If you’re constipated right now, I’m so sorry and I hope everything turns out okay! Sending you love 💕 I’ll pray for y’all tonight, I had it mild at one point and I can’t imagine how hard it’d be if you struggled with it for a long time. You’re not alone and I hope you find relief soon
I once suffered from this for just one day when the stool was rock hard. It was scary. Cant imagine how people who suffer from it regularly live with it.
@@gkwame4981 The only cure for me was eating 2 bananas a day and cutting dairy and beef down dramatically. Probiotics can help a bit too but changing your diet to more fruits/veggies is the kinda sucky real solution.
@@gkwame4981 I use magnesium oxide and it works so well. I could be sooo constipated and I take 3 of them and then after a couple of hours I'm all better. It was a dream come true.
@Sweet Potato well do you? I guess you're really dehydrated that's why you're constipated and (i think) has a problem with your kidney idk, you know lack of water in your body?
I am a 12 year old girl who has possible severe constipation. Sometimes when I’m feeling anxious because of my constipation, that I’ve had for many years, I come to these types of videos and look at other peoples perspectives. It just gives me so much more knowledge and emotional support that I never knew I needed. I feel like I should be grateful for not having to hold in my poop for two weeks or so, but this has been a problem that I’ve had for so so long. I’ve never seen other people cry or vent about how constipation sucks for them except here. If I could go back and talk my younger self something, I’d tell her to go to the darn bathroom even if it hurts so bad. It was her choice that she did not want to poop, and now I am like this. I hope that one day I’ll be able to get rid of this and live a peaceful and healthy life. If you or your child or anybody you know is experiencing constipation, severe or not, give them emotional support and tell them to start becoming healthy. It’s helped me so much…I don’t want to hear anybody become constipated because of their bad habits because I have gone through that. Good day and I wish everybody luck on their journey to get rid of constipation.
Damn :( I’m 13 and I used too be constipated alot as a kid , my mom told me it will stop once I’ll be in my teens years , she was right it stopped , it has been 3 year since I’m done with constipation , if you are dealing with constipation well do anything that this video said but if you are severely constipated take some laxatives it will help a lot
I am currently suffering from Constipation and its causing all sorts of Mental problems for me. I am beginning to change my lifestyle and I have tried that maneuver you mentioned. It really send a wave of relief for me as it was the first time in a while since I felt my body being empty if thats the right word. Thank you, Ted-Ed!

Who else has had intestine issues all their life and constipation just makes you want to curl up on the ground and die especially if you are on your period ✋
I remember feeling a bowel movement so strong that i ran into the bathroom, and when i pushed only gas came out. I nearly cried because i thought that i could finally poop
- always salt your food with sea-salt, or salt with minerals (celtic, sea, pink himalayan etc). --- always make sure your gut acid is plentiful. i dont know how to do that but just make sure you eat sea-salt with every meal or take 6th of tspn once a day. Good to have= warm butter, ghee butter (buyteric-acid). Vit c(ascorbic-acid). Apple-cider vinegar, betaine from beets, pepsin to break down proteins. You can use all of them or even one, sea-salts the easiest one to get. Enzymes from fruits, veggys or raw foods in general, these things have high amounts of enzymes, especially pineapple, ginger and pappaya. if you cannot get them than try the supplements like papaya enzymes, pancreatin, bromelain, serrapeptase, etc. and eat them after or before a meal. if you're taking pharmaceuticals that cause constipation(no saliva production in mouth, throat, stomach, intestines etc), make sure to time your dose, take the enzymes or salt 10 minutes after your meds kick in, anytime before that your supplements are wasted in trying to get the saliva back on, you must take them after your meds kick in especially anti-depressants, anti-biotics and opiates. Once saliva production is up and running, your intestines will have the saliva flowing through again which makes digestion normal again. Digestive herbal teas(saliva production), are also great to use, you can use both or one, but the timing matters here. Good digestive teas, fennel, bay leaf, ginger, there are more. Have probiotics in the gut always, yogurt, kefir,or other fermented items are important in helping vitamins, minerals or nutrients absorb an pass. magnesium, no more than 1500 mgs a day. Have average amount of fiber in the diet. grapes and prunes are great as well
I've seen a shift in how Ted-Ed gives use their videos. It feels more personal and I like how they new artists animating for them. So it's definitely for the better.
Relieve Constipation with Flaxseed Flaxseed contains a polyunsaturated fatty oil with a very high content of essential fatty acids, which participates in the laxative action of the seed. ruclips.net/video/-hbXIww7L0w/видео.html
I'm still constipated and it's been going on for months the first it happend when my aunt made spaghetti that day and that's when my stomach started hurting and never pooped for days since the pain always happens when ever I tried. When I went to the hospital for difficult breathing after urinating I was told it was because i was dehydrated and my stomach was backed up. The only thing I drink was water but never eat for days after because my stomach was full so my mom and others at home told me I have to eat. Instead they gave me junk food and this made me lose trust in anyone at what tell me to eat cause when ever I do me my stomach starts hurting on my left side and can't digest it out. The only thing that helped was apple juice but they couldn't buy anymore. All this pain I'm going through makes feel suicidal.😵 and it gotten worse when my period came. Update: it's been months now so I'm fine.
Folks please add fibre rich food in your diet and for God's sake, avoid junk and processed food. Homemade food is a blessing. Start preparing yourself if someone else cant. Eat oats, brocolli, wheat based food. Drink lots of water. Exercise or do yoga dailyyyyy.

