This exercise/treatment for constipation is miraculous! I've not had a problem since the first evening I started doing just 2 of the exercises each evening. I went from a BM of raisins to normal-sized BMs. THANK YOU From the bottom of my heart!! No harsh laxatives are needed ever again.
Dr Tori u are absolutely an amazing human being. U are the sweetest person and have such a kind soul. God bless u! U are helping so many people its wonderful!
Why is it, some videos say “Don’t eat fiber when you’re backed up, it will make it worse!” And others say, “You need fiber to help get you moving.” What determines when to use fiber and when not to use it?
My Lord Jesus fix my horrible constipation with Kiwi 🥝 One in the morning before food One before lunch ..and One in the evening..if you need. Thank you Jesus for healing all my health problems 🙏
I have spina bifida and had issues with my bowel since birth. I've tried nearly everything. Milk of magnesia, fybogel, metamucil, laxatives, bowel flushing, eating more fibre and vegetables. Nothing worked. Vegetables just bunged me up. I've finally cured my chronic constipation. What I do is eat 5 to 6 pieces of fruit a day and a probiotic yoghurt. Fruit for breakfast and dinner. I will eat whatever i like for lunch. I take two magnesium citrate capsules every day and two digestive enzymes. I'm now going daily or every other day. Before I would go once a week or once every two weeks.
Following you..its very helpful..I have had major gut issues with chronic constipation been on herbal laxatives since 10 years .now weaning them off with your suggestions. God bless you.
I am so sorry to learn about your struggles with gut issues and constipation, but I am ecstatic that you feel able to wean off of herbal laxatives now! That's wonderful news! Bodies are capable of such immense healing, and I'm sure yours is no different. Try to be patient and kind with your body as it learns how to stimulate its intestines by itself again. You got this ❤️
Your information is very helpful and how you present it is exceptional for me. Thank you. My anxiety is reduced because of your education and relaxed way of presenting these sensitive subjects.
Just put 2 table spoon of castor oil in cup of warm milk drink it at night. It's realy very very effective... And also thank you for this video stay blessed. ☺
Since centuries the optimal manner to overcome not only occasional constipation but chronic constipation too will be taking castor oil. Remember that castor oil is the only laxative that will not work in the intestines by irritating them, but by activating and synthesizing certain substances in the human body. So any habituation of the human body or diminishing laxative effect is absolutely impossible and castor oil is suitable in a special manner for chronic constipation. Take 1 tablespoon (= 15 ml) castor oil early in the morning on an empty stomach and 1 to 2 hours later you will remark its relieving effects.
@@daniellesammy0827 Castor oil "for internal use", for this one is not only cold pressed but further treated with steam in order to destroy the last traces of the extreme dangerous toxin ricine.
Thx so very much!!! Constipation has been a terribly huge hurdle in dealing with this new world! I will continue to improve my new normal. Thank you again!
Hi. I think your videos are amazing! I was wondering, can you wear a microphone so your voice is louder? I don't know if it's my phone but i can't hear you well in videos sometimes. Thank you for all the good you do!
Absolutely! My more current videos have improved audio for this very reason, but if there's anything I can help clarify in this video don't hesitate to ask! Also, I double checked, and the English auto-generated closed captions are available on this video if that's helpful for you 💛
Love the video.❤ I thought oat bran has equal amounts of soluble and insoluble fiber? Thank you for the recipe. Adding half a teaspoon of wheat bran to the recipe works for me to go regular
Thank you so much for explaining thoroughly this particular problem and giving a range of options with natural remedies as well as the how to sit in toilet bowl for a easier bowl movement.
Hi, this is Denise and I'm a subscriber. I watched this video in Sept. 2023, and your content in your videos are way more valuable than $50. So I'm not sorry I missed this promotion.. In suggesting new topics for videos would you explain in upcoming videos, H Pylori. I have been to several gastroenterologists and am not getting the answers to my problems with my gut. Thank you for your videos.
Thanks for your video. I am a Canadian senior citizen in my 70s and facing constipated feelings, lack of complete evacuation of stool and bloating. I am very active and go to gym. Doctors say I have IBS-C. I tried numerous home remedies and ultimately only laxatives help. Kindly guide me with any such laxatives which have no side effects and not habit forming. Thanks
Tori thank you so much, the information is very helpful. I am going to give the recipie a try and keep you posted. Now, I am off to watch another video! Thanks again!
You are so welcome! I hope you find some helpful content within my channel, and I wish you nothing but the best navigating Celiac's -- I know that can be a challenging path. Wishing you nothing but the best ❤
A very nice and useful video. You have excellent presentation skills. Since I believe in natural remedy, I will try your recipe and add additional comment on the results of my experience.
