Do you have a dustbin at home? Imagine throwing your
leftover food such as chicken bones and banana skin in the dustbin.
Then close and leave it there. On the next day, continue to throw
in more leftover food. Do this for one week without emptying the
dustbin.
What do you think will happen?
Do you smell something from the
dustbin? Do you see tiny worms crawling around the dustbin? How about
cockroaches? Now imagine what happens when you have constipation
for a few days.
Your feces in your intestine are like the
rubbish in your dustbin. You must poop every day. Just like clearing
the rubbish every day.
If you keep your feces for an extra day...
harmful bacteria in your intestine will have more time to multiply.
Your immune system has to work harder to control those germs. And your
liver has increased burden of detoxifying the toxins produced by these
harmful bacteria. You will have a weaker body and you get tired easily.
What if the same feces stay in your body for 3 days, 5 days and even one week? Imagine the strain you put onto your body!
If
you don’t clear out your dustbin for one week, you will be busy wiping
away those crawling worms around the dustbin. And I bet you can’t stand
those stinking smell! If you still keep the rubbish for a few more
weeks, everyone living there will get sick.
Knowing your inside from the outside
By now, you know how terrifying it is to live with stinking rubbish.
However, if you have constipation for a few days, you may not feel
disgusting on the outside. Your feces are inside. So you don’t see it
and you can’t smell it.
Fortunately,
there are some ways to know what is happening inside your body when you
cannot see it. Is it possible? Well, here are the symptoms that show
your intestine’s terrible condition.
When you fart, everyone around you faints
When your house has a two-week rubbish and you suddenly open the back
door, people standing outside will get the bad smell. So they know your
rubbish is ‘overdue’.
When you open your mouth, everyone around you cover their nose with their hand.
And those who are afraid to hurt you will stop breathing for as long as
possible. There are many causes for bad breath. And one of them is long
term constipation. Now your rubbish at the back kitchen is so smelly.
When you open your front door, people standing outside can smell it too.
Your face is full of pimples or acne
Your large intestine stores your feces. But when you keep your feces
for too long, more toxins are released. Your small intestine above your
large intestine absorbs nutrients. It will then absorb some of the
toxins back into the blood stream. And when these toxins arrive at your
face, you will have lots of pimples or acne.
In
another words, toxins from your feces are now expelled out through your
face! All this is because you don’t poop every day. Besides your face,
if the toxins reach your uterus, you may get abnormal uterus growth or
tumor. That’s why women with constipation are prone to have uterus
tumor.
You get angry easily
If you have
a few dustbins full of stinking rubbish in your house, can you live in
peace? Can you still lie on the couch and enjoy your favorite TV show?
When you have constipation for a few days, you tend to get angry easily
over tiny matter. Your body energy seems to be disrupted when you have
poor bowel movement.
Good and Bad Feces
Now you understand the importance of pooping every day. Do you know
what the ideal feces are? "Huh? I thought it is fine if I poop every
day. The condition of my feces is important too?"
Yes of course! Remember, you can know your intestine condition by examining your feces. 'Good quality' feces are:
- Not smelly
- Light brown in color
- Soft but not watery
- Long and thick
Just
like a banana with different color. And when you clean your anus with
toilet paper, there should be very little or no stain at all. So, you
only need one piece of toilet paper.
If you need five, ten or
more pieces of toilet paper, that is not a good sign. And if your feces
are the opposite as the one described above, that is not a good sign
either.
The main reason for these conditions is unbalanced
bacteria ecology in your intestine. Harmful bacteria significantly
outnumber beneficial bacteria. In the long run, it may lead to all
sorts of intestinal problem including colon cancer.
Prolong
constipation also causes more accumulated feces in the intestine wall.
And your large intestine may become contracted at certain point. This
causes tiny and short feces.
