Even if you've been living with constipation for what seems like forever, it is possible to heal it, and Listen To Your Colon can show you how. In this important book, colon and bowel syndrome expert Jini Patel Thompson shares her innovative and effective natural remedies for both the short-term relief and the long-term resolution of chronic constipation. She also offers natural remedies for the troublesome conditions that often accompany constipation, such as hemorrhoids, rectal or anal stricture, or rectal and anal fissures. Jini's emphasis is on natural, holistic healing to address the root cause of a symptom, rather than merely suppressing it. The goal of holistic healing is not to take herbal supplements to suppress your symptoms (the same way drugs do), but rather to heal the imbalance or disease in your body that is causing the constipation. Were you aware that long-term laxative use trains your colon's peristaltic mechanism (rhythmic contractions of the intestinal wall) to switch off, and can also damage bowel nerves, muscle and tissues? Or that, if medication is contributing to your constipation problem, fiber supplements may actually make the problem worse rather than helping?Did you know that there are actually two different types of constipation?Jini Patel Thompson calls them Peristaltic Constipation and Stenosis Constipation. She helps you identify which one you have and then guides you through the different treatment protocols for each. This innovative and informative book helps you identify the components and causes behind your constipation (medications, dehydration, poor diet, stress, anal stenosis, trauma, mineral and nutrient deficiency, a lack of healthy bacteria in your gut, poor bowel habits, etc.), and then shows you exactly what to do to balance and heal your unique body. Jini also takes you through the multiple factors that contribute to a healthy functioning bowel, and teaches you how to address each of these factors in your life. Here are just some of the natural treatments detailed in this book:Herbal colon cleansingEnema colon flushingTherapeutic probiotics and probiotic retention enemaWild oregano oil to clear parasites, yeast, fungus, etc. Spastic colon factors and treatmentMagnesium/potassium to relax the sphincter musclesColonic massage to help your colon have a bowel movementPsyllium and aloe mixture to soften and bulk stoolsFissureHeal and HemorrHeal for anal fissures or hemorrhoidsThe mind/body connection with constipation; how your stress and emotions influence biochemical responses in your gut that can slow down (or speed up) gut motility and peristalsis (the rhythmic, muscular contractions of your intestines)Dietary guidelines for using food to prevent constipation and keep your bowel healthyIf you've been suffering from daily discomfort due to constipation, it's understandable that you're in a hurry to have it go away - and the sooner, the better!
