Constipation
Posts to Ask Dr Stoll BB regarding Constipation.
There have been many posts to the Ask Dr Stoll
Bulletin Board (BB) regarding Constipation
Many of them have been archived here. The archive is roughly chronological and has been divided into pieces for quicker access. I hope you find it useful.
Summary discussion about constipation:
First, go to my article on the homepage about Stool Witholding and Constipation
in Children.
Although there are many causes for chronic constipation, this protocol will resolve the problem in adults as well-- while those causes are being discovered and dealt with. Nothing in this approach can harm anyone and causes no dependency. Once the causes are dealt with, the effective doses of fiber and mineral oil can be gradually reduced to nothing and the problem will not recur.
To get at the causes, any individual will need to put their problem on the Bulletin Board where communication back & forth will get at the causes OR at least tell us what would need to be done to finally pinpoint them.
For those who do not want to do this publically, go to the Health Coaching Protocol, linked on many pages, and see how it could be done privately.
For testimonials and common questions and answers, go to the archived notes below.
THEN, if you still have questions, put them on the bulletin board since others likely have them too.