Guys a tip: I had been constipated for over 2 weeks .. I tried all the exercises, changed my diet but it was still bad .. yesterday I had a glass of hot coffee and the very next minute .I ran to the toilet ...coffee=life safer
@@blurlover13 yea me too I feel nauseous and sick if I have coffee but I just gulp it down and sit at one place ...it starts making me dizzy but then you get poop too
My experience: I suffered this til 16. I used to evacuate once every 3-4 days. I always eat junk food, my diet was mostly unhealthy. Then started eating well, reducing junk and introducing fruit and vegetables, and so adding vitamins minerals and fibers. Never had problems anymore. Today I evacuate everyday (sometimes even twice a day)
To the people who have to live with constipation for their whole life, I feel sorry for you and I can imagine how uncomfortable, frustrating and annoying it can be! Having abdonmenol pain, being bloted and probably not eating a lot due to the current pain has to get really frustrating and annoying! I've had that happen at times, and it sucks!
Hi, there! It's me, Rain! I really love to see vidios like this, I really do! They're so informative and so helpful! I can actually remember once when I was around six years old, when I once was suffering from really bad constipation! It really hurt, and my tummy got really bloted, and I had a lot of trouble sleeping at night because it hurt so much! But, my mom said to eat more fruits and veggies, use a hot congress to get rid of my swollen belly, and just try to go to the toilet as often as I chould, and she said she was sure I chould do it, and it whould be gone vary soon, so I took her advice, and sure enough, one afternoon, I was playing in my room, and felt a squeeze, and knew I should try to go, even if it still really hurt, so I ran to the bathroom, pulled down my pants, sat down, and waited! I sat for a while, but nothing was happining, so I took a deep breath and tried to push! I pushed and grunted and grunted and pushed, but it was tough work! But, I wouldn't give up, so I barreled down and puuuuushed and puuuuuushed and puuuuushed, over and over, harder and harder, again and again, until at last it came out! I'd finally done it! I was so proud of myself, and it was a huge relief to finally get it pushed out! Rain.
There was one terrible moment in highschool were I went to the bathroom and it took 20min to pass. I came back so embarrassed when me teacher asked, and I had to say something along the lines “I didn’t want it to take that long either.”
@@beayn Yes, i am suffering from this freakish problem, i tried several methods none of them worked out very well. It feels like i wanna cut intestine outta my body and get a new one and fix it, that's how much i suffer.
@@yashaswikulshreshtha1588 I think the water of Rajasthan is not suiting you.... different places have different water quality..... switch to mineral water....
You subscribed a couple days ago? How deep have you gone through? I remember the first time subcribing. There is this urge that I have to watch every single one of them hahaha welcome!
Dude I love this animation style, props to Augenblick Studios! TED-Ed makes me grow brain cells ngl. Ever since I was like 8 or 9 I watched ur vids and it helped with school and with entertainment. You guys are the best!
Also u can be constipated by being too stressed ! Especially if u are stressed for long time. I had constipation from stress and it was really bad... I was using pills which contained some kind of steel in itl,which made my stool almost like a liquid and relaxed all my stomach muscles. I had diarrhea from pills and that was the way i cleared my constipated stool. It took 3 weeks and it was crazy....
I am allways thinking about it. In other words I am in stress and stress don't let my bowels to relax. That is why urge does not come and I havs to push it by myself. What did you do to relieve your stressfull thoughts?
I am.. I recently had an intense episode of haemorrhoids who led me to to the hospital they didn't do surgery because the doctor saw them and he told me they were hard but with time everything it will be better Im better now...I only have 1 that' doesn't go away it doesn't hurt or something but every single time I poop bleed a little bit its been like this for 3 months..probably in a future I will have to go to the doctor to remove it or make it smaller or something. if any of you guys are suffering from haemorrhoids do not use creams..just take 2 pills of Daflon ( it's a flavonoid so it will make the haemorrhoids which are basically inflamed veins disappear ) One after having lunch and the other one after you had dinner believe me it's going to be the best thing you do !!! forget about the creams
for anybody suffering from this right now, i promise - you'll get better. i'm still recovering from my 3-week constipation case, but my stomach pain is very minimal now. one day, i woke up feeling better, then it kept improving from there. i slowly regained my appetite. just drink plenty of liquids (water or hot ginger tea is preferred, but absolutely anything will do: like juice), and try to eat, even if it's just a little. take some miralax to fix your digestive tract and to prevent your colon from absorbing too much water. though if your constipation lasts 4 weeks, or you've started vomiting, please see a doctor or go to the er to check for a bowel obstruction. help yourself, or get help.
I suffered this for 2 weeks and one time I went to the doctors with my stomach hurting in my 1st week in and my mom and I went at midnight. I fell asleep for 1 hour and woke up. It was probably the worst experience of my life.

