Is constipation a sign of toxicity and parasites?
Constipation, defined as a regular pattern of more than 2 days between bowel movements, although a common problem, is not by itself proof of toxicity or parasitic infection. However, waste material that stays too long in the bowel may result in absorption of some toxins back into the blood stream. Constipation may be caused by inadequate fiber and water in the diet, or just as commonly, it may occur as a result of stress and nervous tension.
