I'm not sure but ,if anyone else wants to uncover foods to cure constipation try Trentvorty Herbal Protection Theorem (do a google search )? It is a smashing exclusive product for curing constipation naturally minus the normal expense. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my cousin got great success with it.

[@kennykenaz8340]

Cheers for the Video! Forgive me for butting in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Neyelin Rose Racinage (probably on Google)? It is an awesome one of a kind product for getting rid of constipation without the hard work. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my mate finally got great results with it.

[@user-fi1xu1pp7p]

Stool softer is the best. It keeps my EXTREMELY painful hemorrhoid under control. Also I lost like 15lbs taking that thing. It pulls water, but also pulls fats. So I drink a ton of water daily.

[@indirah1099]

It does not pull fat💀 you are losing water weight and the weight of the stool in your colon. Laxatives do not burn fat

[@Moccalocca100]

Unfortunaly i cant get them without a prescription from my doctor

[@rubiolo1019]

Im curious how constipation leads to delirium

[@TheKatarinaGiselle]

I would like an explanation for that too!

[@feezashaikh1723]

Constipation leads to increase ammonia level in body due to delayed transit rate and increased absoreption of ammonia...ammonia affects the brain tissue in conginitiv function hence leading the delirium state of patient

Has anyone only used senakot or dulcolax before having a colonoscopy?

[@merlin5476]

Senakot does nothing for me, whereas ducolax ( sodium pico sulphate) WILL clear me out within 7 hours. I had a colonoscopy yesterday ( they found everything to be normal) !!! But everytime i eat ANYTHING it just stays in my stomach for around 4 or 5 days until i have 1 spoonful of Ducolax.

[@rizwanali649]

Metformin tablets was the reason why I had constipation in the first place I ended up changing jobs (less wages) from office to part time office 3 days and 2 days warehouse walking work. A big increase in my walking excercise. That's exactly what I had been doing. Eating Branflakes every morning. I was also taking a lot of senakot tablets. Increased my vegetable intake. With the excercise in my life. My sugar levels dropped dramatically and medication was reduced. And then finally no more medication. And suddenly those hard work in the toilet was gone. Ramadhan fasting taught me how to discipline and control what went in my mouth and hence the body If you are on certain medication, then this video advice will not work for you. You need to change your lifestyle to get off those medications that are giving you the problems in the first place.

[@rajakadil1970]

Is this hepl my Father 77yrs old? Painful don't know how to poop 24hrs so noisy like his suffered constipation worst

[@choongjiancheong8923]

Too much meat will make the poop very hard,than your father will have problems going to the toilet. I also have the same problem,because I eat too much meat,than my doctor told me to eat less meat and eat more vegetable and fruits and drink more water. I hope this will help Father and everyone else’s good n your family. Take care and stay safe! God bless

All these food suggestions may not work. Give him probiotics or just yogurt with live bacteria.
