I know this isn’t exactly the sexiest topic to discuss, but it’s one of the most common problems amongmy patients, especially women. And it shouldn’t be ignored … I’m talking about constipation.
Not only is it simply annoying and uncomfortable when it happens from time to time … when it’s leftunchecked, chronic constipation can lead to more serious problems.Let’s face it … people always feelbetter when they have moved their bowels daily. And, from a medical perspective, daily bowelmovements are a necessity. It’s critical for removing toxins from the body and to help expel metabolicwaste. Including excess estrogen.
I firmly believe that one of the reasons so many women suff er from breast cancer is because many are chronically constipated. And this is just one of MANY potentialbenefi ts to regular bowel movements.
