Constipation is the worst … not being able to go to the bathroom regularly and have this abnormal pain!
It is not something we need to learn how to live with, but something we must take care of because it's not just painful but also not good for your health.
So what is it really? What is the cause for this terrible pain?!
Constipation is very common, it happens when the bowel movements are infrequent and not complete. Constipation is very painful and causes abdominal pain.
When do we get constipated?
When the body is dehydrated, the stool gets very hard and causes constipation. For some people nervousness and anxiety can cause either constipation or diarrhea. Constipation can also appear because of medications or injury.
What can we do to prevent constipation?
We need make sure we live our lives healthy and notice our lives habits: what we eat and drink and if we work out and how frequent.
Eating right, drinking enough water and exercising are the answer for most people.
For some people constipation is not just drinking more or eating right because for them it is a sickness and they need to know how to live with it and take care of their bodies.
For that I would recommend to start a diet which means, not to eat less but to eat things that will make the bowel to move.
We need to exercise our bowel by eating things that are easy to digest.
Plums, apples, carrots, dates, red beet, oatmeal, horseradish, figs, green cabbage, lettuce; these will all help your bowel to start working and learn how to digest properly.
Try and eat at regular hours during the day and don't eat big meals.
Try not to eat before you go to bed, better eat in the morning to start the digestion.
You can also make some mixtures on your own, very easy to make:
• Take 1/4 teaspoon of Epsom salt and mix to half a glass of water, drink right a way. Can't believe how amazing that is.
• Make a thyme tea by using one teaspoon on thyme to 1 glass of water.
• Right after you wake up before you eat anything, drink 1 cup of warm water mixed with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and half a lemon juice.
• Mix concentration of dried figs and concentration of plum, add half a teaspoon of paraffin oil, 1 cup of borsch, honey, lemon and drink.
• Before you eat in the morning drink 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water.
If you will take care of your body and make sure you help your body to digest you will see an improvement in weeks and you will feel so much better! So start now! Don't wait!

WE had cement walk/patio poured last year with a blackening in part of the walk way. The sealer used became distorted looking, patchy, and looked awful. We have sandblasted it off. The cement is lighter now. There are some irregularities in the finish, but it looks better. It is recommended that it be resealed? We are unsure of what to do. We are Wash. state and it is cool and wet this year. What are the advantages of sealing the cement? Thanx
