The psyllium husk helped me out tons. I am going to start taking herbal laxatives along with my psyllium husk every night. One thing that I have read was that Adrenal fatigue causes constipation. Hypothyroidism does also. I have problems with my Adrenals I get stressed out very easily, I have food allergies, and Hypoglycemia. I think that my Adrenal Fatigue causes all of these including my poor bowel movements. I also can't eat spicy foods at all even the very mild chili powder gives me constipation, bloating, and stinky breath. I also make sure that I eat only whole grains and I eat a lot of legumes like beans, peas, and lentils. They have a lot of fiber which helps my bowel movements, as well as protein which helps keep my blood sugar steady.

You are constipated because your digestive system is under stress, and it is understress for a reason. You need to adress that reason. What is a 'fair amount of fruits and veggies'. Are the fruits ripe? Are you eating more fruit or more veggies? Do you eat meat, grains, refined foods, dairy? How do you handle your emotions? Are you relaxed, assertive? Are you drinking enough water? There are A Lot of causes of constipation, and all of them linked to diet and emotions. Would need to know more....

It can constipate some more than others. You might also have some kind of food allergy.

But my acupuncturist brother-in-law told me the same thing, that constipation at my age is most likely due to excessive internal heat which of course can only be exacerbated by spicy food. I am currently taking some herbs he made me. Before this, I was on some supplements from a Dr. Schultz here in Southern Cali. It had cayenne pepper, psyllium seed, and some other ingredients in them. I'm gonna try a variety of methods before I decide which is best for me. Next on my list is turkey rhubarb, a colon cleanse supplement. Thanx everyone for the suggestions thus far!

Also, it might be a good idea to do a colon cleanse. Another cause of constipation, from personal recent experience would be frequent consumption of very hot and spicy food...depending on how sensitive you are with food like that.

It sounds like your digestive system is lacking enzymes and acidophilus so you might want increase these. www.volcanohealing.com Pila.

I've had this problem for years but I drink water all the time, eat a fair amount of veggies and fruits, and I exercise reguarly. So what else might be the cause of my lack of bowel movements? I went on a juice fast last weekend combined with cayenne pepper supplements from a dr. Schultz here in Southern California. I think it helped a little bit but I don't feel any strong, permanent change from it, at least not what other people have reported.
