I feel nasusa and constipatted. I also may have lots of stool in my body. Will this help?

Dulcolax makes a designated laxative that may work better. I used this product daily as a stool softener, but I was not constipated. It just added water to my stool so it would pass easier.

inulin is more likely to improve bowel functioning than it is to cause constipation (but some say constipation can be a side effect). all other things being equal (assuming general good health), constipation will probably NOT be a problem. possibly a good chance you might encounter gas, bloating and flatulence (which might diminish with time). i use inulin (a prebiotic), probiotics (various strains) and beta glucan 1,3/1,6 and a low dose of lipitor which has gotten my blood lipids way, way down (lipitor alone had only a modest benefit).if you have concerns about the use of supplements, you should consult with a physician (hopefully one who is knowledgeable about supplements, otherwise you may not get useful information). good luck and happy bowel movements to you.

I found that within a few days I was feeling like my digestive and colon health was better. It is mild and yet effective and something that I feel I could take every day as part of the supplements that I take. I have been taking it for a while now and it seems to have an ongoing high quality maintenance effect that I like.

Probably, though it will slow down the cleansing process. Check with your doctor or naturopath.

I actually didn't need a restroom that often ... My stomach didn't run I just went twice a day as opposed to the usual once a day. I was also drinking diet tea whilst taking the herbal cleanse. You'll be ok

I have had trouble with IBS for years. Since I found doTerra Digestzen I am one happy girl. Soon as I feel any stomach discomfort coming on I put one drop of this on my stomach area and the symptoms goes away. I make sure I am never without Digestzen.

Your issues don't sound that out of the ordinary. I've been using this product for months. Always the same results. Pills smell like low tide at the beach. Slight nausea when taken on an empty stomach. Which results in horrendously smelly burps. Like I've just eaten sushi made out of cat food. But overall, the positive physiological results outweigh the negative psychological results that come from getting dirty looks on the bus in the morning. I know the instructions say to take them on an empty stomach, but I haven't noticed any kind of decrease in efficacy if/when I take them with food. So, do whatever works best for you.

The only thing that has happened is I am having extra gas and soft frequent bowel movements. No weight loss.

I don't know it it would help. I think its very likely it would help since it helps flush out bacteria, it doesn't hurt to try since its also harmful. Have you seen a naturopath? you might have candidiasis, I had systemic candidiasis and it was giving me all sort of problems and once candida is fixed everything else went away, even irritable bowel syndrome. I advise you to find a reputable naturopath and mention candidiasis I am almost sure that's what you have and be prepared if you really want to get better, you'll have to do candida diet that means no starchy foods and coffee, flours etc but you will be healed from the root. Good luck :) I don't know it it would help. I think its very likely it would help since it helps flush out bacteria, it doesn't hurt to try since its also harmful.

I have read that information also and when I presented this to my GI Doc with his knowledge of my long-standing problems with IBS-C, he thought it was fine for me to use indefinitely. He actually said the thinking on use of some laxatives over time is changing, particularly for those who have not found other alternatives that work for them, so that this would be acceptable in that situation. I have used it for a number of years without a problem or need to increase the dose. It is best to try other things like drinking more water, using more fiber first, but for some, those measures do not work.

I sufferer from irritable bowel syndrome. I take Imodium AD occasionally to slow me down. I would not consider it fast acting.

Make sure your posture is aligned. I felt tightness in my core because of sitting upright better.

It does not have that effect on me. It is very uplifting and it is somewhat helpful in the digestion area, but not diarrhetic to me. You'll just have to try it yourself to find out. It is a very healthy addition to a diet.