Hello everyone, I don’t know if anyone will be seeing this but I’m going to say something to you all. I came here today watching this video to learn more about constipation, which I’m actually going through right now. It’s been a while going through this rough condition and it’s horrible. The effects of constipation like Nausea, bloating and discomfort are just so annoying and bad. Trust me, you don’t wanna go through it. To be honest, I could even have chronic constipation at this point because it’s been going on for so long and some days I’m fine and some days I’m not but I could be insane and it’s probably not but I get panicked easily. I’ve been told medical advice and what I should be doing but for some reason, I feel like I’m not doing something right because sometimes I just struggle to poop and I just don’t. For the past 4 days, I have not had a single bowel movement. (Which is not right) I have been eating regularly and more since I need to because of my skinniness. I don’t really want to continue my story because it could just be too long, and I have a lot of things to talk about but I’m not going to continue. So I hope you all have a great day and I hope none of you are going though this. God bless you all, take care.
I think you should have talked about intestinal bacteria and how a lack of them can cause constipation too as can be the case with chronic antibiotic users as this is becoming a more common problem.

My Constipation is gone within a week I worked so hard. I drank a glass of warm water every morning, water with salt, ate lots of fruit, massaged my belly, went to the bathroom 4 times s day pushing as much as I can, only used a little bit of Laxatives(when I say a little I mean like a little a little).
Huh. I've only ever been told that constipation is only due to dehydration and insufficient fibre, so I was so confused why it was still a chronic problem. It being affected by how your guys move makes a lot of sense.
I was constipated then I just asked god to help me through the pain and then what do ya know, mud gates are open again... broski up in heaven works pretty fast
Well growing up my mum always said to eat "food with spoon not only fork" which means to eat soups and "Ciorba,, not only hard and dry food so I won't get constipated. She was right, and we lived in comunist times so she was smart.
when I was about 7-10 years old, I experienced mild constipation were I would only go #2 about once a week or my poo would be really hard, lumpy, or bloody from cuts it made. It went away gradually so, by the time I was in middle school, I was fine. My sister recently turned 9 though and she is experiencing similar problems. I don't know why it happened to both of us because none of my parents had this, but I know one thing for sure, milk of magnesia will haunt me for life.
I found out the reason my self for why I was constipated for so long and just pooping every 5-6 days. I was not chewing my food properly, I just chew them a few times and then I immediately swallowed it. It was my fault. Now everything is finally fixed and now I poop everyday because I now chew my food a lot. Eat slowly guys! You may be eating too fast which causes you to be constipated.
Nope. People do it and it's not bad but depends from body to body and on climatic conditions. I drink roughly 7-9 everyday since like an year now and it helps with anxious binging habits...
Ted Ed explains things without making things awkward also the voicers voice is so calm and relax I don’t mean to sound creepy but I could listen to it all day
I never get constipated, but then again I've been vegan for 30 years. I poop like three times a day. Lots of fiber, no meat or dairy, no constipation, ever!
For more than 6 years I have had problems with digestion. I have taken so many medications and various treatments, nothing has helped, antibiotics, prebiotics, natural remedies, chemical everything that is in the world, nothing has helped. Also, because of the drugs, other organs and joints start to hurt. In the end I found a problem. The problem was in my swallowing food, because of which the unchewed food could not be digested and caused severe pain. Thank God, now everything is more normal and began to gradually recover.
The style and visualisations and science of ted to represent everything in a warm style that a class of nursery kids and even gentle man can understand better is too good ❤️❤️ Tnks @TED to make us easily understoodable.of Your views, ideas, thoughts etc ...❤️🙏 Tnq ❤️❤️❤️
The moment you go to the toilet and once its half done it stops and it gets stuck there forever and you need to wait untill you need to go to the toilet again.
Traveling gives me constipation, cuz I'm too embarrassed to use public bathroom and have to hold it in till I get to hotel but till then it's gone somewhere. And I go for like 3/4days without bowel movement.
I can relate to this. I once expelled a very hard piece of feces, that it was accompanied by traces of blood. This phenomenon is a curse to one who's very unfortunate to experience it.😢

