How To Make Yourself Poop

 Have you ever suffered from constipation? Is this a recurring issue in your life? 

Spending two or more days without going to the bathroom causes a lot of discomfort, doesn't it? 

According to the experts, going to the toilet 2 to 3 times a day, or even twice a week are both completely normal situations. Did you know? 

Both people, the one who goes to the bathroom more times a day or the one who goes only twice a week, can be considered healthy and not suffer from constipation. 

However, if you suffer from constipation, pay attention to 3 reasons why you might be having this issue: 

Lack of physical activity

Did you know that one of the reasons for not going to the bathroom frequently is the lack of exercise? 

Lack of fiber

Many people today have diets poor in fiber because they don't usually eat wholemeal foods, raw vegetables, and fruits with peel and pulp. 

Did you know that fiber works by increasing fecal matter? 

Lack of water 

Water is essential to improve intestinal transit because it helps fiber to form the "gel" that eases the intestinal transit. 

If none of the things above are the reason why you are constipated, it might be some medicine you are taking, like the opioids or analgesics to treat pain; or anticholinergics, used in cases of allergy and that can affect your intestine. 

Besides these medicines, some health issues may affect your bowel movements, as is the case with diabetes and thyroid disorders. 

Constipation may even cause other issues. To avoid all these issues, we suggest you to:

Go to the bathroom whenever you need to; 

Drink plenty of liquids, preferably water and juices. 

Alcohol must be ingested with moderation since it may dry feces. 

Eat fruits between your meals, with the peels whenever possible; 

Seek help to deal with stressful situations and anxiety attacks. Your emotions can affect how your intestine works. 

If the problem persists, talk to a doctor to diagnose your case and get the help you need.

Which Type of Sugar Is Healthiest For You?

 This ingredient is found in most homes and you surely have it at home: sugar. 

But, if you take care of your health, or want to start paying more attention to it, it is better to learn what is the best kind  of sugar to have at home.  Right? 

Today, we have endless options of sugar on the market shelves: granulated, caster, brown, organic, and a lot more.  

And that's where this question comes: which one is the best for our health? 

Sugar can vary according to its origin and processing. Most sugars are made from sugarcane, but today there is also coconut sugar. 

Brown sugar has a darker color because it is less processed than the other types, that are whiter. 

Learn about 6 types of sugar and their characteristics:

Caster sugar 

The most well known of all sugars. 

Granulated sugar 

Just like caster sugar, the granulated type also undergoes a process where chemicals are added to make it white and tasty, but that results in a loss of vitamins and minerals.

Brown sugar 

This sugar is extracted after cooking sugarcane juice. 

Demerara sugar 

Similar to brown sugar, it undergoes a light process of purification and refinement, without any chemical additives.

Organic sugar 

It doesn't have any artificial ingredients in its composition.

Coconut sugar 

It can be a substitute for the cane sugar, extracted from the fluid of coconut palm flowers, and doesn't go through any refining or adulteration processes. 

It is important to remember that, since sugar is a simple carbohydrate it must be avoided and consumed only in small amounts, preferably keeping it away from your daily eating habits. 

The excessive consumption of sugar may cause issues, such as weight gain, diabetes, and inflammation in the body.

These 3 Fruits Can Fix Most of Your Gum and Teeth Issues

 Do you suffer or know someone who suffers from receding gums? 

When the gums are receded, the tooth's root gets exposed and, besides causing the patient a lot of pain because of sensitivity, it can also compromise the esthetic of your smile. 

Gum recession is a slow process but, if the patient notices any kind of alteration in the tissues and immediately seeks a dentist, the case can be reversed without any harm to the body. 

According to Ayurveda, teeth are a by-product of bones, and neem and licorice stems can be chewed on or used as toothbrushes. 

Did you know that? Besides this trivia, tooth cavities and receding gums can indicate a deficiency of calcium, magnesium, and zinc. 

If you suffer from one of these issues and want to avoid them, chew a handful of black sesame, rich in calcium, every morning. 

Then, brush your teeth without using toothpaste to rub the remains of the seeds on your teeth, polishing and cleaning them. 

To avoid receding gums, teeth infections and cavities, you can choose between massaging your gums daily with sesame oil or using triphala powder mixed with sesame oil. 

But, do you know why triphala is good? 

Other  than that, correctly chewing your food stimulates the gums and helps keep them healthy. 

According to studies, it is believed that eating 4 figs a day can also strengthen teeth and gums.
