This is simple. You should be pooping on a daily basis. If you’re not, you are constipated. Even if you poop daily, if it’s tough to pass and incomplete, then you’re still constipated. This is absolutely bad for your health! But fret not, it can be fixed. Read on…
When you get constipated, waste products, chemicals, and hormones don’t get eliminated properly and are allowed to recirculate back into your body. This is definitely not good. 🙁
Constipation also allows the food to ferment leading to bad bacteria growing inside your digestive tract. This causes inflammation, infections, and toxic buildup all of which can lead to weight gain, fatigue, bloating, abdominal gas and pain, depression, and other chronic health problems.
Many other chronic illnesses can develop throughout the body when you are no longer able to absorb nutrients well and eliminate wastes. This is no way to live! If this is happening to you, get expert support. Book a visit with a naturopathic doctor, like me.
I help people get to the root of their constipation and heal it all the time.
