Constipation can be a very painful problem and one that can lead to further complications if you’re not careful. There are several causes including an over reliance on laxatives, hyperthyroidism or poor reflexes; do you ignore the natural ‘call to action’ when it happens, which can lead to your body not recognizing the trigger?

The American Gastroenterological Association estimates that $750 million is spent every year by Americans on laxatives and as with any other artificial stimulants, your body can become dependent on them, in this case leading to further bowel dysfunction. Stopping their use leads to an extended period of discomfort as your body tries to remember what it is supposed to do!

Hypothyroidism can be a common problem, especially in women over 40. An under active thyroid gland can lead to constipation, which may disguise the real issue.

Try holistic nutrition diets and focus on plenty of fiber rich foods such as vegetables. Organic flax seeds can add additional fiber and should be added in ground form and sprinkled on your food. Processed foods, junk foods and convenience foods are low in total nutritional value and should be avoided. If you find yourself attracted to large amounts of fast foods you may have a sugar addiction, which is a danger to your general wellbeing anyway and must be controlled.

If you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome, finding a natural balance between the good and bad bacteria could be the answer, so do your research and invest in a good-quality probiotic to try and achieve this. Don’t forget that regular exercise is essential so create a suitable workout plan to boost circulation and the function of your inner organs, including your intestines and bowels.

If you must take supplements, consider magnesium and aloe vera at the top of your list. One third of a cup of pure organic aloe vera juice can be added to a cup of pure water, a teaspoon full of powdered acidophilus and two teaspoonfuls of ground flax seed. You should then blend this extraordinary cleansing drink quite thoroughly, and drink it before going to bed – or if during the day time, on a completely empty stomach. This almost always does a truly phenomenal job of thoroughly cleaning out all the recesses of your intestinal tract.

Always heed the call of nature and never wait longer than you have to for a bowel movement. If you do so, water will be removed from the stool and absorbed into your body and this will make it much harder to complete the movement and over time will definitely prevent you from remaining regular.

Integrating these tips into your lifestyle and investigating holistic health solutions will help you to reduce your symptoms of constipation, get your life back on track and cure any number of ailments, many of which you were not even aware of!
