Guest guest Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 I would also add to your diet an herb such as dandelion which is a liver tonic. If the liver is sluggish it could affect the bowels. Herbs like senna fix the problem temporarily but are not the cure, unless the situation isn't chronic. Causes of chronic constipation can be poor health, sluggish liver (usually accompanied with prescription medication), stress, and anxiety. If you have some form of anxiety and are not taking prescription drugs for it, I would consider taking an herb like valerien. So I guess I should ask, what do you believe is the cause of the constipation? I had a temporary bought with it when I altered my diet to include more protein. It wasn't extreme but I wasn't even meeting my minimum protein requirements. Suzanne Nottmeier <suziesgoats wrote: Debi, Sorry about being so brief earlier.... I'm in Illinois and we were hit with really severe weather... lost power for a bit... thank goodness we missed the tornados, high winds and damaging hail.. got some wind and hail and a lot of rain---a couple inches in about a hour... but it has somewhat calmed down.. anyway, What is your diet consist of? Avoid constipating foods and drinks, such as white flour, cheese, fried foods, sweets, salt, beef, pasteurized milk, all junk food, wine, carbonated drinks, and coffee. Certain berries with a large amount of seeds, such as strawberries, huckleberries, raspberries and blackberries, should be avoided, too, as they have a tendency to constipate. Prune juice is good... and a juice fast would probably help also.The intestinal cleanse #1 in the files would also be good.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 Most of us make our own formulas... order the herbs, etc... I believe the Vitamin Shoppe http://www.supervitaminoutlet.com/ on line is a good source... I've heard some talk about them... hopefully others on here will be able to tell you something...

Echinacea along with other immune strengthening herbs work very well. If there is any immunity left to work with, Echinacea even in very small dosages will help reverse the damage. On the other hand if you received multiple treatments you may need to use it to the max. I used 25 to 30 or more drops of Enzymatic Therapy's liquid. These supplements are superb!

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Thanks JoAnn. I am taking a product now which is soy based and total food. I can drink it up to six times a day and if I make " smoothies " , it is like a meal. I only do this twice with the banana and strawberry. I am building up for surgery in June for takedown of a colostomy. I feel pretty wonderful since stopping the chemo and getting detoxifying. I have added lemon water to help with the alkalininity and seem to have totally lost interest in any meat products. I appreciate the info on echinachea (I do have it here).

Many of them include soy protein isolate which is genetically engineered. I believe that " shaklee " offers a good non-gmo soy shake. They say that fermented varieties are considerably more bioavailable, but then the correct diet also depends on whether you have a " hormone dependent " cancer. The best approach would be to follow a diet free of processed foods, sugar and other adrenal stressors, although I certainly would not limit my fresh organic fruits, for they are a fabulous source of cancer suppressing nutrients. It would be good to include more spinach (fresh or frozen) berries and other high antioxidant foods in your diet. Did you know that strawberries are genetically engineered also? Blueberries make a good substitute although raspberries are beneficial specifically for women. Pinto beans are actually better than soybeans for correcting hormonal imbalances. I try to include them in my daily diet in some form or another. God Bless, JoAnn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 I am definitely doing free of processed foods, sugar. a Since I have had the resect, spinach does not digest at all and I have to be careful with seeds in some of the berrys though each day is an improvement.These shakes are very high antioxidant (I truly don't think I could " eat " better. The shakes are a food product. include more spinach (fresh or frozen) berries and other high Most of my fruit is organic and comes from places I have shopped for a long time. Thanks for your note.