Hi, the video is good. I have to say one thing that take your dinner early. It helps a lot in stomach diseases. I have heard, a man with blood in stool problem got relief by taking dinner within 7pm.
I want to add an personal experience, the cause of constipation for me once was bad posture, so make sure you follow right posture while sitting and see if your constipation becomes better
TED-Ed is very informative, making every topics interesting. excellent graphics and a perfect place for learning. very well explained. Thank You for creating amazing videos on internet. non-profit organizations develop by experts around the world.
For anyone who have constipation, try grapefruit juice without sugar(not the processed one and have to be freshly juiced) or just grapefruit itself, that stuff is a lifesaver. Whenever i have constipation, my parents always give me grapefruit juice and i'll be better for about 2-6 hours. I'll drink about 200-300 ml of the juice or about 300-600g of the grapefruit.
I have the worst constipation since I was a kid. And when there is too much stuff happening inside(if you know what I mean) my stomach hurts sooo baddd. And after the 30 mins session in the bathroom, I always feel drained. Happens once a month.

this is hard for 12 year old. stay strong. find foods that make your stool soft, exercise a little. and buy magnesium oxide.
My gosh that's pretty sad right there I haven't experienced constipation yet, but someday I will.
People should try "Ayurvedic remedies" in constipation for once . It's totally natural.
Damn :( I’m 13 and I used too be constipated alot as a kid , my mom told me it will stop once I’ll be in my teens years , she was right it stopped , it has been 3 year since I’m done with constipation , if you are dealing with constipation well do anything that this video said but if you are severely constipated take some laxatives it will help a lot

if you're taking pharmaceuticals that cause constipation(no saliva production in mouth, throat, stomach, intestines etc), make sure to time your dose, take the enzymes or salt 10 minutes after your meds kick in, anytime before that your supplements are wasted in trying to get the saliva back on, you must take them after your meds kick in especially anti-depressants, anti-biotics and opiates. Once saliva production is up and running, your intestines will have the saliva flowing through again which makes digestion normal again.
Digestive herbal teas(saliva production), are also great to use, you can use both or one, but the timing matters here.
Good digestive teas, fennel, bay leaf, ginger, there are more.
Have probiotics in the gut always, yogurt, kefir,or other fermented items are important in helping vitamins, minerals or nutrients absorb an pass.
magnesium, no more than 1500 mgs a day.
Have average amount of fiber in the diet.
grapes and prunes are great as well
Feel the same
That moment when it all releases could be the best feeling in the world
When you think it's finally gonna release but then you feel a big continued lump of poop right after it 💀
happened to me. i just about cried knowing it was over
I've seen a shift in how Ted-Ed gives use their videos. It feels more personal and I like how they new artists animating for them. So it's definitely for the better.

