Constipation isn’t just skipping days. Even once-a-day might be too little. Learn why daily pooping matters for detox, hormones, skin, and mood

How do you define constipation? If you think it only means going days without a bowel movement, think again. If you're only going once a day, you might already be experiencing constipation without even realizing it. Irregular bowel movements are a clear signal that your body may not be detoxifying effectively. Regular elimination is essential for maintaining overall health, as it helps remove toxins that can build up and potentially lead to various health issues. If you are not having a bowel movement at least twice a day, then it’s time to reevaluate your routine.

Why Constipation = Gut Chaos

Let’s break it down:

Your body filters waste through the liver
It packages that waste into bile
Bile gets dumped into your intestines for removal

But if you’re constipated?
That bile, and everything it’s carrying, just sits there.
Your body reabsorbs the toxins, hormones, and byproducts it was trying to get rid of. 😬

So instead of detoxing, you’re RETOXING.
