Le secret d’un corps sain réside dans une digestion saine, et le fait d’avoir un côlon en bonne santé joue un rôle majeur dans l’équilibre digestif dans son ensemble. Le côlon possède deux fonctions principales : il aide le corps à éliminer les toxines et les déchets et travaille à réabsorber l’eau contenue dans les selles.

Pour favoriser le bien-être intestinal, il est recommandé d’aller complètement à la selle au moins une fois par jour. Si vos selles sont peu fréquentes, difficiles à passer, ou que vous ne parvenez pas à les évacuer en une seule fois, vous souffrez probablement de constipationLes causes de la constipation sont nombreuses. Parmi les plus communes, on retrouve la déshydratation, l’inflammation du côlon, un déséquilibre de la flore intestinale, le stress, une alimentation pauvre en fibres ou encore un métabolisme lent [1].

On appelle péristaltisme l’onde provoquée par l’alternance de contractions et de relâchements musculaires responsable de l’avancée des selles dans l’intestin. Une fonction péristaltique diminuée peut occasionner la constipation [1]. Lorsque les selles stagnent trop longtemps dans le côlon, celui-ci réabsorbe trop d’eau, ce qui a pour effet d’assécher et de durcir les selles, les rendant ainsi difficiles à évacuer.

La constipation peut devenir un problème, puisqu’elle empêche notre corps d’éliminer les déchets nocifs. Cela peut causer une auto-intoxication, soit la réabsorption des métabolites du côlon menant à une accumulation des toxines dans le corps. La constipation et l’auto-intoxication peuvent être à l’origine de déséquilibres hormonaux, d’une sensation de fatigue oude confusion mentale, de baisses de moral, de l’apparition d’acné, de douleurs et de ballonnements [2].

Même s’il est essentiel de déterminer et de supprimer la ou les cause(s) de la constipation, nous avons parfois besoin d’un peu d’aide supplémentaire pour conserver une évacuation des selles régulière. GO-LAX soulage la constipation occasionnelle efficacement et en douceur en stimulant l’action péristaltique naturelle du côlon et en hydratant les intestins pour ramollir les selles. GO-LAX ne contient pas de plantes purgatives comme le séné ou la cascara sagrada. En effet, ceux-ci peuvent causer des crampes et des douleurs, en plus d’augmenter les risques de dépendance aux laxatifs.

Elemental Magnesium

  • Draws water into the bowel, which improves hydration in the digestive tract and softens the stool, making it easier to pass3.

Chinese Rhubarb Root and Rhizome Extract(Rheum palmatum)10% Rhein

  • Inhibits the channels that reabsorb water from the bowel, which softens the stool and makes it easier to pass4.
  • Gently activates pelvic nerves and motility receptors in the colon to enhance peristalsis and promote bowel motility4.

Cape Aloe Leaf Latex Extract (Aloe ferox) 4% Barbaloin

  • Increases water content in the bowel to soften stool and stimulate its movement through the colon5.

Slippery Elm Bark (Ulmus rubra– stem bark inner)

  • Soothes and heals the digestive tract to improve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), including reductions in pain and straining, and improved stool consistency and frequency6.

Triphala

  • Increases peristaltic action to promote regular bowel movements. Triphala improves the number, frequency and consistency of bowel movements while decreasing the abdominal pain and bloating caused by constipation8.
  • Rich in vitamin C, flavonoids and polyphenols that provide anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects on the bowel, protecting the gut mucosa and the improving symptoms of IBS9.
  • Supports the gut microbiota through inhibiting the growth of some undesirable bacterial strains, and promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria, including Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus species9.

  • Drink more water: There is no exact science to the amount of water each person needs but aim for at least 2 liters of water daily, and more if you’re sweating, in hot weather, or with exercise10. A good indication that you’re well-hydrated is if your urine is a light straw colour throughout the day. Try setting reminders on your phone or computer to remind you to drink water or herbal tea.
  • Increase fibre: Our daily requirement for fibre is 25g for women and 38g for men10. High fibre foods include chia, flax, whole grains like brown rice, quinoa and oats, legumes like beans and chickpeas, and vegetables like avocado, broccoli, beets, artichokes, and dark leafy greens.
  • Physical activity: Exercise helps to prevent and relieve constipation because it stimulates the natural contractions of the intestines and decreases the amount of water that is reabsorbed from the stool into the body, making stools softer and easier to pass10. Even gentle exercise, such as walking for 20 minutes daily, can improve digestion.
  • Manage stress: When we’re stressed, we’re in a “fight or flight” state, meaning our body shifts blood flow to vital organs like the heart, lungs, and large muscles and this can contribute to indigestion and constipation. When we’re relaxed, we’re in a “rest and digest” state, meaning our body sends blood flow to the digestive system. Meditation, deep breathing, and prioritizing sleep are effective ways to manage stress and improve digestion.
  • Treat the cause: A slow metabolism caused by an underactive thyroid can cause constipation, so it is important to screen the thyroid through bloodwork if you’re experiencing frequent constipation. Eating inflammatory foods like gluten and dairy, or having an unhealthy gut flora, can also contribute to constipation in some people.

Healthy bowel movements are the body’s way of eliminating toxins and waste. If we have infrequent, difficult to pass or incomplete bowel movements, we are not adequately detoxifying the body. This can lead to fatigue, hormonal issues, acne, pain, bloating and inflammation.

It is important to identify and work toward improving the cause of constipation through ensuring proper hydration, fibre intake, physical activity, stress management, and addressing any underlying functional or metabolic issues. Even when we’re doing all the right things, we sometimes need extra support to have healthy, fully evacuated daily bowel movements.
