It’s probably best if you aren’t eating for this one. So, put your fork down and get ready to find out how you can improve the all-too-common problem of constipation and start pooing regularly.Prior to meeting Emma, I actually wouldn’t go to the bathroom for 2-3 days at a time. I just thought this was normal (it’s not), and I see so many women having the same issue. But really, there’s nothing more satisfying than a good poo! You just feel lighter and less weighed down. There are also a heap of reasons why it’s important to go regularly.In this episode, we talk about:➡️ How constipation is linked to low metabolic function ➡️Why it’s important to have one or more bowel movements per day➡️What happens when you don’t go➡️Why common recommendations to improve constipation don’t actually fix the root cause ➡️Tips for improving digestion and eliminating constipation➡️What foods you should reduce➡️The importance of movement and sun for regular bowel movements➡️The special foods that can remove excess estrogen and endotoxins from the intestines and act like a scrubbing brush➡️Stress and how it affects your bowel movements and digestion➡️Using magnesium and cascara for constipationLINKSPurchase Cascara: https://www.saturee.com.au/collections/supplements/products/well-aged-cascaraFollow Kitty on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kittyblomfield/Follow Emma on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thenutritioncoach/ Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