Lol
*IT'S RAW!!*
This is actually what I say when I’m constipated.
“WHY YOU GOTTA MAKE MY BODY COMPLICATED GOD???”
When you're constipated you wish that the human anatomy was just a straight pipe downwards
It's constipatied
cool, don't remember anyone asking.
Emoji boi part 2: Electric boogaloo youre so cool im crying
@@aIkaIi true 😤
If only our bodies were perfect…
I'm still constipated and it's been going on for months the first it happend when my aunt made spaghetti that day and that's when my stomach started hurting and never pooped for days since the pain always happens when ever I tried. When I went to the hospital for difficult breathing after urinating I was told it was because i was dehydrated and my stomach was backed up. The only thing I drink was water but never eat for days after because my stomach was full so my mom and others at home told me I have to eat. Instead they gave me junk food and this made me lose trust in anyone at what tell me to eat cause when ever I do me my stomach starts hurting on my left side and can't digest it out. The only thing that helped was apple juice but they couldn't buy anymore. All this pain I'm going through makes feel suicidal.😵 and it gotten worse when my period came.
Update: it's been months now so I'm fine.
Aww I’m sorry I’m sitting on the toilet rn in the verge of tears myself so I know how it feels
Folks please add fibre rich food in your diet and for God's sake, avoid junk and processed food.
Homemade food is a blessing. Start preparing yourself if someone else cant.
Eat oats, brocolli, wheat based food. Drink lots of water. Exercise or do yoga dailyyyyy.
One thing that helps me digest food and poop easier is drinking yogurt.

How did u get through that--
They made constipation and pooping cute with this animation, I love it so much 😂

A considerable proportion of people can achieve a regular bowel movement by just doing an asian squat or even just by trying to asian squat. Of course eat plenty of fibre, drink plenty of water (but not too much) and see a doctor if symptoms persist. And please let others know this info as only a small proportion of people know about the asian squat's benefits in releaving constipation.
I did a personal experiment and I found that I poop more often and easier when I drink more water daily, it’s truly helped me a lot
Guys a tip: I had been constipated for over 2 weeks ..
I tried all the exercises, changed my diet but it was still bad .. yesterday I had a glass of hot coffee and the very next minute .I ran to the toilet ...coffee=life safer
Regular exercise is the key
Shoot I hate coffee
@@blurlover13 yea me too I feel nauseous and sick if I have coffee but I just gulp it down and sit at one place ...it starts making me dizzy but then you get poop too
coffee with milk or without it?
@@sakshisharma9702 I have it with milk
My experience:
I suffered this til 16. I used to evacuate once every 3-4 days.
I always eat junk food, my diet was mostly unhealthy.
Then started eating well, reducing junk and introducing fruit and vegetables, and so adding vitamins minerals and fibers.
Never had problems anymore. Today I evacuate everyday (sometimes even twice a day)
To the people who have to live with constipation for their whole life, I feel sorry for you and I can imagine how uncomfortable, frustrating and annoying it can be! Having abdonmenol pain, being bloted and probably not eating a lot due to the current pain has to get really frustrating and annoying! I've had that happen at times, and it sucks!

Hi, there! It's me, Rain! I really love to see vidios like this, I really do! They're so informative and so helpful! I can actually remember once when I was around six years old, when I once was suffering from really bad constipation! It really hurt, and my tummy got really bloted, and I had a lot of trouble sleeping at night because it hurt so much! But, my mom said to eat more fruits and veggies, use a hot congress to get rid of my swollen belly, and just try to go to the toilet as often as I chould, and she said she was sure I chould do it, and it whould be gone vary soon, so I took her advice, and sure enough, one afternoon, I was playing in my room, and felt a squeeze, and knew I should try to go, even if it still really hurt, so I ran to the bathroom, pulled down my pants, sat down, and waited! I sat for a while, but nothing was happining, so I took a deep breath and tried to push! I pushed and grunted and grunted and pushed, but it was tough work! But, I wouldn't give up, so I barreled down and puuuuushed and puuuuuushed and puuuuushed, over and over, harder and harder, again and again, until at last it came out! I'd finally done it! I was so proud of myself, and it was a huge relief to finally get it pushed out! Rain.
There was one terrible moment in highschool were I went to the bathroom and it took 20min to pass. I came back so embarrassed when me teacher asked, and I had to say something along the lines “I didn’t want it to take that long either.”
Regards from India...
You're the best
Do you guys even have to worry about constipation over there?
@@beayn No because we eat less meat, more fibers and water and we squat...
@@beayn Depends on what you eat.
@@beayn Yes, i am suffering from this freakish problem, i tried several methods none of them worked out very well. It feels like i wanna cut intestine outta my body and get a new one and fix it, that's how much i suffer.

