Health Starts Where It Ends...

Constipation is one of the most intractable and unpleasant lifestyle disorders facing Westerners. It starts shortly after the birth at a 3% rate,  exceeds 50% by the age 50, and reaches over 90% by the age 80. It would be easy to dismiss as a mere nuisance if not for one undisputable fact — constipation-related complications are behind practically all of the age-onset colorectal disorders, ranging from enlarged hemorrhoids to colon cancer, and everything in between.

Constipation rarely happens out of the blue in otherwise healthy adults. It is usually preceded by decades of semi-regular stools that are either too large, or too hard, or both. These abnormal stools cause gradual nerve damage and enlargement of the colon, rectum, and hemorrhoidal pads until one day the bowels refuse to move as was meant by nature — once or twice daily, usually after a meal, and with zero effort or notice.

Author's note

The information on this site complements and expands the content of Gut Sense and Fiber Menace. Both books evolved from my extensive research in the field of forensic nutrition. Unlike orthodox nutrition, which studies and promotes 'health food,' forensic nutrition studies why people get sick and die from a presumably 'healthy' diet.
