Want to eliminate constipation? A precise blend of dietary fiber, herbs, and digestive enzymes to promote regularity and quickly eliminate constipation.
A healthy gut and regularity are so very important to your overall health, mood, and quality of life. Ideally, you should experience a bowel movement at every meal. The healthy transit time through the large intestine is around 30 - 40 hours.
Healthy transit time means food stays long enough in your large intestine for nutrients to get absorbed and your gut bacteria to create healthy metabolites. However, too long transit time means the gut content can start putrefying or waste substances can get reabsorbed.
Herbal power flush contains an herbal blend that promotes digestive regularity and healthy transit time.
People who don’t eliminate well tend to become moody, feel bloated, backed up, or irritable. By promoting digestive regularity and cleansing the colon, Herbal Power Flush may relieve these symptoms.
The psyllium fiber in Herbal Power Flush is a type of soluble fiber that bulks up the stool and feeds the good gut bacteria. A placebo-controlled study (using 7 - 21 grams of psyllium) found that psyllium fiber improved the gut microbiome in constipated people. It also increased bacteria species that increase water in the stool.
FA 2016 study in Nature Microbiology found that constipated people have more unhealthy bacterial metabolites in their urine than non-constipated people, suggesting that their gut re-absorb these bacterial waste products. Longer transit time is associated with more protein fermentation and thus the increase of protein products in the urine.
Bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates and fibers usually generate healthy metabolites, whereas fermentation products of proteins tend to be toxic. For example, some variants of the amino acid tryptophan are associated with inflammation and neurological problems.
These studies are all “associations” so we can’t yet claim that fixing constipation will address these health issues. However, reducing the absorption of toxic bacterial products by promoting regularity is good for long-term health.
Some of your used up steroid hormones are converted in your liver and eliminated via secretion into your gut along with the bile. Then, once your gut content reaches the large intestine, your microbiome takes over and metabolizes these used up molecules.
Longer transit time may allow these molecules or the more harmful (sometimes cancer-causing) versions of hormones to get reabsorbed into the bloodstream.
Promoting regularity may not be sufficient to rebalance hormones. However, given that the gut is also the hormone metabolism factory, it is critical to ensure that you’re eliminating well to balance your hormones.
A colon cleanse may not directly help with weight loss, other than the weight of the feces itself. However, there are a few ways that a colon cleanse may support the overall weight loss effort in combination with diet and exercise.
Some constipated patients have more of the group of bacteria called Firmicutes, which are associated with weight gain and the microbiome that can better extract energy from food.
Also, promoting healthy elimination may improve your overall mood, energy levels, and hormone balance, which are beneficial for weight loss.
