best drug for healthy bowel movements

Marijuana will aid a dysfunctional bowel immensely, aslong as you don't eat way too much when you get the munchies.
 
psyllium husk is brilliant - its non digestable fibre that bulks up anything your eating to make things erm... Firmer?

Those live yoghurt drinks seem to help a lot of people also - best advice is to keep a record of everything you eat for a few weeks. Then start to replace certain things - wheat - dairy - meat etc and see if you notice any difference.

Psyllium Husk...yes!

9 grams in the morning + 9 grams in the evening + 4 liters of water everyday = quick and easy bowel movement each and every morning between 6am and 8am. Like clockwork.
 
Dulcolax is my dooky maker of choice. One a day is all I need to stay regular.
 
"Digestive Enzymes are a god send for regularity and they're also cheap."
I second that ^

I highly reccommend probiotics for intestinal health as well. I use a brand called Primal Defense from Vitamin Shoppe, or Amazon!

An added bonus is the beneficial bacteria in probiotics destroy excess yeast.

I don't know, a lot of people (usually the detox bunch) claim this is healthy... I just don't buy it. The colon is designed to purge out feces and effectively cleanse itself (with the help of dietary fibre). Does it need anymore cleansing?
^^^^^^^^^
OK, the word "I don't buy it" makes me shriek! It is a personal opinion, and a joke and who ever advised you then with the cafeine topic also advised you now and he also uses such comments!...and being found wrong-I mean the one who took your throne in one of the forums!

The heart pumps blood but problems occur and does not do it.
The liver, the kidneys etc., all suppose to do their job effectively-but hey-even for people who eat and exercise effectively-shit happens-so I don't know where yuo are coming from when you say the colon is designed to pump out effectively. So many colon disorders occur for a reason and then it is too late, and only surgery is aceptable when in such advance stage.
Let's see, enemas were used for a reason, no?

Strictures occur everywhere. The colon is not straight! There are convolutions and old material petrifies in there. I don't know who advises you, but the detox people you are suggesting are not well imformed in this area.

Surgeons and regular doctors are not trained in the subject of mucoid plaque and therefore remain unaware of this important bowel condition. The mucoid plaque is usually less than one-fourth of an inch in many areas of the bowel (except in heavy meat and dairy eaters). It usually develops from a semi-transparent liquid solution (mucin) and may look like it is part of the intestinal wall itself as it takes on the exact shapes, striations, and bulges of the intestinal wall. Until the mucoid plaque begins to mix with fecal matter, its color and texture may appear similar to healthy bowel mucosa. Unless one knows what they are looking for, it may be difficult to identify, especially by sight. Therefore, to doctors using endoscopy and to surgeons, it is unnoticeable unless they are familiar with the many different appearances mucoid plaque may have.

The colon is approx. five to seven feet in length and should be about two inches in diameter. Elvis’s colon when he died, was at least three and a half inches in diameter in some places and as large as four and half to five inches in diameter in others. The megacolon was jam-packed from the base of the descending colon all the way up and halfway across the transverse colon. It was filled with white, chalklike fecal material.

It is possible for fecal matter to become impacted and lodge in the digestive system. In most cases, the colon tissues eventually stretch so that stool can push its way around the impacted matter and be evacuated.
If this condition continues too long, however, the colon can stretch to the point that ist nerves are no longer capable of receiving signals effectively, and the afflicted person loses voluntary control over the contraction of his bowel muscles and becomes incontinent.

When you use one of these machines, you see wht is coming out of your colon-through the clear glass tube, and I tell you it ain't pretty!

Remember one of the Gibb brothers who died, and they found his intestines were tied up in knots and adhisions everywhere. When they operated on him, for this, he had a heart attack and died on the operating table, and the other brothers were trying to sue the doctors.

I will just say, that you get your information from people who are experienced in this specific area-Cononics-and no other. Many so called professionals are ignorant outside the square they live in!!

There is a lot about the body they don't know and it is totally outside of their awareness because they feel themselves as Gods and know it all, and this is where they fail-utterly.

Check this link out for some imfo, and if you want more ask me!
I hope you open up and accept the information in!<3:D

Some herbal:

Although the specific ingredients in these products vary, they all contain some sort of laxative, be it a fibre blend or an extract of cascara sagrada bark, well known to stimulate intestinal contractions.

Classic fibres include psyllium husk, flax seed, fennel seed, slippery elm bark, apple pectin and guar gum. All of these can send you running in a hurry. And they are indeed prescribed for that very purpose by physicians. But problems can arise. Fibre absorbs water in the gut and sometimes can swell, making it difficult to expel. Usually this is prevented by drinking lots of water, which helps flush out the fibre before it has a chance to expand and form an intestinal blockage. In rare cases, with just the right (actually wrong) amount of water consumed, the mixture of fibres can be expelled as a long, stringy, slimy glop.

