i had a similar problem before, in which i would have a bowel movement about twice a week (i know, that was pretty bad!). you're supposed to have one 2-3 times a day, 30 minutes after every meal. i started eating only organic foods and am going a little more regularly now: once-twice a day. i suggest you try out 'dr. schulze's 5 day detox bowel' program. his website is herbdoc.com. his supplements contain nothing but organic and wild harvested herbs. good luck!

Believe it or not that is your problem..You are eating too much fiber. I have known one man that had to be operated on because of his breakfast intake of fiber. He was eating "whole wheat germ" like it was candy plus corn flakes by the box, and not to forget medamucil. (sp)..His colon was like cement, large colon, and small. They almost had to use a ";jack hammer", lol to clear him up..be very careful with laxatives, and fibre intake...Yes it was a major operation.
One of my two sons got on this health kick and is still on it. He gets his "Alternative" medication, and some food from the "Organic" store nearby. He lost about thirty pouinds and had serious cramps. He let them do a "clonic irrigation on him, and he was "colon packed" also. Has he changed? No. I believe in a healthy diet that I do not follow, but now their seven year old daughter has to take what is given to her. I believe all three would survive in the forrest on just bark, pine needles, nuts, berries, and drank the water treated with "iodine".

Drink at least 2litres of water a day as this helps to flush things through your system. If you have abdominal bloating and excessive gas, it may be a sign of Irritable Bowel Syndrome... If you've been constipated for longer than 5days go to your Doctor as soon as you can just to make sure everything's ok. Hope you feel ok soon.

you don;'t say your age or other potential medical issues - medications, daily activity etc. My Dr put me on Miralax for a similar problem.....AFTER checking out all other more sinister causes....works like a charm!
