sick, I didn’t know what could be done. I was reading articles on the web and came across PoopDoc by accident. I ordered it, and it’s been a God send. The second day it started cleaning her out, all the toxic poison that was in her. Before she would not even get out of bed. Never felt good. Headaches-No Concentration-Depression. She has done more in one day than the last 2 months after PoopDoc moved her bowels.

This effects the whole family when someone is suffering the way my daughter did. This is a mother’s testimonial. I would recommend PoopDoc for anyone that has lost hope. There are no side effects. I feel it saved her life and for that I Thank You.

Going to the bathroom is a struggle for me which is why I am excited about this constipation therapy. After years of trying laxatives that say they are going to get rid of my constipation, I still have tried one that actually does so. A friend recommended Hyfiber, which is a medical food product by Medtrition and after just a week of trying it I am feeling so much better. At my advanced age constipation is so hard to get rid of but I am feeling great thanks to this product. It has 11 grams of soluble fiber and I love it because all I have to do is mix it in with my soft foods and drinks. I love the hint of citrus in it and it is ideal for my dietary needs. I recommend this to everyone!

Aloe Vera Combats Constipation In Different Ways

// June 11th, 2010 // No Comments » // Health, Medical

If a person is afflicted with hypotonic constipation, licensed herbalists may prescribe the outer leaf of the aloe vera plant; the one containing the anthraquinone glycosides. When made into a “whole leaf” aloe vera juice or gel, it will ease constipation because of its laxative effect and by stimulating the colon and bowels to do their job.

If however, a person is afflicted with hypertonic constipation, a concoction of aloe vera juice or gel made from the inner leaf will do the trick. This part of the aloe vera plant eases constipation by providing more bulk to your stools.

For maximum constipation relief, licensed herbalists suggest that you take the aloe vera concoction on an empty stomach or before any meal.

Painful Symptoms of Severe Constipation

// May 10th, 2010 // No Comments » // Health, Medical

Hemorrhoids can arise out of a mild case of constipation, they are considered signs of a severe or chronic case as well. Blood in the stool may also arise due to a fissure. A fissure is caused when someone is trying to pass a particularly hard or dry stool, and it tears the anus tissue. This will expose nerve endings and is one of the more painful symptoms of severe constipation. Again, while fissures have been caused by mild cases of constipation, they are more likely the product of chronic or severe constipation.

Other severe constipation symptoms may include: nausea, loss of appetite, and a general loss of ambition and energy. But no matter the symptoms, most cases of severe constipation can be alleviated with proper diet, exercise, and cleaning out the bowels every so often.
