Someone here posted that eating a lot of apples will help - you have to eat 3-4

for results but it has definitely worked for me.

Mainly you need to take high qtys of magnesium which is the main thing your

body needs when you are constipated. I'm not sure what the max amt you can take

is - I'll try to find out.

Also try to have some olive oil every day which acts as a lubricant, and of

course plenty of water. Has this gotten worse since the weather got colder?

Think how dry and tight your skin gets in the winter - the same thing is

happening to your internal organs. You need to eat and drink things that will

keep them from drying out.

And by the way - stop eating jello, cereal and pizza! None of them will help

you.

Good luck!

I eat one apple a day right now, but I'll try to up that. I'm doing the parasite

cleanse so I'm eating on veggies/fruits. Do you know what kinds of food have

magnesium ? I'm vegetarian too :)

Thanks!

The kind of fibrer you add is critical...

Apples good, cereal bad....:)

Hi to everyone,

Shefy -- I too have experienced constipation and have be searching

for an answer for years.

I tried fibre, more water, eating fruit -- but none of those gave me

the desired results.

I believe I have finally found the solution for me -- magnesium

supplement. I agree with

's statement about needing to take high quantities of mag.

There are many different

forms of mag. out there on the market -- my research has led to

magnesium oxide being

the best form for those with a tendency for constipation. Relative

to Karyn's question on

" the max amt you can take " , that varies with each person. You will

need to experiment

with the amount -- start with one 400 mg. tablet/capsule, and

increase your intake by one

each day until you experience watery bowel movements (bm's), then

back off by one and monitor

how you do at that level. I have learned that I have to take 2 to

3 400 mg. capsules of

mag. oxide per day to keep things moving -- you may need only 1 per

day, or maybe 6

per day. Take however many you need to have multiple bowel

movements per day. I have

read that a rule of thumb is to have a BM for each regular meal you

eat -- three meals =

3 bm's. It is probably best to divide up to daily dose -- in other

words, don't take them all

at the same time. If you take 3, take one in am, one in afternoon,

and one at bedtime.

The 1997 Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) for magnesium is 420 mg. for

males 25 and over,

and 320 mg. for females 25 and over. This info came from the book

" Nutrition Almanac " ,

Fifth Edition, by Lavon J. Dunne. This book recommends 400-800 mg.

per day

for constipation. Other nutrients suggested are Vit. C (1000 mg.),

folic acid (2-5 mg. if

deficient - I don't know how one would determine this), pectin (500

mg. - source of fibre).

What the mag. does is promote muscle contraction of the smooth

muscles in the gut.

Ellie Cullen, RN, author of the book " Normal Blood Test Scores Aren't

Good Enough ! " ,

finds, thru blood testing (her testing service is called Your Future

Health (YFH) --

www.yourfuturehealth.com ), low mag. levels in 90 % of clients

tested. I had

my blood tested thru YFH and learned that I was low in magnesium (1.3

MEQ/L, where

the lab reference range was 1.3 - 2.1). The optimal level would

be around

2. Isn't it interesting that a test for magnesium level in the

blood is not a part of any

standard panel of tests suggested by the American Medical

Association. Ellie Cullen

also finds that around 80 % of clients tested are deficient in zinc.

The magnesium oxide supplement I like is Liquid Magnesium, from

Carlson Labs. The best

buy I have found is at vitacost.com --- 250 capsules for $18.

Here is their web link:

http://www.vitacost.com/

Give magnesium oxide a try, and let us know whether or not you are

having a " moving " experience !!!

To spell it out, " mystery " constipation is often caused by a simple

fluorish of bad bowel bacteria in the gut, fed by an overabundance

of carbohydrates. The condition, called dysbiosis, or in Europe,

dysbacteriosis, is one in which bowel candida and other pathogenic

organisms fluorish as the rise in PH fails to subdue them.

The result is huge toxin load as production continues 24 hours a

day; obviously this toxin source will undermine the rest of your

health regime. Toxin load has been identified as a cause of immune

dysfunction for example.

