Home Remedies for Constipation

<p>In this episode, we're talking about bowel habits or more specifically, constipation, yep we're going there. By constipated, I mean not having a bowel movement at least every 48 hours.</p> <p>I have had so many patients over the years show up and tell me their digestion is great and then when I ask how often they have a bowel movement they say, "once a week, maybe every two weeks".</p> <p>Beyond digestive discomfort, constipation can affect energy levels, cause brain fog, lower motivation, and lead to skin issues. I even had a patient when I was doing clinical rounds in medical school that would get heart palpations when she got backed up.</p> <p>Many times you will hear "just increase your water and fiber and this will take care of your constipation" but usually "getting things moving", requires more than this.</p> <p> </p> <p>--------</p> <p><a href= "https://drwholeness.myshopify.com/products/nourish-and-flourish-bootcamp"> Nourish to Flourish Bootcamp </a></p> <p><a href="https://drwholeness.activehosted.com/f/36">Get the 30 Day Microbiome Upgrade</a> </p> <p>Start accumulating health with the <a href= "https://drwholeness.com/stsguide">Shake the Sugar guide</a></p> <p>Ask your lifestyle health questions on social media, tag @drwholeness and use #accumulatehealth.</p> <p>--------</p> <p>Connect with Dr. Matt online:</p> <p>📍 Instagram </p> <p><a href= "https://instagram.com/drwholeness">https://instagram.com/drwholeness</a></p> <p>📍 Facebook</p> <p><a href= "https://facebook.com/drwholeness">https://facebook.com/drwholeness</a></p> <p>📍 Website</p> <p><a href= "https://drwholeness.com/">https://drwholeness.com</a></p> <p>📍 YouTube</p> <p><a href= "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxjrZpVN_JrfqaRdb9Z16rw/r">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxjrZpVN_JrfqaRdb9Z16rw/r</a> </p>
