Hello Andreas.I hope you had a good holiday.

I'm still on the vata diet but my constipation has only slightly improved. However,I'm going to stick with it because my body feels like it's 'breathing a huge sigh of relief!!'

I'm trying to get to the root cause of my constipation because I NEVER had it before I started all this cleansing.

It all started when I started taking Chinese Bitters (8 months ago).I take a quarter of a teaspoon daily for 3 weeks then I take a week's break.

Chinese Bitters is very bitter and I know that vata types can't tolerate bitter. Could a tiny dose of Bitters over an extended period of time cause an imbalance?

Many thanks for taking the time to read this.And God bless you for all your kind help and advice.
