338// Laxative Dependency: Will I Ever Poop on My Own Again?

Have you ever been told by a doctor that, because you've been relying on laxatives for "too long," you'll never poop on your own again?

Have you gone weeks trying to get off laxatives, but you're body never started pooping on it's own again, and you're right back on them just to feel normal in your body again?

Have you tried fiber, magnesium, water, and probiotics, but still can't have a bowel movement without laxatives?

If you said yes to ANY of these questions, then this episode is for you!

In today's episode, I'm teaching you the truth about laxative dependency: you are NOT stuck on laxatives for forever!! After seeing dozens of clients poop again on their own after depending on laxatives for 5, 10, 20, or 30+ years, I'm revealing exactly what we did to get them pooping again - even when their doctor said it'd never happen.

Today, I'll be breaking down:

• Why laxative addiction is not the end of your bowel movement story
• What's actually keeping you from pooping (hint: it's not laxative abuse or overuse)
• Why quitting cold turkey, or just adding more fiber and magnesium, isn't resolving your laxative dependency
• What it actually takes to heal your body from laxative dependency, even after years, or decades, of relying on laxatives just to go

If you're exhausted from feeling controlled by laxatives and the need to poop, or you're worried about what years of dependency might have done to your gut, then this episode is for you!
