5 Tips – Relief for Constipation.

Re-think your diet. Get enough fiber into your diet. Eat fresh vegetables and fruits. Limit sugary fruit intake like mangoes, bananas. Have more blueberries and raspberries. 

Re-think your water. Try buying a filter for your house. Your water should be filtered with mineral content, artesian or at least spring water.


Re-think your exercise or lack of it. Getting enough exercise weekly would make a difference for most patients. Just getting enough exercise alone helps patients relieve constipation. Regular exercise improves many health conditions in general. 

Re-think constipation cure. Looking for constipation cures is looking for easy way out. Instead look within yourself and look at what you can do to improve your gut health. That would include stopping smoking, limiting your alcohol consumption or going to bed earlier. Relaxation and breathing techniques could very much help too.


Re-think stress. It’s not just the stress from work, but also dietary stress or environmental stress. Functional medicine can’t help you not get the stress. But Functional medicine could help you not get sick for it. I practice Functional Medicine and this method has a very high rate of success with constipation relief.

It’s essential to relieve constipation same as getting enough oxygen or enough food. Chronic constipation may be more dangerous than toxic environment or toxic food. Backed up toxins inside of your intestines flow back and forth into your bloodstream.
