Constipation is the Root of 90% of ALL Disease

Found this in my studies today...
"more than 90 percent of all disease is caused by congestion in the colon. The commonplace American diet of processed foods causes the bowel to weaken, creating pockets and balloons filled with old fecal matter. Dried, compacted matter builds up on the walls of the colon, becoming hard incrustations that soak up fluid; most people have pounds of this matter, which interferes with the body's ability to absorb nutrients." --Dr. Christpher, An Herbal Legacy
Things that DO help, tips I really like and are not habit forming:
Mild Constipation-More water!, Red Raspberry Tea, Exercise, Greens, Fiber (primarily chia/flax seeds), Apple Cider Vinegar, Probiotics
More Severe-Dr. Christopher's Lower Bowel Formula, 30 minutes+ intense Cardio (Running especially), Aloe Vera, and Prune Juice.

These are some bowel "foods" that work as stimulating the peristaltic muscles as a healing laxative. Cool huh??

  1. Em, have you tried this laxative!? I want to know more. The phrase "creating pockets and balloons filled with old fecal matter" stresses me out.
