3 gut health myths that are keeping you constipated:
(I wish someone had told me this sooner)
MYTH #1: "You just need more fiber" TRUTH: If your gut isn't moving, more fiber can make it WORSE. It's like adding more cars to a traffic jam. Fix motility first, then add fiber strategically.
MYTH #2: "All probiotics are the same" TRUTH: Random probiotics can actually increase bloating. You need the RIGHT strains for YOUR issue. (Hint: constipation needs different strains than diarrhea)
MYTH #3: "Constipation is just part of getting older" TRUTH: It's a hormone-gut-brain communication breakdown. And it's 100% fixable when you address the root cause.
The reason you're still struggling?
