Re: Natural Help for Overactive Bladder

One of the best natural remedies for urinary incontinence is actually water and a healthy diet with ample amounts of dietary fiber. A physician by the name of Steve Hodges has done a lot of work on childhood incontinence and says it's often related to constipation which can in turn desensitize the nerve ending in the bladder. When individuals fear their incontinence they often don't drink enough water and fluids which then exacerbates the constipation and incontinence. Dr. Hodges prescribes a healthy diet with plenty of natural dietary fiber to treat the incontinence. He sometimes prescribes light colon cleansing diets too, which may sound a little uncomfortable but probably no more so than a life tied to adult diapers. I would certainly encourage anyone to look to natural solutions to urinary incontinence and Google some of Dr. Hodge's work as a starting point. Tweet
