    Hi Marla,

    I’ve been struggling with severe constipation for some time now, I’ve tried eating more fruit, drinking more water and taking laxatives but nothing is working.

    Would really appreciate your assistance please.

    I’ve noticed that I don’t have the urge to empty by bowels anymore.

    I have less than 3 bowel movements a week.

    Hello,

    I highly advise against laxatives unless absolutely necessary. T restimulate the bowels you can try the following (check with your doctor first):

    1. Consume 2 tbs ground flax seeds and psyllium husk every dingle day (take as supplement, add to smoothie, etc)
    2. Drink MINIMUM 10 glasses of water daily – room temp or warm, no ice
    3. Do 1/2 cup aloe leaf daily
    4. Take 100 billion cfu probiotics daily(I like genetra hmf multi strain 100)
    5. do Transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation daily the guide is under resources tab)
    6. Drink 2 cups hot slippery elm or mashmallow root tea daily on empty stomach at night before bed (i like traditional medicinals throat coat with slippery elm tea)
    7. avoid raw veggies, cook everything

    Do this consistently for minimum 4 weeks and report back 🙂
