  • If you’re constipated and looking for a way to treat constipation naturally at home, you first need to understand the possible underlying constipation causes.
    When trying to fix constipation, IBS, or difficulty having a bowel movement, people try all kinds of constipation remedies, possibly a constipation diet, or try to eat or avoid a specific food for constipation. Most of these options leave people with no natural constipation relief. This is because there is more than one cause for chronic constipation. Unless you learn to figure out the cause your your chronic constipation, it can be very difficult to create any type of lasting constipation improvement. It's time to stop asking Why am I so constipated, and start pooping like a champion.

      I have tried the usual methods to relive constipation such as eating different types of fiber, eating prunes, drinking sufficient amounts of water, drinking coffee and herbal teas, exercise, but to no avail. Until I read an article by this lady online who had the same problem and she mentioned that we basically lacked 2 minerals, which are Magnesium and vitamin C. You have to take both of them together. I take 2 tablets of Magnesium, 500 Mg. each with 2 tablets of vitamin C, 1000Mg. each, and the magic of relief from constipation starts to happen. You start feeling the urge to go after a few hours and then eventually relieve yourself. It really works.

What else would you suggest with this specif problem? X

I am now diabetic with A1c of 6.5, and my sugar stays good when bowels move. Dr prescribed me low dose erythromycin at night as a prokinetic which is helping me a bit with constipation. But my bloating and belching still continues. Now I think maybe I have low HCL. Does erythromycin increase acidity like beta one HCL? I want to try betain HCL and see how that goes. What is your non medical opinion? Thank you!

I read hiking gear articles on what to wear. I am warm. I also got a fur scarf from a thrift shop. It's so warm and soft. Start walking and you will be warm. Now you have a year round activity that's free and accessible any where any time and you see animals, get fresh air and sun. Sleep better stay lean, strengthen your bones, so many benefits! It's fun too! I would go exploring. I drive around keep my eyes open for stands of trees and interesting looking places to explore. It's an adventure! I found nature preserves, cemeteries, woods, trails, abandoned buildings, abandoned insane asylum! I see deer all the time. I see raccoons, birds, squirrels, poor abandoned cats- I feed, make friends. In the city- I found the insane asylum and the nature preserve in the middle of stores and apartments. It's small but secluded enough to have lots of deer. Look up trails near me on Google. Look up cemeteries near me- fascinating places, bottle dumps, I found old antique bottles, an antique Wicker Baby Carriage, mica rocks that sparkle, really cool pieces of bark and wood, I use for decor. It's so fun. In summer I wear hiking sandals - chaos. I've had 4 years and still 👍 great. Or ride bike around a pretty town, that's fun too but you need weight bearing exercise for strengthening your bones
