How to Correct Your Constipation
FREE PDF: Top 25 Home Remedies That Really Work 👉 https://drbrg.co/3Kp0896
so the other day i was looking through my youtube videos and i was shocked to find out i had no videos on constipation that i could find so i decided to do one and this relates to two situations one is that you develop constipation after you do the ketogenic diet versus having constipation years before you do the ketogenic diet now if you’ve had constipation your whole life okay that’s a different situation i would highly recommend you go to a doctor that can evaluate that deeper maybe get some type of scan to look at your intestines because many times the large colon is completely dilated and distended to the point where it’s going to take a lot of work and a long time for people that had long term constipation and they’ve tried all sorts of things i’m going to recommend some type of herbal laxative i’ll put some links down below now some people are concerned about being dependent on herbal laxatives well the danger of having constipation or auto intoxication with all those toxins being recirculated is much greater than taking an herb to help you eliminate these toxins now there’s also many other things you can do for constipation but i’m going to answer that when i deal with this other situation you just started keto and all of a sudden you got constipated now i know someone’s going to say in the comment section well what about diarrhea because that’s what i had i already did a video on that i put the link down below so you just did keto you got constipation this is the order of things that i would take a look at you want to first adjust your vegetables a lot of people are not used to seven to ten cups of vegetables it may constipate them why because what is consuming that fiber is your microbes and you need to kind of build up these microbes you may not have enough to deal with that much fiber so you may want to start out with like i don’t know four cups of vegetables slowly go to five six seven over time so overloading these microbes with too much fiber could constipate you the other point is too when you take fiber in it’s going to swell up with fluid if you’re not drinking water after you consume the vegetables there could be a problem with kind of dehydrating your colon because of the gel effect with fiber it basically absorbs water it expands and it helps to form the stool so we want to adjust the quantity either up or down some people get constipation by consuming a lot of protein with no vegetables well then you might want to increase the vegetables so first thing is increase the quantity up or down to see if that handles it second thing is the type of vegetable if you’re consuming a lot of cruciferous vegetables some people don’t do well with that they can’t digest it as well so you might want to switch the type of vegetables that you consume it could be like like green lettuce leaves that might be something you could do or asparagus or celery just change the type next thing you can do is also switch to fermented vegetables sauerkraut kimchi many different types and this is much easier to digest the other thing you can do is you can steam some of your vegetables like maybe half of them and have half raw that seems to also help the ability to digest and process that fiber so this would be number one number two you are not ready to handle that much fat on the ketogenic plan because your bile reserves are not sufficient so you have a certain amount of bile that you’ve been using to digest food so you switch your diet to a higher fat diet and now the requirement for bile goes up because bile helps you break down fat it’s like the detergent that dissolves the fat so you may need to add some purified bile salts after the meal to assist in the digestion of the fat okay that’s the next thing i would look at and by the way bile salts are a natural lubricant so it’ll help you lubricate the colon and it’s actually good for constipation next thing is you want to add more potassium potassium helps the smooth muscle of the colon so you may want to take some electrolyte powder you just want to beef up no pun intended your amount of potassium okay number four you add a probiotic of course you’d want to do this this and this with the long-term constipation too but a good probiotic can help you break down these fibers i would recommend something that survives the stomach acidity but adding a probiotic is a very vital thing that you don’t want to forget about number five add a herbal laxative if you need it as a temporary thing and number six b1 if you’re deficient in b1 you could lack the necessary neurotransmitters to help activate the muscles in the colon so b1 naturally helps the peristalsis or the pumping action of the colon another common thing that a lot of people do with keto is to do mct oil mct oil has a natural laxative effect so in the process you may want to use some of this to help keep things going all right there you have it my video on constipation
