had a question from someone that wanted

to know about laxatives are they

dangerous or they okay well I guess they

would be dangerous some people might get

addicted to them for some reason or if

you have diarrhea when you take them

that could potentially you know cause

the loss of electrolytes in which case

you’d want to just add them back but I’m

just gonna say this the danger of having

constipation having your body in the

state where it’s Auto intoxication we’re

having toxins being reabsorbed is way

worse than the slight minor problems

with any type of laxatives so if you

have constipation definitely as a coping

mechanism take an herbal laxative one

good one would be cascara Sagrada

there’s many others but definitely take

the herbal laxatives

instead of having constipation as you’re

figuring out what’s really causing the

constipation it’s much easier to correct

constipation if it happened recently

because there’s usually been a change in

the diet maybe you added too much fiber

well you took fiber away and you

consumed higher protein in that case

just make adjustments to revert that

change but if you had constipation

chronically it is more difficult there

are several things that I always

recommend to help this condition one is

MCT oil that will loosen up your bowels

all right taking bile salts will give

you a laxative effect it could be the

very reason why you have constipation is

that you’re lacking bile so by taking it

you can actually correct the cause let’s

say for example you don’t have a gall

bladder or you have gall stones or

there’s some problem in your liver in

which your body is not making these bile

salts if you’re in vitamin b1 deficient

that can cause a constipation if you’re

low in potassium and magnesium and that

can cause constipation and the foods

that are high in magnesium and potassium

are vegetables so if you’re not

consuming any vegetables you might want

to start because that could help you and

that relates to this one right here

adjusting the fiber so either increasing

the fiber from vegetables or decreasing

the fiber because I dunno some people if

they overload the system with too many

vegetables that

can cause constipation because they

don’t have the microbes there to deal

with that fiber then we have probiotics

it could be very simple that you just do

not have the quantity of microbes in

your large intestine maybe you’ve had a

series of antibiotics early on and

that’s what created the problem but

taking these could greatly help you and

then fasting is also important because

if you have constipation and you fast

it’ll allow your system to have a chance

to reset especially if there’s stress

within the digestive tract alright
