Dealing With Constipation
Constipation is a troublesome problem that will affect most adults at sometime or another. It can range in severity from mild discomfort to causing more severe pain and even nausea. Considering that the average person has 13.5 pounds of food, water and oxygen passing through their system each day, constipation can also be a frustrating cause of difficult weight loss. What causes it? Some potential causes include: Indigestion (not breaking
down foods in stomach)
Dysbiosis (incorrect balance
of normal bacteria in gut)
Decreased movement (lack
of exercise, sitting all day)
Lack of liquid (dehydrated)
Not enough bulk in stool
(minimal fiber in diet)
Stress (too much sympathetic
activity, not enough parasympathetic activity)
Laxative abuse (too much
laxative use in the past)
GI disorder (paralyzed bowel,
telescoping bowel, etc)
Fortunately, the potential treatments for constipation are as many and varied as the causes. Some potential treatment options include:
- Increased water intake (80-100
oz water per day or as directed by your physician) Increased MCT oil intake
(measure out 2 Tbs oil per shake or as directed by your physician)
- Ground Flaxseed (add 1 Tbs
ground flaxseed to each shake and/or to salads/food)
- Magnesium supplementation
(Tri-Mag: 6-8 capsules per day or as directed by your physician)
- Movement (implement an exercise
program or receive abdominal/full body massage)
- Stress management (breathing
techniques, soothing Epsom salt bath, etc)
- Other supplements (Digestive
enzymes, Probiotics, others - as directed by your physician)
- Smooth move tea (3 cups
per day or as directed by your physician)
The doctors and staff at your local Slimxpress clinic will be happy to discuss with you the best treatment plan for constipation problems as part of your weight loss plan.
