Colon Health

If you can't shit right or at all for days at a time, you have got a big problem. There are some people who are naturally irregular because their colons don't work fast enough. Then there are people who just abuse their bodies. Even if you don't like it you should eat green leafy stuff and other vegetables. Essentially you need fiber and lots of it. If you are eating mostly protein, starch and fat then you are hurting your body.

Things that will make your colon unhappy and possibly even cause constipation is anything with caffeine in it, things with an abundance of sugar or salt and massive stress or just unrest.

Relaxation and stress management is important to keep you regular. What I think people need to be more socially aware of is that their feces can tell them what is going on in their body very easily. If your shit smells unusually strong to the point where your eyes water, you need to rethink your diet, cut back on red meat. If it is too sticky and hard to come out, cut back on the starch and fried foods. If it is black, you need to be careful you could be bleeding internally which can lead to sepsis.

You should not eat too much red meat in a week. I recommend avoiding it, the fibers are too strong and it usually isn't digested right.
