Re: Day 7 on Humaworm, Constipated
Something that seems to help me more than everything else I have tried is to heat about 12-14oz water, and add the juice and pulp of a lemon (or two if small lemons). I add a splash of pomegranate juice to it to cut the lemon tartness, and to also add some sweetness. Sometimes it works overnight, and other times it seems to take two consistant days, but it always cleans me out, without making the bowels loose or watery.
I try to drink it first thing on an empty stomach so it gets through the intestines, and does not interfere with any herbs I take.
As with any constipation remedy, I try not to do it long term, because I normally don't have bowel issues and don't want to interfere with my normal body functions. I think lemon is pretty powerful, like a bleach, so it probably isn't a good idea to do it every day, but then again, I never heard of anyone dying from a habit of drinking fresh lemonaide, which is what this is, only with warm water.
