Guest guest Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 When my son has BM issues, we amp up the water intake to 16 or more glasses a day, make him exercise and give him a magnesium-calcium ionic fix before bed every night. Usually, within 24-36 hours, his bowels are moving again. You might also try a colemic or theraputic massage. I have not tried a colemic, however I know people that swear by them. Theraputic massage does work well, in my experience. enji <enjisweet Sunday, October 19, 2008 4:42:36 PM << >> Help severe constipation!!!

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 In India and Pakistan we use what we call in our native language, ISABGOL, i.e. PSYLLIUM HUSK. If you Google Psyllium Husk you will get whole lot of benefits for this wonderful Husk. In case of constipation we use ONE table spoon in warm water or warm milk. Stir it and leave for about five minutes and then again stir it and drink it before going to bed. We have no side effects and have found to be good for reducing cholestrol. Please note that we are NOT recommending anything to you, we are only telling what we do. If you wish to try, I hope it will be good for you too. Your Doctor is the best advisor.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 There is a product, non-addictive, that I have been using for many years. It is expensive -- about $18 a bottle plus postage -- but it acts naturally. It is the Turkey Rhubarb formula by The Herb Finder www.theherbfinder.com I usually take 2 capsules daily when I need it and then I do not take it. It works more slowly, not like a laxative. Magnesium Citrate works but it is a harsh laxative. We really need to keep ourselves " regular " so that the toxins from the wastes are not reabsorbed into the body. Laxatives work so quickly that we do not absorb nutrients from our food. This has been a problem for me so I do understand. I tried everything and this works the best...at least, for me. ~ Lynn Koiner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 There is Cascara Sagrada which is usually effective; and as you say, lots of water. I like to use the green outer leaves from Aloe Vera...or eat about half a leaf fresh. The gel helps settle the stomach. For that just gotta go I use a bottle of magnesium citrate ( the green bottle). It will fizz the colon clean. Look at the diet: make sure that there is some real nutrition (ie eliminate processed foods) and fiber. Oat meal is a good daily food; and prunes arent bad tasting.

Guest guest Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Hi Do you know the cause of your constipation, if it is diet related, you might want to take another look at that. You may also try, Dr Schulze Bowel cleanse. I used it for 3 months then stopped and now i have bowel movements almost everyday. Previsouly, i had bowel movement once evry 7 - 10 days. all the best Jenn --- On Mon, 10/20/08, philip P. K <philipkolencherry wrote: philip P.

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Magnesium isn't a laxative per say- it is a mineral and most people are deficient in magnesium anyway. Magnesium has been used for insomnia and muscle cramps and also to slow down the heart rate. Magnesium supplements are SAFE! Magnesium is bundled into calcium supplements because calcium will constipate you. I have studies natural medicine in graduate school and both my natural medicine physician who happens to be a MD and I are in agreement! Parsley is also a good laxative, too. ---- June Parker 10/27/2008 5:15:38 PM Cc: bluebonnet08 Re: << >> Help severe constipation!!!
