Potassium helps you p**p! šŸ’©

A key piece of my work with my gut-healing clients is making sure they’re actually nourishing themselves with the specific nutrients their gut needs to heal and function.

One of those key nutrients is potassium, which about 98% of Americans are not getting enough of šŸ”‘

Other great sources of potassium include:

ā­ļø white beans
ā­ļø beet greens 🫜
ā­ļø swiss chard
ā­ļø coconut water 🄄
ā­ļø acorn squash
ā­ļø spinach 🌿
ā­ļø lentils
ā­ļø papaya
ā­ļø edamame
ā­ļø sweet potato šŸ

WHEN you’re bloated can give you many clues as to WHY you’re bloated šŸ¤°šŸ»

Most people only pay attention to the food, or what they ate, and blame their bloat on that…

But you’re missing a big piece of the puzzle when that’s all you’re paying attention to 🧩

Bloat is complex, and there are often many factors at play, so identifying why you’re so bloated can help you identify and actually address the root cause 🫜

Currently bloated and uncomfortable? ā¤µļø

I struggled for SO long with my own gut issues, which is why I’m so passionate about helping other women who are struggling šŸ’›

Of course now looking back there are so many things I’d love to tell my past constipated self, but most of all I’d like to just give her a big hug, and tell her that she will figure this out and it will get better šŸ«¶šŸ»

If you’re looking for support with your constipation from someone who has been where you are, finally figured out her own constipation, and now helps other women get out of the constipation-bloat cycle, I’d love to support you.

Most people don’t realize this, but if you’re super backed up and you add in psyllium fiber, it is very likely going to make you even more constipated šŸ’©

I see this ALL the time with my clients, and it’s something I’ve even experienced myself (not fun 🫠)

Fiber (especially fiber supplements like psyllium) is definitely not one size fits all šŸ‘ŽšŸ»

Unfortunately, I see many doctors and nutritionists just blindly recommending their patients take psyllium, without taking into consideration what type of constipation they have šŸ™…šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø

Yes, psyllium CAN be amazing! ā¤µļø

When used at the *right* time in the *right* dose. But it can also make things significantly worse if you’re already backed up and having hard, dry type 1/type 2 stools (on the Bristol Stool Chart).

In my practice I mainly use psyllium for clients with mixed constipation (alternating between constipation & diarrhea) and AFTER clients improve their motility (which is just speed at which stool moves through your GI tract). It can really be amazing in these scenarios!

Moral of the story — know your constipation type and transit time before deciding whether or not to use psyllium šŸ˜‰

If you’ve been constipated for YEARS and feel like you’ve already tried everything…

fiber.

more water.

magnesium.

senna.

enemas.

low-FODMAP.

SIBO protocols.

going gluten-free.

…and you’re STILL not having regular, complete bowel movements…

there’s a reason.

constipation is rarely as simple as ā€œyou just need more fiberā€ or ā€œdrink more water.ā€

and if the standard advice actually worked, you wouldn’t still be constipated after trying all of it 🫠

inside my gut-healing program, we take a completely different approach.

we address the things that actually determine whether your gut can move stool properly:

→ improving motility so your backed up stool isn’t making you even more backed up
→ improving digestion from the top down
→ addressing the nutrients needed for motility
→ creating a healthier gut microbiome
→ improving your stress resilience + nervous system regulation

because the goal isn’t to temporarily force yourself to p**p.

the goal is to get you out of the constipation-bloat cycle so you can stop thinking about your gut and move on with your life.

There’s a very common trait I’ve seen in women with constipation, and it’s keeping you stuck.

You’re strong, independent, a ā€œdo-erā€, and you have figured out and are thriving in nearly every other aspect of your life.

And yet, you’ve tried figuring out this constipation issue for months, if not years (maybe even decades), and you haven’t been able to get the results you want and you’re beyond frustrated.

You’re a perfectionist, Type-A, and you don’t understand why, even though you’re doing all the right things and trying so hard to fix this, you can’t seem to figure it out.

You feel like you should be able to figure this out all on your own, just like you’ve figured everything else out on your own.

You might even feel like a failure because you haven’t, and your perfectionist self is so frustrated every day because you cannot control this one aspect that you so desperately want gone from your life.

If this is you, I SEE you. So many of my clients have these exact same feelings about their constipation & bloat.
And yet, they decided to do something different and it changed everything.

They asked for help. They got support. They stopped trying to do everything themselves and figure it out all on their own, and got help from someone who had been on their path before and helped other women get real results.

Asking for help does not mean you’ve failed because you couldn’t figure it out on your own. It doesn’t mean you’re weak, or not good enough. It means you’re self-aware enough to recognize getting help will get you where you want to go faster and more easily than if you keep trying to do it yourself.

If you’ve been struggling with constipation and bloat, this is your invitation to stop trying to figure it out on your own and ask for help.

I’d love to support you on this journey. I currently have space for 2 new 1:1 clients in my gut-healing program. Comment or DM me ā€œCALLā€ to schedule a free no-pressure call so we can see if working together is a good fit ā¤ļø

Smelly p**ps? āž”ļø You’re probably not digesting your food well!

Other signs include stool sticking to the side of the toilet, seeing food in your stool, or having to wipe a lot after going 🧻

Poor digestion is one of the top things I see contributing to bloat & constipation in my practice, so it’s essential to address this if you want to get rid of bloat and/or constipation.
