Calcium and Constipation
How to Get Relief

There is a link between calcium and constipation.

It has not been scientifically proven yet, but doctors are getting more and more patients that are having trouble.

In today's world with processed food in almost every home, we have to pay attention to what we eat and what supplements we take.

The more natural of a diet you eat, the healthier you will be, and the fewer instances of constipation you will run into.

If you're taking a calcium supplement and suspect that it might be causing constipation, read on!

How to Remedy the Situation

There are many things you can try that might give you constipation relief. Here are a few tips that I've found have a high chance of working.

1. Split Them Up
   If you're taking your calcium supplement in one big dose everyday, try splitting it up into two or three doses. Your body will not absorb large doses as efficiently as small doses anyway, so you might as well!
   
   
2. Switch to Calcium Citrate
   What kind of calcium are you taking? Is it calcium carbonate? If so, it has been known to cause constipation far more often than other forms of calcium, experts are not sure why this is. Try switching to calcium citrate, it seems to be easier on the intestines and less likely to cause constipation.
   
   
3. Get Your Calcium from Nature
   Start eating foods that contain a lot of calcium instead of taking a supplement everyday. Your body will absorb nature's own foods better and you can most likely say goodbye to constipation.

Foods High in Calcium

The best way to get all of your vitamins and minerals is from regular food. Your body will absorb it better and nutrients tend to have a stronger effect when they work together.

For example, fruits and vegetables contain a multitude of different vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, phytonutrients and all kinds of other stuff that researchers haven't even discovered yet.

Here is a list of foods that are high in calcium...

1. Cheese
2. Almonds
3. Sesame seeds
4. Skim milk
5. Low-fat yoghurt
6. Tofu
7. Broccoli
8. Oranges
9. Cabbage
10. Kale
11. Navy beans
12. White beans

The recomended daily intake for calcium is around 1,000 mg and 1,200 mg for people 51 years and older.

Eliminate Constipation Naturally

One of the best ways to eliminate constipation and keep your body healthy is to do a colon cleanse.

Colon cleanses can be done by just eating a strict healthy diet, or going on a juice fast.

You can also buy a professionally made herbal colon cleanse, which has been formulated to effectively eliminate constipation, toxins, and alleviate a host of other problems.

I've done a lot of research on the best colon cleansers out there. There are a lot of bad products available. The one I recommend right now is the DrFloras colon cleanse.

They even offer a long money-back guarantee in case it doesn't work for you.

I'm very careful with what I recommend. I've done a lot of research into colon cleansers, and I only recommend the ones that use 100% natural ingredients, are safe, and effective, which is why I think you will really like DrFloras.
