Hi John
This past July some out of town friends came in to visit me, one of whom I hadn't seen in a few years (Roxanne).
I noticed her putting her hand on her stomach now and then as if it hurt, but I didn't say anything.
I didn't think it was the dinner I served Saturday night--everyone else gobbled down the grilled organic chicken breasts, grilled broccoli and asparagus, and lettuce wedge salads with blue cheese and no one complained of stomach aches!
Roxanne and I were the first ones up on Sunday morning and went out on the deck to sip our tea.
Then she came out with it.
"You know, Sherry, I hate to be gross, but I have been so freaking constipated for the last few years I don't know what to do anymore. It's getting worse and worse. If I go every 4 days, that's a lot."
Holy cow!
Then she went on to say, "What makes it even worse is I get cramps, bloating and terrible gas. I can't even button my pants some days because I'm so bloated. And forget putting on a bathing suit!
I asked her what she's done about it so far.
She said she tried to eat more fiber, but that didn't help much.
She also mentioned that laxatives helped in the beginning, but not any more. She said over the last 24 hours she had taken Dulcolax and Miralax like candy and STILL hadn't gone yet.
Holy $#*% Batman!
Here is what I told Roxanne:
The lowdown on trouble down low
It's estimated that constipation affects more than 65 million people in the US alone, and annual laxative sales are over $1 billion.
To handle our demand for relief is 700 different varieties of OTC and prescription laxatives. 700!
Obviously they are not the answer. Because if any of them worked well without "issues," would we need so many?
Another, better question is why are we so blocked up to begin with?
The answer is twofold:
1- Eating for constipation
The typical "modern" diet most people have is VERY hard to digest. The human body was not designed to ingest most of the crap you see on grocery store shelves. 99% of that stuff can be categorized as waste.
Hey, I just thought of a new product... "Tasty Wasties!"
And what they create on the way out is "Nasty Wasties!" As in toxic.
When most of your foods are forced to sit in your stomach for for hours, causing your stomach to overproduce acid just to break them down, but they still aren't like they should be, the end products of digestion (your feces) get hard and don't move along like they're supposed to...
...and you get pain, gas, bloating and grunting (oh, and sometimes hemorrhoids too). And nasty, hard bowel movements.
It matters not that you've tried a "magic bullet" like an apple, prunes or some other high fiber food.
Because when the vast majority of what you eat can't be digested properly, those prunes are useless and usually just add to your gas emissions.
So out come the big guns...
The laxatives.
But that's only a temporary fix. Sure, nature might call pretty quickly afterward, but you're doing nothing to address the main underlying cause of your constipation.
And that can lead to...
2- Laxative overuse
When you use laxatives to have bowel movements, things may seem fine at first...
But all the while you're weakening your intestinal muscles so they are less able to work like they should to move wastes along.
So this eventually makes your constipation even WORSE.
And you can become dependent on laxatives...some people are SO dependent that they can't have a bowel movement without them!
That's what was happening to Roxanne. The laxatives did the trick at first, but now her body was dependent on them and her intestinal muscles were getting "lazy."
That's why she was able to down enough laxatives to choke a horse and STILL didn't go.
Ending constipation without medication
If you want REAL, long-lasting constipation relief without laxatives, then you need to get to the bottom (no pun intended) of your constipation.
It's easy to do.
It's not as simple as just eating more fiber, fruits and veggies.
A lot of people have tried that. A lot have failed.
You also MUST eat foods that play nice together in your stomach.
When you do, your foods are broken down like they need to be when they enter the intestines. Plus, the alkaline foods you've eaten provide added water and fiber to help move things along.
Result: Normal, easy, regular bowel movements. No grunting.
And no more money spent on expensive & dangerous laxatives.
When you follow my advice in the Great Taste No Pain health system, eating to end constipation is a breeze.
In the Great Taste No Pain manuals, I spell out EXACTLY what you should eat with each kind of food, so your wastes will exit "stage rear."
I'll show you which foods are acid-forming and which are alkaline, so you'll know the important "anti-constipation" foods to be sure to include in your diet. You'll know what to eat with what...nothing is left out.
And for you cooks, the recipe book is loaded with mouth-watering, gourmet tasting yet easy to make recipes that will make your tongue dance.
Don't forget the little guys
Not only does constipation make you bloated, gassy and miserable, but having a bunch of "poop" stuck in your intestines also wreaks havoc on your intestinal flora.
This leads to a vicious cycle because, since the friendly bacteria in your intestines help with digestion, when they're overcome by harmful bacteria they can't do their job.
And your constipation gets even WORSE.
Harmful bacteria overgrowth also compromises your immune system, making you susceptible to every bug and virus around, and weakens your gut wall so toxins can seep into your bloodstream and cause pain and inflammation.
Taking Super Shield multi-strain probiotic formula daily can build up your population of beneficial bacteria, which will improve your digestion and
strengthen your immune system.
Many of our clients have said that they started taking Super Shield just to prevent colds and flu and were pleasantly shocked to all of a sudden become more "regular!"
The rest of the story
Well, it's been a couple months since Roxanne left with a copies of Great Taste No Pain, Great Taste No Gluten and a bottle of Super Shield in hand.
She called again last night...still ecstatic, and still having "healthy" bowel movements now on a daily basis!
Plus her gas, pain and bloating had gone WAYYYY down.
Success!
She quite possibly has some gluten issues (70% of the population does) and Great Taste No Gluten will help her finish off any unresolved problems.
She thanked me, and ended our conversation with a very sweet, "God bless you for the work you do."
If you want to be like Roxanne and have a happy ending to YOUR constipation, relief and your freedom from laxatives is just a couple clicks away.
Let the safe, natural combination of Great Taste No Pain and Super Shield make constipation forever a thing of the past for YOU.
To your health,
Sherry Brescia
PS: Christine has ended laxative dependence (and saved $$)...
Thank you so much for everything you do. From all I've read and experimented with I was definitely one of those people who thought it was not possible to eat tasty food and feel good at the same time!
I am 60 years old and have been overweight all my life and dealt with constipation my entire life. About 10 years ago became laxative dependent, so depending on my diet and meds, I either had diarrhea or was constipated, and the doctors said I had IBS. After my first colonoscopy I was diagnoses with diverticulitis. I have this painful bulge in my lower right abdomen that doesn't show it's ugly face when I go to the doctor's office, I've had a CT scan twice now to be told there is nothing wrong with me, well it hurts really bad for there to be nothing wrong, sometimes when it swells it brings me to tears and I can't move it hurts so much.
I find that Alka-Seltzer with help with the pain sometimes -- my husband thinks we should buy stock in Alka-Seltzer because of how much I used. The gastroenterologist said it's just gas and recommended I take something like beano before you eat anything and you should be fine! My bowel sounds are so loud after I eat anything it was embarrassing to eat in public at all.
Well, I am ecstatic to report that since I've been using Great Taste No Pain plan I have lost 10 # and my bowel sounds have disappeared and the painful bulge has not shown its ugly face since I started eating the delicious recipes. I quit taking the purple pill, haven't opened an Alka-Seltzer since I started and have the energy to do things for myself instead of asking for help.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING your Great Taste No Pain plan.
Christine

When I want to poop I just read the latest Poof report.
That does the trick.