Glad I found you just made your recipe this morning. Even laxatives don’t work for me. Praying this does. Magnesium Gliycinate was working wonderful for me and for some reason quit working. Would you possibly know why? Thank you 🙏
Hi Tammy! I am glad you found this channel, too! I believe I do say in this video that, if you have a history of laxative use, this recipe might not be as effective -- but I do hope that it is helpful for you. Laxatives are a vast and tricky subject, and it is very difficult to make any general claims about them/why they sometimes stop working... but! If you are interested in learning a little bit more, I did make a video all about laxative weaning that you can check out here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-83iS4N_HQYk.html Let me know if you have any other questions, and I wish you nothing but the best ❤
Thank you so much for responding. I’ve tried them a few times but never used them regularly. I don’t think 🤔 that would make me laxative dependent? Magnesium is a supplement because I am magnesium deficient it just happened to help for awhile. Thank you for your kindness in responding
@@tammygardner7953 Oh! Magnesium works by pulling water into the intestines, which softens the stool and makes it easier to pass -- it is an osmotic laxative, like MiriLax! I am not sure why it stopped working, though! Knowing that you're not using laxatives regularly makes me more hopeful that this recipe will work for you :) And of course, thank you so much for watching and commenting 💕
Drink v warm water at night and in the morning as warm as you can drink. Before breakfast boil 2 tbsp aniseed and 3 green cardamom in 3 to 4 glasses of water till only one glass remains drink this daily in the morning before breakfast. Walk about in the morning do not sit long, empty bladder often. Take morning walk if possible or evenin Avoid drinking cold water. Chew food vv well avoid sugar. Take fruit daily and veges also. Take deep breaths. Check out yoga exercises for constipation on you tube the one in which you pull your stomach back then push forward. Put a foot stool under your feet.
I really appreciate that feedback! I realized how to better the volume in my videos starting in February of this year, so the videos around then and afterwards should have better volume 💕 let me know if you have any clarification questions//if something was too quiet to understand! Wishing you the best 😊
@@PelvicEmpowerment hello doc.tori the yoga poses you taught for bowel movement ,I tried I was amazed by using this idea,I m very pleased with it thanks again 😊🙏 I have a request if u have Answer for that,I m 60 years old and I start having this problem about year ago ,it start increasing day by day.it happens at night time when I sleep.i feel so discomfort in my center in food pipe all the way through in my bowel and then with that uncomfortness my heart beats so high that I cant sleep well and I wake up with so bad situation.as soon I stand up I start feeling better. My doc.told me its bowel syndrome. If u can give me any advise about it,I will be sooo thankfull ☺🙏and to add in I m diabetic too but not bad it's in control with medication. Thanks again with lots of regard.....❤
I made your prune juice recipe yesterday and took one spoon last night it worked so well,other laxative medications disturbed my stomach and I m happy it's so natural and tasty :)
I am so glad that the yoga poses and this remedy are helping you, that's wonderful! I am sorry to hear about your constipation symptoms/waking at night with an elevated heartbeat. Unfortunately I cannot give individualized medical advice, but I am so happy to hear that you've already discussed this with your physician. My only general thought is that perhaps more regular bowel movements throughout the day can help prevent these uncomfortable nighttime symptoms! I really wish I could be more helpful. So glad you're feeling better ❤️
Hi Tori - is constipation sometimes a result of low bile release from the gallbladder? What is the best natural way to promote proper bile flow from the gallbladder?
Do you have anything for a running stomach. I had bad constipation went to the doctor who gave me something which made my stomach work and run. That was 2 weeks ago and I still have a very bad running stomach. If I have a cup of tea then it runs like crazy plus it gives me tummy ache as well.
Hi, thank you so much for being so helpful. My question is, will this eventually clear out the colon ie with repeated use, as that’s the aim? Thanks in advance x
Hi! Hmm... this isn't meant to be a colonic, if that is what you mean by "clean out the colon." It is meant to be a natural laxative for humans who do not have a history of laxative dependence. I don't know that it will truly "clean out" your colon, but it should soften & bulk the stool and encourage natural gut motility! I hope that helps to answer your question, let me know if I can be more helpful! ❤
Me too, I know exactly how you feel. I am never able to go without using an irrigation system and even then it doesn’t always work. The pain at night time is almost unbearable.
Everyone's gut is so different, I find some people respond well to pairing this remedy with dinner and others do better taking it right before bed. You can always trial it at dinner time and see if it is effective for you ❤️ Wishing you the best!