As we know, things do not always work as they are designed, or we do not always put the input it requires to function well. It's certainly ambitious to think that everything and anything you place in your mouth will come out a neat little fecal package and all, most especially if you eat a lot of refined products. The body is made very well, but it isn't magical.

My cousin is an oncologist and talks a lot about colons these days, as her mentor has just died of colon cancer. There is a lot of heavy putrefied material left in many digestive tracts.

When you have had a history of eating things that could have stopped up and putrefied in your tract, eating some dietary fiber can help of course. But sometimes these things adhere, and the digested food squeezes by them.

I myself have seen these chunks of black come out in the tubes of a colonic center from my boyfriend's treatments. They decreased with every session, and eventually the stuff coming out stopped being so dark and chunky. He has not changed his diet at all, but those never recurred. Of course I did not remove them and examine them, but I can draw some hypothesis from the experience.

There is also a good amount of mucus in (think of thickened saliva after eating something overly refined and sweet, and think this goes all through your digestive tract). While your body can deal with small amounts, typically we humans reach a certain type of diet where the body needs extra help. Teas, greens, hot water help. Think of a sink with gunk lining it.

(I often observe my dog to have much mucus in his stool when I leave him with my stepmother, who feeds him a lot of carbs to "fill him up". He gets insane bad breath. To remedy this, we feed a lot of bones which probably are his fiber counterpart. His stool normalizes and his breath stops stanking.)

a lot of people overlook another facet that's critical to going regularly: SLOWING THE FUCK DOWN WHEN EATING. almost everyone i know wolfs their whole lunch down in less than fifteen minutes. that just ain't healthy. your food doesn't pass inspection at digestion checkpoint #1 like that, unless the people i know have blender blades hidden under their tongues that pop out to liquify the food when they close their mouths. let's hope i never end up getting a blowjob from one of THEM.

well, chewing everything properly works great for me. as does eating a bunch of cayenne pepper and ye ol exercise. and i've tried one of those colon cleanse pills designed to push the "black stuff" out (i was curious) and none did come out so i'm assuming that proper chewing is what keeps undigested shit from setting up base in the bowels.
 
try yerba mate, its healthy in the first place and the xanthines and fiber will get you moving good, first cup almost always sends me to the water closet if its strong and i havent shat yet

senna is also good

probiotics are also very useful, try kefir and kombucha i prefer kombucha

tobacco is also very useful for teh poops


but just make sure you eat a diet with a lot of fiber (whole grains, fruits, veggies) and not too much meat and especially not too much dairy


^ follow above advice and you will be set brother

+1 . Man, I'm going for a colonic reaaal soon :D It's been a while. Someone should resurrect the colon cleanse thread.

I've often contemplated this as I feel I might have a lot of waste built up from prolonged opioid useage. You didn't feel like it was worth it PI? I know it's not a comfortable experience, but the negatives outweigh the postives?
 
^I think the positives far outweigh the initial discomfort of a colonic. I just feel totally cleaner and lighter afterwards, and I am more inclined to eat healthier too so I dont gunk up my system (by healthier, I mean not eat too much red meat, you'd be amazed how much beef clogs up the colon and is typically so difficult to digest....) Anyway I think you'll love this article. I'm repasting it from the other colonic thread. ;)

NEW YORK - COLONICS

We had colonics yesterday. Can you say, "Life-changing epiphany"? Wow. From now on it's a living foods diet, oxygen supplements, and Hatha yoga daily. The best thing about a colonic is...

