Many can’t tolerate caffeine either and decaf is worse for you due to chemicals. Also most w/chronic constipation have other GI issues and very sensitive to coffee.
I’ve just come across your channel and I’ve learned quite a bit. Thank you for that :) Would you consider doing a video on SIBO/IMO and abdominal adhesions being the cause? I have adhesions from abdominal surgery that then caused fecal loading in my intestines(every day since Oct 14, 2020) which then caused IMO, gastroparesis, every.one.of my pelvic floor organs to prolapse, hiatal hernia, and LPR/esophageal laryngitis. The drain tube from surgery also caused Candida. They can’t figure out the motility, so they can’t repair the hernia nor the prolapses bc it’d be pointless. There’s a 60% chance of needing my v***** sewn shut in order to treat the prolapses. I’m 51 :( Desperately searching for resolution.
Looking for where to get Bifidobacterium lactis Hn019 as a single strain. trying to avoid lots of extra probiotics due to MCAS and histamine intolerance and past SIBO history. Any help would be appreciated!!
CanPrev has one called « Bowel Transit » which is just that strain. The packaging looks similar to their multi strain (« Bowl Transit » comes in a box, not a bottle). Can find in health food stores and online.
I think you need to make it clear to viewers that you're providing general information & are not diagnosing anyone or telling people directly what to supplement with nor are you willing to do so unless they are your patient. You aren't answering people who are telling you their specific symptoms & wanting advice. This isn't a great result & it would be helpful if you made a clear disclaimer at the beginning of your videos. Also as an aside, you quoted the saying that nigella sativa can cure everything but de*th. Well you're wrong because I've been taking it & I'm still here. So obviously it works. 😂
Excellent tips. Succinct and easy to incorporate. Exercise, movement; and staying hydrated have been especially helpful to me when constipated. Tho' one of my go-to herbs (lately) has been ginger. It's a miracle worker as far as improving bowel motility goes. Thank you for your recommendations! ❤🥰🙏
@@ByronHerbalist I'm thinking possibly -- best travel tips for those of us struggling with a range of GI issues. Traveling can be kind of stressful and it can have us "out of sorts" and irregular. I usually have to bring a small arsenal of supplies to best help support my gut (when on travel) and dealing with a different routine and food options. Maybe that could be an area of interest to cover. 😊
Do the flax seeds need to be soaked before consuming so that they are more lubricating or does putting unsoaked ones in a smoothie lubricate them enough?
@@valeriewestphal2507 I have used cascara sagrada for many years off and on, sometimes every day. I never seemed to get dependent on it, I recently did a 6 day water fast and had a couple of months off working and my BMs became super consistent.
@@valeriewestphal2507 There's more to it than just the senna. I was using cascara on and off for many years, sometimes every day. I recently took a couple of months of working, did a 6 day fast and began walking a lot- my BMs became super consistent.
Thank you so much for this video! I really appreciate the details you shared about taking magnesium oxide in the evening, on an empty stomach and why that matters. These kind of details are really important. And thanks for sharing about maca, I did not know about that. Glad to hear hemp seeds and chia are helpful, I have been using them semi-regularly when I make smoothies.
@ByronHerbalist yeah I'm the same but I've been expanding my diet slowly with small amounts so my body tolerates it. It's definitely helped my constipation but still need to loose the reflux.
That sounds like a very specific diagnosis on your part. If you have past experience of this you know you need a doctor, not a herbalist. Get an appointment or get yourself to A&E if you can't
@@humanresetproject This person is not talking about impacted stool in the large bowel which is common. The concern is small bowel which is a whole different ballgame & needs proper investigation. No one recommends coffee suppositories/enemas anymore, they're dangerous.