I think rolling the instep of the soles off the feet on foot roller for five to ten minutes would guarantee you a soft stool in12 hours courtesy Accupressure. Thank you
Yes! For some people, coffee can be super helpful because the caffeine stimulates the GI system. However, coffee is also dehydrating (in that it is a diuretic/it makes you pee,) and dehydration can make constipation worse. So, if you are drinking coffee, make sure you are drinking water as well ❤
Hi Dr Tori. This was a very wonderful video as i also suffering with constipation ever since 2 years ago.I got it randomly once a month and the worse one for me is I've been constipated for three days straight. Which is not so normal for me, as i will poop everyday.I've never took laxatives before so in order to relief my constipation is by doing some yoga, and also been taking chia seed in my daily diet. But it works a bit slow. Is Chia seed/flax seed can help to relief constipation? Thank you for this video btw love you xx ❤
Hi! I am so sorry to hear about your experiences with constipation, but I love that you've been able to avoid laxatives and have had some success, although a bit slow, with yoga and chia seeds. Chia and flax seed can both be helpful for constipation relief in that they're excellent sources of fiber, which can help with stool consistency! Constipation is tricky in that its cause is unique for each person -- I love that you are trialing different techniques to manage it and figuring out what works for you. That's awesome! I wish you health and safety during this uncertain time 💕
Keep up the good work. Too many have experience constipation for weeks at a time and have to seek help in hosp emerg depts. My family doctor’s gen rule is 3 and 3: at min 3x per wk and max 3x per day but 1x per day is ideal. Stool should feel and look like a ripe banana 🍌. Best analogy. 😉✌️🌎
Aww man, you aren't the first to ask me this question but I'm not sure of a good, oat and gluten-free substitute! Hmm.. rice bran might do the trick! I wish I could be more helpful, and I hope you get to feeling better soon 🧡
Hi. About prune juice, do you know anything about its making? That is, when I watched your video, the prune juice you bought seemed more concentrated than the brand I buy. I buy Sunsweet brand. I'm curious to know if what I am buying might be more water than prune juice. And, if that makes a difference in its aid for constipation.
Great question! I'm not entirely sure about the Sunsweet brand vs. other brands, but I do tend to recommend organic over concentrate (it makes sense in my head that the more organic the juice, the more true prune juice it contains, the more effective it would be, although I've never tested this theory). I wish I could be more helpful! Hope you get to feeling better soon 🤗
I'm so glad you're getting over SIBO! That can be a really challenging condition, it must feel good to be so close to your healing! And that's a really good question; however, I cannot give individualized medical advice. If you're at all concerned about using this technique, I can only recommend following up with a provider who knows your past medical history that you trust. I wish I could be more helpful, and I hope you feel better soon 💛
Great content! I've started Linzess to control my constipation. Is it ok to use this a way to 'fine tune' my bowel movement interval? At Linzess' max dosage, I'm on a 12 hour bowel movement cycle, and at 145 mcg i'm 92 hour or so cycle. Or would just eating (separate servings) of applesauce , prune juice and oat brand work as well? FYI: My insurance (medicare) is paying for Linzess with pre-approval.
I'm so glad your insurance is paying for Linzess, it can expensive! I hope it works well for you 🤗 You can always trial this concoction and see if it helps you! Sometimes, when someone has a longstanding history of constipation, increased fiber and stool bulking techniques aren't as effective. But committing to a trial period and tracking your symptoms could help you figure out if your system responds well or if you're better off without it! Eating separate servings of the three ingredients is helpful, but they're more powerful together!
That is mostly true! Usually, the longer poop stays in the rectum, the harder it gets (the large intestine will actually pull it up, out of the rectum, take more water out of it, and then place it back into the rectum over time). Suppositories and enemas are more effective for stool that's already in the rectum, and stool softeners are more effective for stool that's still in the intestines!
@@PelvicEmpowerment It’s been a while and I have some pain in my lower abdomen. I recently had taken stool softeners but I still couldn’t go, I really was wasting my time haha. I know better now. I’ll save a little money and prevent softener dependency. I didn’t know the body will take out more water and make things worse. It’s shocking to hear. I’m so glad I found this. Thanks so much for the info!!!🙏❤️
@@seekingbella7734 You're so welcome! I'm sorry you had to go through so much trial and error, but I'm glad that you've learned so much about your body! I hope you get to feeling better soon ❤️
Excellent question! I do not have a natural remedy like this one, but if you're struggling with diarrhea, it may be helpful to get a pelvic physical therapist on your healthcare team! Have you ever heard of pelvic physical therapy? A good pelvic PT would be able to assess your pelvic floor, surrounding musculature, diet, and lifestyle habits to help tailor interventions that are suited to you and your unique GI system. If you live in the US, you can use this directory to find a provider near you: pelvicrehab.com Know that you are not alone in your experience, and that I'm wishing you the best in your healing ❤️
What do you recommend for my 7 yr old granddaughter that has been constipated since last December. She was learning potty but was scared to do potty training.
I really appreciate this request, thank you. I don't know as much about Parkinson's and pelvic health, but I do know that Parkinson's tends to lend itself to rigidity... I'd venture to guess that interventions related to helping the intestines move and relax would be the most helpful. Maybe intestinal massage and modified yoga positions would be a helpful place to start? Those paired with sitting on the toilet properly to poop. I think the intestinal massage likely wouldn't give those with Parkinson's a hard time; however, I do think the yoga positions and toilet positioning might need to be modified pending on the person's mobility restrictions. And that's okay! Just attempting to the best of the individual's ability comfortably would be better than not trying at all!