Just kidding! Fuck living foods and yoga. Colonics are fun though.
We had to go to a super fancy Upper East Side salon. It was one of those two-story haircutting, massage, and aromatherapy castles where rich, bored housewives try and think of new shit to put in their hair to make it healthier. The large gay man behind the reception desk told us to go to the men's dressing room and change, which means that after we got into our big, puffy, white ladyrobes we had to come back down through the entire salon to get back to the waiting area. New levels of shame.
After a brief and very tense wait (it felt like sitting in the dentist's office), a rail-thin Teutonic woman poked her head out from the back of the salon and beckoned us in.
Here is how a colonic goes...
First, you take your robe off and put it on backwards so your ass is hanging out. Then you get up onto a massage table that has a diaper-pad thing taped to the general area over which your sphincter will soon be hovering. You lay on your side facing away from your German colonic-giver and she says, "This will feel a little funny." Then she shoves a greased-up hose into your rectum. It doesn't hurt at all. It is very fucking weird (weird times infinity) but it doesn't hurt. Next, you have to shift back over so that you are on your back. That part is kind of scary because it feels like if you slip and put too much weight on the hose that's protruding from your a-hole, you'll force it way further up there, thus anally raping yourself and puncturing your colon or prostate or whatever it is that sits right inside the back door.
Once you're on your back, your German lady will start gently massaging your stomach and your right leg. Then she will turn on the water. You kind of expect to get slammed up the ass with a jet like a southern cop would spray from a firehose onto a civil rights activist in the '60s, but at first you won't feel a thing. That's because you are SLOWLY filling up with water. The pressure grows and, all of a sudden, you have to take the biggest shit of your life. Or at least it feels that way. Right when you are about to shriek, "Get this fucking hose out of me!!" she releases the water and what feels like 20 pints of waste whooooooshes out of you all at once. The feeling of relief is fucking immense.
There is a little machine against the wall that controls the water flow and gets rid of the waste. It has a window where you can watch what just came out of you shoot by at the speed of light. The first load looked like black milk with chunks of candy bar in it. It was... pretty gross. And pretty amazing. Unfortunately, the little shit-window is brightly back-lit and it was neigh-on impossible to get a photo with actual feces in the frame. Oh well.
It goes on like that for a while: water in until you feel like the fat guy at the end of Monty Python's Meaning of Life, then *click* and a ton of shit blasts out. At this point you will be thinking, "I got this. Colonics are a cinch."
But wait. The water has not yet reached the point of your colon that you will come to call the "hidden shelter of everything that is bad." All the toxins, sad memories, wrong decisions, and regrettable indiscretions from your whole life prior to your colonic live there. These things do not want to get flushed out of you. So they fight. You start to sweat, dig your fingernails into your palms, and curse under your breath. The weirdest part is that this is the portion of the colonic where one of us (OK, it was me) started to get a hard-on. I don't know what it was about the combo of a German lady rubbing my stomach, warm water being pumped up my ass, and the demons of my past flying around the room like those things that come and get you when you die in that movie Ghost, but there it was: incipient boner. I was actually glad for it, because concentrating on making it go back down took my mind off the LSD-freakout levels of anxiety I was undergoing.
Then the bad stuff passed, just like that. Once that happens, you are nearing the end. The little shit-window looks like water with just an eyedropper of Guinness in it. A few more flushes in and out, then she just pops the hose out of your ass with zero pomp and circumstance. You get ushered into the next room, where there is a toilet, and you're told to sit on it. Your German lady says, "Some people now will expel not so much. Others will have a larger bowel movement." What really happens is you feel like you're taking the most fulfilling shit in history, but then when you proudly spring up and look into the bowl, there is nothing there but brown water. Weird.
That's about it. Go upstairs, change into your clothes, and take a breath mint from the little jar on the counter. You have now had your first colonic. You feel light as air and totally high. You don't ever want to eat a cheeseburger again. You are now officially a fan of colonics. All hail butt blasting!

^LOL I remember reading that somewhere. I do eat a lot of heavy foods for weight lifting purposes, but also abused painkillers=not a good combo for having a clean body. I'm seriously considering this option. Thanks Maria
 
I went with my then boyfriend now hubby. He was constipated from Effexor. Once we were in that stage of discussing fecal habits, I discovered he went 2-3 times a week and it was rough going. He suggested a colonic but was afraid to go alone. I went along for the ride.

The discomfort of having a tube up my arse and the water in my intestines was tolerable. I am used to having a larger things in there ;) I felt no difference after having it done twice (once a month) nor did I weigh any less...which is what I was hoping for at the time. My husband felt better for a few days. He did not feel it was worth the monthly visit for such short term results.

The guy tried to sell me on a liver cleanse. He was pushy. He noted that I must eat a lot of dairy as there was mucous coming out. Uhm no buddy, my husband ejaculated in my ass 24 hours ago.

My husband has a bowel movement daily and it is a lot easier. We changed our diet (high fiber, high protein, complex carbs, min processed foods, nothing artificial, lots of water) and exercise regime a couple of years ago. That is what helped him.

We eat red meat perhaps 4-5 times a year.

I usually eat it 2-3 times a day. Time to take the asshole by the carwash
 
^^TBH, red meat would be the last thing I'd worry about giving me cancer. Watch it be exactly that which takes me down. Woudldn't that be a bitch. :\

Best thing..

I eat a mainly fruity, beany, leafy diet, but still get colonics or the occasional enema. It's no biggie for me culturally

My grandparents used enemas (followed by juice of pounded yam leaves and fermented vegetables, which give enzymes) when they had bouts of headaches and spotty skin. Worked all the time, according to them. However, they also knew that ultra regular enemas were harmful. So they had to maintain a good diet and exercise had to be practiced because they couldn't go beyond the recommended frequency of enemas.

I don't think people should go into colonics expecting to be the epitome of good health the next day. The lifestyle steps PI suggested are far more important. Colonics and constipation drugs only help you get a head start. On the other hand, when you finish a round of colonics and return to a sludgy diet (where you don't chew your food well, that input was also important), you are just dropping yourself at the foot of the mountain again.

Something I read somewhere is very important to consider in light of this thread: It is the things that you eat/do everyday that can make you sick in the long run, not the things you eat/do once in awhile (unless they cause very high toxicity).

A good lifestyle is better for the colon than any drug or procedure. Just like keeping your room clean through a good everyday system is better than living in a pigsty you clean once a year.
