Constipated ? Smelly Poop?



A few days ago i sent out a mail on poop and your health. I received several questions on the same.
I am glad that many of you have actually realized the importance
of how a good poop can do wonders for your health.

 
We should always strive for the healthiest elimination habits possible.
Sometimes, due to things we have eaten, elimination is difficult,
while other times it is difficult to stop. Proper digestion and elimination go hand in hand.
Drinking healthy smoothies is a fabulous way to re-balance your digestive system
and relieve any uncomfortable issues that you may be having with elimination.
If your digestive system is in order, your elimination will be in order.
Rather than reach for over-the-counter aids when things go wrong “down under,”
try a healthier and safer alternative, a smoothie. No matter what your digestive malfunction is,
there is a smoothie to rectify the problem. There is nothing healthier than a fresh smoothie
made with whole food ingredients.

Constipation:

If you have poor bowel movement, and each visit to the loo is a painful struggle,
or you don't feel like going to the loo daily,  chances are you are constipated.
Your poops may be small, hard and very difficult to pass causing you exceptional discomfort.
It is important to understand that constipation is a symptom, not a disease, but chronic
constipation can lead to deadly diseases.
Constipation occurs when the colon absorbs too much water or if the colon’s muscle contractions are weak.
Constipation may also be a symptom of dehydration, lack of fiber, inactivity,stress, medications or irritable bowel.
Combine these ingredients in a blender for relief from painful constipation.
 
  • 6 pitted prunes (dried plums)
  • 1 cup apple juice (preferably fresh-squeezed)
  • 1 cup of crushed ice (using filtered water)
  • 1 cup of organic Kefir or plain organic yogurt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • Pinch of nutmeg
Put ice in the blender first, followed by other ingredients and blend well. Drink the smoothie right away.
 
Stinky Poop Smoothie
O.K. so you say that all poop stinks, right? Well, not exactly, some poop smells way worse than other poop. The odor of your poop is really dependent on a number of things, including what you are eating, medications, how long it has been sitting in your colon and possibly a bacterial imbalance in the digestive tract.
One way to bring balance back to your gut is to be sure that you are consuming plenty of healthy vegetables and fruits and very little, if any, processed foods.
Combine these ingredients in a blender to help improve the overall health of your digestive tract.
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 cucumber
  • 1 cup of crushed ice
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 celery stalks
  • 2 tablespoons aloe vera juice
Put the ice in the blender first, followed by the other ingredients and blend well. Drink right away.

Focus on your elimination. The faster you get toxins out of your system, the healthier you are
with less chances of contracting diseases and cancer.

You will slow down the process of aging and your mental ability and memory will improve.

You will feel lighter, all those headaches and migraines may just disappear and your battle with
weight loss may just change for the better.
