Chronic constipation is nearly the norm in modern societies. But, what exactly is constipation...how do we define it? con·sti·pa·tion| ˌkänstəˈpāSH(ə)n | noun * A condition in which there is difficulty in emptying the bowels, usually associated with hardened feces. * A high level of restriction; a pronounced lack of ease. Constipation is defined by transit time. Essentially from the time you ingest food until it comes out as stool should ideally be within 24-48 hours. Anything longer than that and you are constipated. Anything time shorter than that you may have Irritable Bowel Syndrome, which is a variation of constipation with the same treatment protocols. See the PDF below for a test to determine your transit time. Chronic constipation effects more than 20% of the US populations and is as common in children, teens adults and the elderly. For those who care for the elderly it is critical to pay daily attention to their bowel functions and seek professional help from someone who can bring a healthy solution to the problem. In my practice I have seen that MD's and Emergency Rooms are not equipped with a proper understanding to solve impaction or chronic constipation. They often recommend products that will cause the colon to balloon above the impaction with disastrous results!
