Understanding Constipation and IBS

What is Constipation?

Constipation occurs when a person's bowel movements become infrequent and stools are hard and difficult, even painful, to pass. It usually happens when there is a lack of fibre and fluid in the diet.

Common causes of constipation:

• Lack of fibre in the diet
• Insufficient fluid intake
• Overuse of laxatives (can affect normal bowel activity)
• Certain medical conditions (IBS, diabetes, colon issues)
• Lack of physical activity
• Certain medications

What is Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)?

Food is passed along the digestive tract by rhythmic contractions of the muscles in the intestines, called peristalsis. If these muscles go into spasms, the contractions become uncoordinated and the contents of the intestines move too fast or too slow. This leads to pain in the abdomen and diarrhoea or constipation. This condition is known as Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

Common IBS symptoms:

• Abdominal pain and cramping
• Bloating
• Gas
• Diarrhoea or constipation (or alternating between both)
• Mucus in stool
• Feeling of incomplete bowel evacuation

How Colon Activ Supports Bowel Health

The natural supplement Colon Activ contains various herbal ingredients which keep bowel movements healthy and relieve the symptoms of constipation and Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

1. Anti-Inflammatory Support (Devil's Claw & Aloe)

Devil's Claw and Aloe relieve constipation by reducing inflammation in the digestive tract, which allows proper digestion and absorption of nutrients.

Devil's Claw:

• Traditional anti-inflammatory herb
• Supports digestive tract health
• May help reduce inflammation that impairs digestion
• Supports comfortable bowel movements

Aloe:

• Soothing and healing properties for the digestive tract
• Contains compounds that support bowel regularity
• Helps reduce inflammation in the gut
• Supports proper nutrient absorption

2. Detoxification Support (Buchu & Black Cumin)

Buchu and Black Cumin help to flush out toxins in the digestive system, which relieves symptoms of bloating and constipation.

Buchu:

• Traditional South African herb with diuretic properties
• Supports elimination of toxins
• May help reduce bloating
• Supports overall digestive wellness

Black Cumin:

• Traditional digestive support herb
• Helps flush toxins from the digestive system
• May help relieve bloating and gas
• Supports healthy digestion

3. Antioxidant Protection (Cloves)

Research has shown that Cloves have a high level of antioxidants. Antioxidants are substances that defend cells from the damage caused by harmful molecules which are produced when the body breaks down food.

Cloves benefits:

• High in antioxidants
• Protects digestive tract cells from oxidative damage
• Supports overall digestive health
• Traditional digestive comfort herb

4. Additional Support (Bulbine Natalensis)

Bulbine Natalensis:

• Traditional South African medicinal plant

How to Use Colon Activ

Daily Protocol:

• Dosage: 1-3 capsules at bedtime
• Starting Dose: Begin with 1 capsule to assess tolerance
• Adjusting Dose: Increase to 2-3 capsules if needed

• Administration: Take with a full glass of water

Why take at bedtime?

• Allows gentle overnight action
• Supports morning bowel movements
• Aligns with natural digestive rhythms
• Promotes comfortable, predictable regularity

Tips for Best Results:

• Start with the lowest dose (1 capsule) and increase gradually
• Drink plenty of water throughout the day (at least 2 liters)
• Take consistently for best results
• Combine with a high-fiber diet
• Maintain regular meal times

The Critical Role of Hydration and Fiber

Water is essential for bowel health and preventing constipation.

Why hydration matters:

• Water softens stools, making them easier to pass
• Adequate hydration supports healthy bowel movements
• Dehydration is a major cause of constipation
• Water supports the action of herbal ingredients

Hydration Strategy:

• Drink at least 2-2.5 liters (8-10 glasses) of water daily
• Drink a full glass of water when taking capsules
• Continue drinking water throughout the day
• Increase water intake if experiencing constipation

Fiber is equally important:

• Fiber adds bulk to stool and promotes regularity
• Aim for 25-35 grams of fiber daily
• Include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes
• Increase fiber gradually to avoid gas and bloating

Supporting Your Bowel Health Through Lifestyle

Nutrition for Bowel Health:

• Eat a high-fiber diet (fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes)
• Include probiotic foods (yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut) for gut health
• Limit processed foods and refined carbohydrates
• Eat regular meals at consistent times
• Chew food thoroughly
• Avoid foods that trigger IBS symptoms (if applicable)

Physical Activity:

• Regular exercise supports bowel motility
• Even 20-30 minutes of walking daily helps
• Physical activity stimulates intestinal contractions
• Exercise reduces stress (which can worsen IBS)

Stress Management:

• Chronic stress worsens IBS and digestive issues
• The gut-brain axis means stress directly affects bowel function
• Practice stress-reduction techniques (meditation, deep breathing, yoga)
• Adequate sleep supports digestive health

Bathroom Habits:

• Don't ignore the urge to have a bowel movement
• Allow adequate time for bowel movements without rushing
• Establish a regular bathroom routine (same time each day)
• Use a footstool to elevate feet while on toilet (improves positioning)
