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.
