Many drugs affect the organs of the digestive system and the organs of elimination. Constipation is one of the most common side effects caused by the drugs like anti-depressants, pain medications, antibiotics, laxatives, birth control pills, steroids, marijuana, etc.

Antibiotics destroy good and bad bacteria in the digestive tract and can cause overgrowth of yeast and fungal. Same effect on the body can have anti-depressants and pain killers, as they weaken the immune system.

Even the herbal laxatives such as senna act by irritating and dehydrating the bowel, which can aggravate the constipation problem and make you need more laxatives more often. Pharmaceutical laxatives can also cause mineral depletion and lead to a ‘leaky gut’. Plus, laxative abuse can lead to kidney failure.

Birth control pills – their use can contribute to an increase in yeast due to an increase in unnatural progesterone. They also increase the risk of gallstones.

Steroids (like cortisone and prednison deterioration of the intestinal lining, which in the end can lead to constipation. They are also damaging to the liver.

Marijuana is usually considered harmless, but it sets up conditions favorable to  yeast overgrowth, which leads to constipation.

To clear your system of all unnecessary drugs, start drinking more tab water and begin a detox program. I would start with a colon cleansing tea from Health Plus:

Health Plus Colon Cleanse to GoTea Peppermint 30 pckts	Health Plus Colon Cleanse to Go Tea Green Tea 30 pckts

Drink colon cleansing tea at least for a month once or twice a day. And after that do a full colon cleansing program. The colon cleansing tea will help your body to get ready for a colon cleansing. By starting with the colon cleansing tea you might avoid healing crisis, which people usually experience during the first weeks of colon cleansing.

Stay healthy,
Mary

It is July 8 – one year since this website started to help its readers get healthier.

I find it very satisfying to give away information on how to cure common health issues. But today, I will not write about Candida, gallstones, diabetes, heavy metals, etc. Today I want to use this post to thank everyone who reads this blog and sends me their feedback.

I am very grateful for all your comments. Thank you for letting me help you!

For today’s celebration I have chosen this beautiful summer cake, which I am going to bake as soon as I finish writing this post. Follow the link and you will find how I intend to make it.

Your Mary
