constipation / Hi everyone

[Guest guest]

I would also be interested in hearing more about this. Since I hit 40

or so, my digestive tract sometimes slows down to almost nothing. I

will not go to the MD, will not have their expensive, invasive tests.

I have had intermittent, mild gall bladder sypmtoms since about 30

(stress seems to do that, and I have had extreme emotional stress

since age 8). I also have brown " liver spots " along my jawline, and it

sounds like the liver and gallbladder are sort of interchangeable as

far as symptoms like this...?

 

When I eat too much, or maybe when the bowel just about stops for a

few days, I will get really ill, strange feelings -- sort of chills

and nausea and weakness and just all kinds of awful things.

 

As long as I keep everything moving, I don't get sick like that.

Metamucil-type fiber does help, and prune juice helps, but I know for

real relief I need to do something better than that.

 

I have a Vita-Mix blender, and finally started using it for the

whole-food smoothies -- whatever kind of raw vegetables and fruits I

have on hand. It tastes good (esp. with addition of some unsweetened

coconut and cinnamon and curry powder), and when I drink those, I have

no constipation. Makes sense. All that raw produce; what the body

needs, anyway. When I drink this every day, and don't eat the

hamburgers and crap, I feel good, so maybe that will be my answer for

all my health issues.