In conclusion, the best thing
you can do for a healthy, vibrant and energetic life... is to poop
every day. And make sure your feces is a 'high quality' one. Related link

day was normal, i knew that poop is toxic, but what I didnt know is
the actual stress it can put on your body! Thanks for the info.
you need to post somewhere else. I have colon cancer now because after I had given birth to my third child c-section I had a hard time going
to have a stool. I swear that all I write is true! I went six months
without having a stool. It was only every other week that my body
would let me and it was me trying to go and push until It was an hour
later and I was sweating and crying and bleeding. My stomach hurt so
bad that I would roll around in tears and feel what I can only say
would be a knife in my stomach area just twisting. I had the worst
odor in my mouth and yes the most nasty hurtful burps ever. This is a
very important issue. I waited to long. I now have cancer and have to
deal with alot more things. I would take every over the counter
medicine you can think of. People stay away from x-lax. That medicine
makes you stop going if it is a cronic problem. I had to use Miralax
mixed with Gatorade. And it was 238grms mixed with 63 oz of the
gatorade. I had to use that three times just to get cleaned for my
colonoscopy. I am very young, only 26. with a great husband and we
have three kids together and I have to worry about cancer because I
didn't know how important it really was not to get backed up. Please
talk to your doctors right away!!!! And for anyone else, don't say
anything if you don't have nice things to say. Grow up!!!!!!!!!
I'm trying to say.
I'll remind myself that those days are nothing special to me.
I have an awful problem with pooping though too. I definitely don't go everyday, but more about 2 - 4 maybe 5 times in a month. About a week or two ago I did go once everyday but I think that was more so because when I went the first day, not all of it released, if you know what I mean.
This is how it's always been though, and I am on the underweight side and have a crappy eating style too. I'm betting that as I get older it will indeed change.
With that, I have to run to the 'room XD
I'll be 41 next month. I've been going once per day about 95% of the time over the course of several years. I'd rather it be 100% of the time though because whenever a rare day comes that i cant go for whatever reason,i definately feel less healthy and more irritable. the high majority of the time,i poop early and thats the best. You get it over with and you feel free the rest of the day. On a side note,over the course of the last year or so,i am very sore after i wipe,but i have to wipe alot(12-18 times).So,thereafter,i have to lay on my stomach for 20 minutes before the soreness goes away. it would be much better if i didnt have to wipe so much. I've been recently thinking how great it'd be if i had a bidet so i dont have to wipe until i become all sore up there. Btw,My diet is pretty darn good overall and i exercise/workout regularly.
For years ive been pooping 1-2times a day! But this past year i am loosing weight may be Iam wrong but I feel like anything i eat comes out. Wht should I do? Last week i found online a healthy diet to gain weight so now i am trying to eat 4 meals a day but since i started this diet I am going more to the bathroom and it's watery. I am so skinny right now.
I'm a bit of a clean freak and this feels like it's ruining my life...
Is this a mental condition or is it something unique to me? What should I do? Any advice would be wonderful.
Thanks.
And don't worry if your poop isn't exactly what is described as "perfect" or if you have to wipe more than once - we're each of us different. If you're getting sufficient fiber, water and exercise, don't worry too much.
I used to go pretty much every day and now I go once or twice a week. This all started when I moved in with my boyfriend.
I wonder if the 2 could be related. I was diagnosed with ibs 2 years ago and the doctor said it was stress related. But anyone I know who has ibs has the opposite problem when they're stressed.
My sister only goes once a week but she says that's normal for her.
Since I was in a boarding school, I'd repress my urge to go for weeks... Even now, I cant use the bathroom at work or even on a long flight. If I wanted to go, I'd just take orange juice and pulp- which seemed to work for me until recently.
In the past year, I noticed that I've been getting a lot acne and nothing seems to be working, not even dermatologist's prescription. My irregular bowel movement is still same. Even fruits and vegetables that used to work dont anymore.
I wonder if some of us are just meant to have irregular BM... cos Im normal weight, my body is usually fine until about 5-7 days when i realize I havent gone...then i have serious acne which had never been a problem before...
Get lots of RIPE fruit ,Deep Green veg , Water all day , and movement .
Just taking the stairs and drinking water can make bad bowels better .
Sitting at a desk job or couch surfing with with out standing/moving breaks is a great way to shut down your digestion and have impacted hard poop . Walking helps like a pumping action for poop. Fruit and Veg are the bulk and fiber ,and more Water to move it through .
though i have to admit, when i was little i didn't ... until i started forcing myself to do it in the morning when i woke up and when i went to bed even if i didn't have to go. I just kinda started a routine and after that my body just sorta adjusted and i wasn't so constipated any more XD lol awful childhood memories of sitting in the loo with all your cousins waiting outside really needing to go XD
i also found that when i became more active like walking more, etc, i pooped more regularly lol so its not just what you eat ;)
Its all relative to how one defines good health of course but, 3 times a week is not enough, and defines constipation by the definition of truly healthy people.
