    How times have changed! Alternative health practitioners have long spoken of gut health and were called quacks by the medical doctors.

    Bowel movements : 1. Get the Squatty Potty. 2. When consuming fiber, do so with plenty of water. Otherwise, if you consume fiber only without water, you're doing the opposite and you will constipate. 3. Eat super food Chia Seeds daily. 1 tablespoon for regularity. Build up to it. Start with 1/2 teaspoon

    Lentils are so healthy for the intestines. If you suffer from gas from legumes, take digestive enzymes or beano.

    This is very bad advice that its normal to have a bowl movement every three days. If you eat plant based only which is best for the gut you will have 3 per day.
