Please guy's do as I say and some of you might get rid of this problem cause I've gotten better 1: by all means avoid refined wheat flour products this is your real enemy 2: avoid all types of meat go vegan 3: avoid dairy products instead use substitutes like soya milk 4: avoid fast foods strictly 5: try to add clarified butter in every meal possible this helps to soften the tool this helped me 6: try eating wheat flour products I'm Indian so I use to eat roti instead of rice and if you want to have rice have Brown rice it's rich in fibre. 7: drink water double the amount you use to drink before, drink hot water everytime and drink 2 to 4 glasses of hot water slowly in the morning in an empty stomach. 8: avoid fried foods, avoid potatoes. 9: have seasonal fruits increase the amount of fruit intake but avoid banana it's a strict no , peach can do wonders for constipated stool. 10: atleast chew food 25 times and increase if possible cause most of the digestion took place in the mouth itself. 11: have cucumbers alot and water rich fruits like watermelon it'll help in digestion. 12: avoid cabbage as when I used to eat cabbage I would see little spikes on my hard constipated poop which lead to anal fissure. So, I avoided cabbage it's my real enemy. 13:avoid chocolates it'll slow down digestion. 14: even if the problem pertains after all this effort go see a physician ASAP and you should see if the blood in stool is very frequent in large amount than its alarming go see a physician you could die of it if you won't. 15: after the medical prescription follow the things mentioned above as it won't harm you anyway. I Hope each and every one of you gets totally recovered and be healthy as you were before I've been getting this problem again after having cabbage so I am starting again hope I get well soon. Well if you have read my suggestion this far thank you and god bless you 🙏

Eat more figs/prunes/apple also easy digestive veggies , drink 2-3 liter of fluids daily , begin your day with two cup of warm water , increase your spices like cayenne pepper, chili flakes, turmeric, ginger, and milk/fruit juices are good as well , the most important thing reduce your meal size and divide it to more than one meal a day it will help you , don’t take a big meal or OMAD. Increase your good gut bacteria by taken kefir/kimchi/yogurt/Sauerkraut/tempeh/pickled cucumber. Or take it as supplement “probiotics” . Stay away from potato/white bread/banana/white rice. Use less fluid while eating so you can chew your food more by forcing your saliva to make easier for your gut/bowels. Have a good day 👋🏻🌹

My wife was severely constipated when I first met her. half a cup of oatmeal, 2 tablespoons of Chia Seeds, 2 tablespoons of ground Flaxseed, 1 whole pear peeled, sliced and poached in a syrup of a tablespoon of water, a tablespoon of honey, and a quarter teaspoon of cinnammon. Put the chia and flaxseed in with the oatmeal, add 1 cup of water and stir over a low heat until it turns into porridge. add the poached pears in syrup, some sugar if desired, oat milk, 1 tablespoon of chopped hazelnuts, eat daily. After 1 week we saw some improvement and after 3 weeks she was completely regular. It also worked on my dad and my daughter. 9 grams of soluble fibre, and 9 grams of insoluble fibre, a ratio of 1:1 so it doesn't bulk up like the insoluble fibre heavy wholegrains in breads, etc. It gives you a nice soft stool with low to medium bulk. Also works for Haemorrhoids, which I can personally attest to.

Normally I'm very regular with a fairly predictable rhythm (sometimes to the point of diarrhea). But 4 weeks ago after having blood in my urine (from kidney stone issues) I changed my diet, cutting down on sugar and fruit, drinking lemon water and adding more vegetables. The result has been less regularity and light constipation. I'm the kind of person who has a history of indulging in chocolate, often two chocolate bars (sometimes more) on a work day.

Thank you for making this video, it is really motivating me to try something to make my constipation better. I think you mentioned to possibly avoid caffeine. I sometimes have 1 or 2 bottles of kombucha a day (15 ounces each bottle), and there is 68 mg of caffeine in each bottle. My problem is having firmer, lumpy stools, bloating, and feeling like my stomach is full. I have been thinking of taking sennosides to help clear me out, but I’m a little worried it might cause cramping or vomiting.

I always learn something from you Michelle, thanks... I eat simple popcorn that I do in the microwave, about two bowls a day, because it satiates my enormous appetite without a lot of calories- it's organic, whole grain, no salt or butter etc. But I notice you said, "occasionally". Now, I'm a little constipated right now, so thanks to you, I'm going to temporarily skip my intake of a teaspoon or so of psyllium seeds into my instant oatmeal (though I'll continue to add: cinnamon, maple syrup, collagen, and frozen blueberries). So is that much popcorn part of the problem? The problem is, I'd like to lose a bit of weight, and the addition of popcorn was serving as a partial replacement for my formerly large intake of nuts: salted almonds and salted pistachios, plain walnuts and plain Brazil nuts: I'm nuts for nuts! So here I was thinking I was doing a good thing by emphasizing the popcorn over the nuts, but now... I dunno; what do you reckon? Thanks again.

I definitely agree with starting really slowly. I actually went too fast and ended up in the ER and having the doctor remove the waste. (1) Trying it the right way, I purchased probiotics and tested them for 2 months to see if they helped. The first one I bought was cheap and didn’t work then the second one was $40 and it worked. (2) Purchased a bullet blender and over 3 months increased my green shake to 3 a day. Green shake 2 cups mixed dark greens (Swiss chard, kale, collard greens, spinach) 1 cup blueberries, 1/2 pineapple, 1/2 firm banana ( for non IBS you can add a whole banana) + water. All this can be frozen including the greens. first month 1 bullet shake a day, 2nd month 2 bullet shakes a day, 3rd month 3 bullet shakes a day. Plan for a minimum of 9 months to “build up.” During this time drink about 1 gallon water (check with doctor if you have heart failure, COPD, heart lung or liver problems or edema). Also do miralax or some kind of over the counter daily for severe chronic constipation. I had to do miralax in the morning and one at night. Sometimes even colace or dulcolax and enemas too. (3) remove dairy completely no yogurt kefir milk ice cream 😢 (4) After the 9 months to a year try a plant based diet (or plant forward diet: twice a week you have some kind of meat in your meal) - at least 3 meals of: 1/2 dark leafy greens and 1/2 other vegetables.

