Additional Tips to deal with continuing Constipation

From the survey taken by those completing Gut Thrive 2.0, the top 5 most helpful constipation tools are:

1: Coffee enemas

2: Increasing Triphala

3: Salt Flushes

4: Increasing water intake

5: Exercising

If you are still experiencing constipation, then you may use any or all of these five things to your benefit. At this point after the program, I would not suggest more than 2 coffee enemas and 2 salt flushes per week.

Triphala is known to be safe to stay on for up to six months.

Sometimes the simplest things are the ones we forget, so please keep your hydration up to at least 34 ounces for every 50lbs of body weight and make sure you are moving your body.

Rebounder trampolines are a great way to move the lymphatic fluid. They are also easy on the knees and very effective at detox and helping with constipation. You can find them for as low as $30 at Target and other places.

For those of you, especially on Plan S, still struggling with inveterate constipation after trying Neurosyn and CALM, I wanted to share two other products that may be something for you to try for reawakening motility.

MotilPro: MotilPro is an advanced gut signaling support formula, which helps regulate neurons embedded in the walls of the GI tract. Those collective neurons make up what’s called your enteric nervous system or your “gut brain”. They communicate via neurotransmitters (which you worked already with Neurosyn and CALM) to coordinate smooth muscle contraction. You can follow the dose on the bottle at 3/day and work up to 6 as your body responds.

Iberogast: This is another product aimed to improved motility in the GI tract (I would only choose ONE, not both if you are going to try a prokinetic). The mechanism of action to relax and stimulate the smooth muscle in order to regulate peristalsis is similar but the ingredients are different than MotilPro so I wanted you to have two choices.
