The human bowel system is like the sewer system – if the sewers get clogged, the waste backs up and spills into the house. If your bowels are not moving, all the toxins and waste products of daily living remain and recirculate in your body, leading to disease.
Regular, frequent, and complete bowel movements are necessary for optimum, long, healthy and productive life.
Constipation is difficulty in passing stools or passes once in 2 / 3 days. It generally means passing fewer than three stools a week or having a difficult time passing stool. With constipation there is trouble emptying the bowels, and stools become dry, burnt, large and hard – difficult to push out and forcing you to strain.
Even ineffectual urge or a sensation of incomplete or unsatisfactory stools can be termed as constipation.
If you have constipation, food may move too slowly through the digestive tract. This gives the colon more time – too much time – to absorb water from the waste.
The hardened mass gets stuck and causes a blockage.
COMMON CAUSES OF CONSTIPATION
- Physical inactivity / sedentary lifestyle
- Emotional problems i.e., stress, tension etc.
- Side effects of certain medications such as antacids, calcium or iron supplements, anticholinergics, anticonvulsants, narcotics like codeine, oxycodone, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, like ibuprofen, and naproxen,; antidepressants, including selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors or tricyclic antidepressants and diuretics.
- Certain Illnesses – digestive tract diseases.
- Injury to intestines
- Prolonged blood and fluids deficiency
- Inappropriate, unhealthy, fibre deprived diet
- Dehydration – lack of adequate water (tea, coffee, alcohol, fizzy drinks are all dehydrating)
- Physical blockage of intestinal tract
- Thyroid or hormonal problems
- Inadequate bile release
- The way you eat – less chewing
- Imbalance in intestinal / gut flora
- Magnesium deficiency
- Bad toilet habits
- Jet lag and frequent traveling.

The psychological aspect of constipation should be considered as well. Part of the key to solving chronic constipation problems is to decrease the sense of worry and anxiety that surrounds the issue.
If constipation occurs along with diarrhoea, keep an eye out for signs of food allergies, sensitives or reactions to medications. These can include signs of malnutrition, painful abdominal swelling, skin rashes, a fever, fatigue and aches.
