What is constipation?

One is considered constipated when one has a bowel movement less than three times a week. This may also be accompanied with hard to pass stool. When the constipation is persistent and lasts more than a week, the person is said to be suffering from chronic constipation. Chronic constipation can be very painful and also damaging to our colon. If the condition goes untreated for a while, it may lead to hemorrhoids.

What causes constipation?

One of the main reasons for constipation for many are due to low fiber diet, high fat diet, insufficient intake of fluid, lack of exercise and stress. Another reason can also be due to ignoring the urge to defect and/or medical conditions such as, under active thyroid gland or diabetes.

One of the best ways to ensure the health of our colon is by eliminating toxins from it. This brings me to the main message of this article. There are plenty of constipation treatments that one can do to get relief from constipation and clean our colon. If your reason for constipation is a medical one, make sure to consult a doctor to treat the cause.

Here are some remedies that will help you get relief right away.

Eat vegetables in large portions such as, spinach, red beet, cabbage, kale, avocado and cauliflower. You can also eat fruits such as, papaya, pear, apple and orange.

Here is the best recipe to make your own home made vegetable and fruit juice that is guaranteed to work. Blend water with cucumber, apple, papaya and celery. Drink this every morning on an empty stomach. For more chronic constipation you can drink it twice a day. If you're not able to find papaya you can replace it with pear.

You may have heard that prune juice is a god sent when it comes to constipation. I couldn't agree any more. Prune just not only is going to help you with constipation but also helps your bowel stay clean. Drink store bought prune juice with the juice you made or on its own once a day.