Why is TED-Ed more interesting than school omg, I would love to see this kind of animation in school.
Your channel is really interesting. I subscribed a couple days ago and I love it :)
Misha o-o welcome to the family!
Hitomi Iwahana aww thank you :)
You subscribed a couple days ago? How deep have you gone through? I remember the first time subcribing. There is this urge that I have to watch every single one of them hahaha welcome!
clarkevander yeees I've been watching so many videos and then I subbed because I loved it
Misha o-o it's so relaxing
“Occasionally constipation happens” me: it’s literally every time I need to go to the toilet
how often do you go ?
same
Dude I love this animation style, props to Augenblick Studios! TED-Ed makes me grow brain cells ngl. Ever since I was like 8 or 9 I watched ur vids and it helped with school and with entertainment. You guys are the best!
Also u can be constipated by being too stressed ! Especially if u are stressed for long time. I had constipation from stress and it was really bad... I was using pills which contained some kind of steel in itl,which made my stool almost like a liquid and relaxed all my stomach muscles. I had diarrhea from pills and that was the way i cleared my constipated stool. It took 3 weeks and it was crazy....
I am allways thinking about it. In other words I am in stress and stress don't let my bowels to relax. That is why urge does not come and I havs to push it by myself. What did you do to relieve your stressfull thoughts?
What do you mean by stress
Was it painful
Who else is suffering from the after effects of constipation? Fissures and Hemms. Sigh.
Derp Ina me with bleeding too. it happened , then bleedig shorten and eventuallystopped bleeding
I am
I am.. I recently had an intense episode of haemorrhoids who led me to to the hospital they didn't do surgery because the doctor saw them and he told me they were hard but with time everything it will be better Im better now...I only have 1 that' doesn't go away it doesn't hurt or something but every single time I poop bleed a little bit its been like this for 3 months..probably in a future I will have to go to the doctor to remove it or make it smaller or something. if any of you guys are suffering from haemorrhoids do not use creams..just take 2 pills of Daflon ( it's a flavonoid so it will make the haemorrhoids which are basically inflamed veins disappear ) One after having lunch and the other one after you had dinner believe me it's going to be the best thing you do !!! forget about the creams
Yes, it feels like you are trying to s*** out a giant machete
so True
for anybody suffering from this right now, i promise - you'll get better. i'm still recovering from my 3-week constipation case, but my stomach pain is very minimal now. one day, i woke up feeling better, then it kept improving from there. i slowly regained my appetite. just drink plenty of liquids (water or hot ginger tea is preferred, but absolutely anything will do: like juice), and try to eat, even if it's just a little. take some miralax to fix your digestive tract and to prevent your colon from absorbing too much water. though if your constipation lasts 4 weeks, or you've started vomiting, please see a doctor or go to the er to check for a bowel obstruction. help yourself, or get help.
I suffered this for 2 weeks and one time I went to the doctors with my stomach hurting in my 1st week in and my mom and I went at midnight. I fell asleep for 1 hour and woke up. It was probably the worst experience of my life.

Hello everyone, I don’t know if anyone will be seeing this but I’m going to say something to you all. I came here today watching this video to learn more about constipation, which I’m actually going through right now. It’s been a while going through this rough condition and it’s horrible. The effects of constipation like Nausea, bloating and discomfort are just so annoying and bad. Trust me, you don’t wanna go through it. To be honest, I could even have chronic constipation at this point because it’s been going on for so long and some days I’m fine and some days I’m not but I could be insane and it’s probably not but I get panicked easily. I’ve been told medical advice and what I should be doing but for some reason, I feel like I’m not doing something right because sometimes I just struggle to poop and I just don’t. For the past 4 days, I have not had a single bowel movement. (Which is not right) I have been eating regularly and more since I need to because of my skinniness. I don’t really want to continue my story because it could just be too long, and I have a lot of things to talk about but I’m not going to continue. So I hope you all have a great day and I hope none of you are going though this. God bless you all, take care.
Keep coming in with fresh new animations ted ed. Makes learning actually entertaining.
I think you should have talked about intestinal bacteria and how a lack of them can cause constipation too as can be the case with chronic antibiotic users as this is becoming a more common problem.