Green bean casserole is helping me. I use frozen green beans. I thaw them out, simmer then in a pot with water until they're soft, then I make the casserole and bake it. If I'm not mistaken green beans have high levels of insoluble fiber. People say eat plenty of fiber but they don't tell you what kind of fiber. Another thing that's helping is trying to use the bathroom each morning. I have to rock back and forth on the toilet but it works so that's what I do. When I feel the slightest urge I go to the toilet. Otherwise the urge will go away and I probably won't be able to go to the bathroom that day. It can be frustrating. But each day you go to the bathroom is a success. One day at a time. If you don't go to the bathroom one day then be hopeful that you will the next day. Try not to get discouraged.

Feel your pain, it’s bad enough when it happens to us. Times a thousand when caregiving. As can be seen from Comments, it’s all so worrying. Lots of videos now on how to make a castor oil pack. Apply castor oil to flannel cloth…usually sold right next to the castor oil. Or use a well worn clean white that -shirt. Cover the abdomen with the cloth, then plastic or some cloth to act as a barrier layer. No dyes, make it white. Half an hour with a heating pad. The purpose of the flannel is to form a seal, right up against the skin. The pack can be refrigerated to use a few times. The oil will wash out, but more than one washing usually, pre-soak in baking soda water and then wash. The abdomen will become totally relaxed. Might put you to sleep, so relaxed. Recommended to use baking soda water to wipe the abdomen area. Toxins might have risen to skin surface, don’t wait to shower, swipe the area with clean baking soda water. Don’t want toxins to go back where they came from, cleanse the area. It’s a ritual we’re doing. When panicked, the body connection is disturbed. Like many people, the only time I have trouble is when I travel. Habits are habits, after all. For fissures it’s Vitamin E capsules all the way. Bite end to release the oil. It’s a perfect amount, or use two. Keep Vitamin E in the refrigerator, all oils become rancid…refrigerate, End of problem. Twice or three times, healed. Lots of things work. Nothing works unless we apply Persistence. Keep a record by taking a quick photo, give it a date to see when you started. Email yourself. There’s no need for a flame-thrower drug, home remedies work. Look up Country Wisdom, Native American, Appalachian. The grandmothers knew. It works, but needs persistence. Try different things. Dip a heel of Italian bread on a plate with a dollop of oil, olive, castor, whatever healthful oil, many are not. No need to take from a spoon….acquired taste or not. Just swipe a piece of bread, pleasant taste. Love Michelle’s content. I subscribed first thing.

In the case of problems passing stool you ought not to have a painful bowel movement with extreme pain. So you should avoid any stool pressure and bleeding due to hard stool. In order to keep off this one take regularly 1 tablespoon (= 15 ml) castor oil early in the morning on an empty stomach; 1 to 2 hours after having swallowed this dosage you will have an easy bowel movement without any pain.

Hi Michelle. I'm going in for a hysterectomy because of a uterine prolapse and pelvic floor repair on 9/11/20. I'm really concerned about constipation as I was told by my surgeon not to push in any way. Thankyou so much for this video and the one on using pillows to sleep. I already use the pillow between my knees due to 3 of my lumbar disks that are prolapsed. Thank you again ❤

My pleasure - many ladies here start on an osmotic laxative called Movicol or Odmolax from day 1 of their surgery, it keeps the stool soft but emptying stays gentle. I usually recommend a dose the day or two prior to surgery as well so the bowel is empty to start with. If you look up Osmolax equivalent in your country you’ll find it - usually 1 sachet a day and very safe (check with your pharmacist). All the best for your surgery!

I am using EHRETS method atm as loosely started fruit and veg last year which brought my seizures out to crazy moments. (Nervous, anxious, flushes of sweats soaking clothes, tingles, numbness, nausea and vomiting. Unbeknown to me I was breaking my fast with fruit instead of laxative foods. Can’t wait to try spinach/celery stew on my next fast and get to the end of 7 years of seizures 👌🏼 godliness has always been said to be close to cleanliness but it’s been misinterpreted to our outside and not our insides. A realisation I have noticed re old teachings. And I am not religious. But fascinating seeing the bible through the eyes of a healing rather than superstition that is attached. If anyone’s done psychedelics everyone knows I can reach same states being clean. Glad ur spinach helped. I can’t wait to try. X❤

You should be religious, because God created the Universe. We didn't magically evolve from a magical exploding dot for no reason. And it's an insult to Truth if you add your own interpretations to the Holy Scriptures.

Since thousands of years (Egypt!) the optimal manner to overcome not only occasional constipation but chronic constipation too naturally will be taking castor oil. Remember that castor oil is the only laxative that will not work in the intestines by irritating them, but by activating and synthesizing certain substances in the human body. So any habituation of the human body or diminishing laxative effect is absolutely impossible and castor oil is suitable in a special manner for chronic constipation. Take 1 tablespoon (15 ml) castor oil early in the morning on an empty stomach; eventuelly later a second tablespoon castor oil.
