Natural Ways to get your Bowel Working Again.

#1 DRINK MORE LIQUID: You need to drink at least 2 quarts of liquid a day, if not more. Anything less than 64 ounces (2 quarts) of liquid a day doesn't give your fecal matter enough hydration to come out normally and easily. So in other words, your fecal matter gets too hard and it has a hard time leaving your body. Dehydration is the number one cause of constipation. The best liquids to drink are pure water, herb tea, and diluted fruit and vegetable juices.

#2 EAT MORE FIBER: You have to eat foods with more Fiber in it. There is no fiber in animal food or animal by-products. There is no fiber in meat, chicken, dairy, or cheese. Therefore you want a high fiber vegetarian food program of vegetables, fruits, nuts, beans, legumes and grains. That's where Fiber is.

#3 EAT MORE NATURAL LAXATIVES: Apples, Bananas, Figs, and Prunes. Go on a raw fod program for a few days and you won't have to worry about constipation.

#4 MOVE YOUR BODY: All movement excites peristaltic muscular waves, the muscular contractions of the bowels. Exercise will get your bowels working again.

#5 COLON HYDROTHERAPY: A Colonic session naturally removes toxins and old waste from the colon. It is recommended you do a minimum series of 3 in 10 days. However, a series of 10 in 5 weeks have been found to be highly effective, especially with those who have bouts with constipation. This method is the best way to cleanse your system and allow your body to start functioning optimally again.

#6 POSITIVE EMOTIONS: We have to reduce our stress level. Stress, Anger, Fear, and Hate are strong emotions that will cause people to get constipated and bloated more than eating 10 lbs of cheese. Release your stress, learn to laugh, breath properly. Tell yourself you love yourself daily.