The cure is inulin; it corrects diarrhea, constipation, AND

dysbiosis. And the modern diet is deficient in inulin by some 3/4

to 4/5. Further information on inulin is here:

Hi Duncan,

Yes, I do believe that's what I have. My pH level is very acidic. In fact my

urine is very hot, literally. And I have a lot of acid reflux, too. All due to

candida I believe. I'm not sure what foods have inulin? I'm vegetarian, too!

Any more help?

Thanks!

Again, I would lay off things like pizza which will have the opposite effect.

You could also try taking magnesium supplements to see if that helps.

You still may benefit from supplementing with magnesium and probiotics.

Although that chart shows magnesium rich foods and WHAT IS SUPPOSED to

be in, with today's farming practices, I doubt that those numbers are

correct.

Magnesium good, water intake good, fiber (vegetarian) good....

Acid reflux, inflammation.....hmmmm

Almost sounds like when you ingest fats there is no bile salts in the

stomach to help break the fats down...and the gall bladder is reacting by

dumping huge amounts of acid into the stomach to do the job...

If over time those acids reach the lower GI.....you might have IBS like your

doc said...

Make sure you're not drinking too much water and that it is not distilled

(unless you're doing a cleanse) as too much water will begin to pull

minerals from the body. More minerals, more alkaline generally speaking....

Also, one member of my family had the nausea and later turned out she had an

intestinal blockage...the doc may have wanted the sigmoidoscopy to check

that and check for diverticuluosis...really can't tell too much from an

x-ray...not too big a deal, I just had it done too! In and out in 6 hours,

same day....and the peace of mind to go with it....

I beat my acid reflux by eating cholesterol, water, PeptoBismol) bismuth

(hostile to H. Pylori and turns stool black) , and eating a can of pineapple

a day for 30 days....(although my cholesterol intake mainly came from animal

fats) If you could eat cheeses eggs and butter that would help to create the

lacking bile salts....but ingesting it actually produces more acid in the

beginning so have plenty of water and Pepto-Bismol or equivalent around of

you try it...took me about 6 weeks....and now I just have to watch what I

eat and keep drinking the water!...:)

Yes, that's probably what happened to me. I thought I had an intestinal blockage

but my doc said that pain is " unbearable " . I just have a discomfort in my

gallbladder. I eat cheeses, but I will start adding eggs back in. I just can't

bear the thought of a sigmoidoscopy. My dad just had one done, but he needed it.

I'm only 21! I just can't bear the thought of it...at least yet.

If I was OK with doing that I'd probably go and get a colon cleansing enema or

whatever they call it!

Best,

  • 2 weeks later...

my high school age daughter found constipation for several years.

After she ended up in the e.r two days in a row.. from

hives...fainting ect... (e.r doctors said it was from a cold she

had... another said allergeis to nuts) I took her to a chiropractor

who was a health nut... stool test showed her gut was full of bad

bacteria and she had no good bacteria. She was put on cipro for a few

days and then the acidophulus ect was added back in. she felt better

and had energy again and no constipation.

Cipro is the very drug that push me over the edge with candidiasis. It

is a very powerful antibiotic that kills everything in the GI tract as far

as bacteria goes, including both good and bad bacteria. This is the prime

time for candida to take root and overgrow. It's a good thing she took the

acidophilus afterward or she would have likely developed it as well.

I was very surprised that the chiropractor who was very health

oriented... would have a doctor prescribe cipro for you problem The bad

bacteria was tremendous..which explained a lot. she had yeast infections

showing up every 4 weeks.... they used to show up a couple times a year.

He had a concern about her not having any good bacteria in her gut and

told us how important it was to start on the probiotics when he

instructed her too.

She hasnt had a yeast infection since... nor has she had constipation...

her problem had been growing for several years.

I often felt it started her 8th grade summer when a bakery employee

found out how much she loved chocolate donuts, and sent them home to her ...

she ate 2 chocolate donuts daily for months... bad bad bad.

I took cipro last year for a UTI and it's been downhill after that. I have a

constant yeast infection, but with no infectin. I guess just the symptoms....

Sometimes the doctor finds bacteria and gives me diflucan. No help.

I took acidophilus and cranberry along with the antibiotics/diflucan and I

still think I got this candiasis thing.
