Constipation help?!
Question: Constipation help!?
This is embarrassing but i ALWAYS have trouble going!. I am 15 years old so it's not an age issue!. I weight lift and run every other day!. My diet consists solely of smart bran (13g fiber/serving), various fruits and veggies, eggs, and 1/2 gallon of water!. I take 10 grams worth of fiber via supplements every morning too!.
This problem has persisted since my child hood and comes and goes occasionally!. Right now it's REALLY bad and everytime i have to poop i end up using a emena and i know it's bad to use it all the time but i can't go otherwise!. it is always hard as a rock!. my parents don't think this is a serious enough issue to go to the doctor!.
please help!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
beets are the natural stool softener if that's your concern!. also it has a good bit of fiber (since it's a root veg!. )
Try to include beets in your diet!. they are also known as slight growth enhancer (don't know for sure if it could be true or not)!.
Someone already mentioned "more water"!. so no reason to dwell on that!.!.
Another suggestion - besides beets get rhubarb juice too - you can cut them, boil with some sugar or without - cook for some while, drink instead of tee/coffee/liquid etc!.!.
smth about beets-
, do not fear the reddness of the #1 (urin gets tainted by the beet juice red)!. Also as all other house remedies it still takes some while before it really works!. Just be patient!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Actually it is serious enough for you to go to a doctor!. I have worked in a doctors office since late 1999, and have seen people suffer from what you have described!. Have you tried taking a stool softner!? Also, if you parents agree to take you to the doctor, ask the doctor about irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)!. Have them do a hema-cult test to test for unseen blood in your stool too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
