I confirm this. It is correct, just that I look 15 years younger now. I'm joking. But this is really a simple and great method, plus ... it's free!

High fiber, mineral oil, laxative and a heavy duty back massager on the stomach will do the trick every time.

Dried prunes or a fresh cabbage salad....or:

I have a cousin, she drinks fresh coffee while on the toilet and in the meantime she's reading a captivating book. For about an hour/day, . But she has great results.

Her bathroom is cozy, with rustic baskets filled with books, candles etc. A very relaxing atmosphere there.

It would be wonderful if your statement were true, but unfortunately it is not.However, I hope that it works for many who are in pain.

This is a FDA approved prescription only device used for constipation. I'm sure that it isn't designed for "a certain very select segment of the population" Take your mind out of the gutter

Does your body "get fooled" into absorbing what it originally thought was waste? Constipated people are getting poisoned by their own waste?
If the intestines are full to long bad bacteria can build up and make the person sick.

The very idea of swallowing a mechanical device that stimulates the bowels by vibrating makes me feel squeamish.

I'll stick to eating strawberries.

I do 5/2 intermittent fasting with about 550 calories 2 days a week...don't really restrict the hours (just 12 hours a day from start to finish).
