Elimination
 
Question ...

is anyone doing anything "extra" regarding waste elimination?

I found my self a lil constipated after my first day ...

Ive also heard of the Sea Salt enema...

I use the stuff from the clinic i go to "flolax". I was really having issues with this the first few weeks, I was in pain! Ever since I started taking this I have no issues. I take 2 before I go to bed and I'm good to go in the AM. I have also tried benifiber (I'm in Canada not use if they sell it in the US) and I would mix it in with my shakes. It didn't work as well for me, casued me a grea deal of cramping.

Novi-Lax
 
My clinic gave me Novi-lax, which is a non habit-forming all natural laxative. The only ingredients are Psyllium, Aloe Vera, and Prune powder. You can take up to 4 per day but I find that one in the morning helps bring on movement later in the evening, which works for me. It says it takes about 6-12 hours to work but for me it's about 15-17 hours. Whatever works right!

I use Novi-lax (an IP product). When I was traveling and it got real bad I used miralax. It is tasteless and can be mixed with any drink. It has no sugar and was recommended by my coach.

awesome.... with my system the influx of protein is shocking my system and I experienced some constipation... but my herbal tea laxative worked like a charm ...and I got to incorp tea into my intake!

waste elimination is vital as well as being OP.
expecially if you are eating more meat to fullfill your protein meal .
