Let's Talk about BMs!
February 5th, 2012You may not have talked about your bowel movements since you were a little kid, going "potty" proudly. However, how often and what consistency of waste we produce is a very good indicator of our health.
Once, I had a client whom I asked: "How often do you go?" She responded, "On a good month or a bad?" I withheld my shock and proceeded to ask her, "On a good month?" Her answer, "On a good month, I go once, on a bad month, I skip that month and go the following month." This adds up to between 4 to 6 weeks. That is not often enough!
If you are going 2-4 times a day, that is considered great. However, it needs to be of reasonably solid consistency, not rabbit pellets, but not loose either. If your digestion and elimination are sluggish, then you might consider a supplement, to improve your digestive enzymes, as well as bowel activity. One simple one that helps with both is called Bowel Detox.
On the other hand, if you have frequent, runny stools, Intestinal Soothe & Build can be very helpful. If you are missing a gall bladder, please use our Hi Lipase with every meal.
Other than that, I can help you personally, but on a general note, Intestinal Soothe & Build is very helpful.
Another client had a bleeding bowel and the doctor had him slated for surgery in two days, to remove much of his colon. We started him on Intestinal Soothe & Build, as well as Combination Potassium every two hours. The bleeding stopped and his surgery was canceled!
Success is possible with these challenges. Sometimes, we need in depth consultations to explore them. Other times, it can be easy to pick something and do well with it.
