If constipation is a problem for you, you probably already know about the dangers of laxative dependence. Most doctors will tell you it's OK to take a laxative once in a while; but taking them every day is asking for trouble.
On the other hand -especially if you're not very active, eat a low-fiber diet, or are taking certain prescription drugs (including some pain killers) -you may need more than occasional help to keep on a regular schedule. And if you're saddled with a slow-moving colon, you've probably already noticed that when you've gone a couple of days without clearing wastes and toxins out of your body, you're more likely to feel sluggish, drained and draggy. What to do?
Simple changes can make a big difference.
Eating more fiber-rich fruits, nuts and veggies are good first steps toward improving your colon health without laxatives. So is drinking more water and getting regular exercise. And one of the best things you can do is take new Catherine's Choicer™ ColonEase.
Five kinds of fiber for colon health.
Fiber is good for your whole body: heart, blood sugar, and especially colon health.
The Psyllium in ColonEase soaks up liquid in your intestines to help form a bulky stool which is soft and easy to pass. Oat straw adds bulk and has a calming effect that's especially appreciated by people with hemorrhoids or ibs. And of course we all know about oat fiber's benefits for cardio health. In addition to fiber, Wheat grass supplies enzymes, antioxidants, and minerals like magnesium that help draw moisture into the stools. Alfalfa is another good source of fiber; it also supplies vitamin K, which helps support healthy bacteria in the digestive tract. And if you tend to alternate between constipation and diarrhea, you'll really appreciate the Apple fiber in ColonEase. Its high pectin content helps to draw water into the stools and hold it there to give you a happy medium- not too loose, not too dry, At the same time, this healthy fiber helps slow absorption of sugar into your bloodstream. Moisture makes the difference!
Bentonite is a medicinal clay that can draw and hold a whole lot of water in your stools. This makes it good for diarrhea as well as for constipation. Along with the water, it grabs onto toxins so your body can eliminate them, too.
Rhubarb is natural stool softener that also has a gentle stimulant effect. Dr. Andrew Weil calls it "one of the safest and least violent" of the herbal colon stimulants.
Strengthening the muscles that line your colon walls. Cascara, Senna and Buckthorn all encourage stronger contractions of the large muscles that keep material moving through your digestive system. At the same time, Buckthorn helps boost retention of water and electrolytes in the large intestine, so it serves as a stool softener as well. Compounds found in Buckthorn are reported to have anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and detoxifying effects. To help your digestive system strike just the right balance of muscle activity - not too little, not too much - ColonEase also contains Fennel seed. Long used to help soothe colicky babies, fennel helps relax the smooth muscles that line the intestinal walls and relieve discomfort caused by gas.
Finally, this Catherine's Choice™ formula contains 25 mg of Aloe Vera - a fine colon cleanser, a good source of fiber, and a healing, soothing tonic for your digestion (and your entire body). These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