My Constipation is gone within a week I worked so hard. I drank a glass of warm water every morning, water with salt, ate lots of fruit, massaged my belly, went to the bathroom 4 times s day pushing as much as I can, only used a little bit of Laxatives(when I say a little I mean like a little a little).
Huh. I've only ever been told that constipation is only due to dehydration and insufficient fibre, so I was so confused why it was still a chronic problem.
It being affected by how your guys move makes a lot of sense.
I was constipated then I just asked god to help me through the pain and then what do ya know, mud gates are open again... broski up in heaven works pretty fast
I have learnt so much from this channel! Thanks so much Ted-Ed, I wouldn't of been able to get this knowledge without you :3
Well growing up my mum always said to eat "food with spoon not only fork" which means to eat soups and "Ciorba,, not only hard and dry food so I won't get constipated. She was right, and we lived in comunist times so she was smart.
Perfect timing, I've been constipated all week
Is it still happening ?

Watching this while delevering the number 2 >>>>>>
when I was about 7-10 years old, I experienced mild constipation were I would only go #2 about once a week or my poo would be really hard, lumpy, or bloody from cuts it made. It went away gradually so, by the time I was in middle school, I was fine. My sister recently turned 9 though and she is experiencing similar problems. I don't know why it happened to both of us because none of my parents had this, but I know one thing for sure, milk of magnesia will haunt me for life.
Bro I'm the only one in my family and class to have constipation alot I've had it 2 times in like a month or 2 😱
Lol true I've been prescribed milk of magnesia and take it whenever I feel the need.
I found out the reason my self for why I was constipated for so long and just pooping every 5-6 days. I was not chewing my food properly, I just chew them a few times and then I immediately swallowed it. It was my fault.
Now everything is finally fixed and now I poop everyday because I now chew my food a lot. Eat slowly guys! You may be eating too fast which causes you to be constipated.
Isn’t drinking 6-8 cups of water a myth?
Nope. People do it and it's not bad but depends from body to body and on climatic conditions. I drink roughly 7-9 everyday since like an year now and it helps with anxious binging habits...
Ted Ed explains things without making things awkward also the voicers voice is so calm and relax
I don’t mean to sound creepy but I could listen to it all day
I never get constipated, but then again I've been vegan for 30 years. I poop like three times a day. Lots of fiber, no meat or dairy, no constipation, ever!
For more than 6 years I have had problems with digestion. I have taken so many medications and various treatments, nothing has helped, antibiotics, prebiotics, natural remedies, chemical everything that is in the world, nothing has helped. Also, because of the drugs, other organs and joints start to hurt. In the end I found a problem. The problem was in my swallowing food, because of which the unchewed food could not be digested and caused severe pain. Thank God, now everything is more normal and began to gradually recover.
Can we take time to appreciate how cute the video's art is 😍
Watching this while contemplating on why i feel bloated and experiencing this. Thanks TED -Ed 😂😊

Constipation is not a disease itself but a signal to something else going wrong
The moment you go to the toilet and once its half done it stops and it gets stuck there forever and you need to wait untill you need to go to the toilet again.
The guy in the vid looked really cute while doing his thing😂
Traveling gives me constipation, cuz I'm too embarrassed to use public bathroom and have to hold it in till I get to hotel but till then it's gone somewhere. And I go for like 3/4days without bowel movement.
I can relate to this.
I once expelled a very hard piece of feces, that it was accompanied by traces of blood.
This phenomenon is a curse to one who's very unfortunate to experience it.😢
God bless you
I'm going through it n I wanna die 😭
Literally happening as I type this
- always salt your food with sea-salt, or salt with minerals (celtic, sea, pink himalayan etc).
--- always make sure your gut acid is plentiful. i dont know how to do that but just make sure you eat sea-salt with every meal or take 6th of tspn once a day. Good to have= warm butter, ghee butter (buyteric-acid).
Vit c(ascorbic-acid). Apple-cider vinegar, betaine from beets, pepsin to break down proteins.
You can use all of them or even one, sea-salts the easiest one to get.
Enzymes from fruits, veggys or raw foods in general, these things have high amounts of enzymes, especially pineapple, ginger and pappaya. if you cannot get them than try the supplements like papaya enzymes, pancreatin, bromelain, serrapeptase, etc. and eat them after or before a meal.

Once saliva production is up and running, your intestines will have the saliva flowing through again which makes digestion normal again.

magnesium, no more than 1500 mgs a day.
Have average amount of fiber in the diet.
grapes and prunes are great as well
Solution is: life long good habits of exercising and healthy foods, maintaining hydration, and maintaining stress.
Unfortunately some people just have a lazy digestive system
@@Lea-ov8vq yes I’ve gotten constipation and it’s so bad, but if you put in your best effort, you might erase it. it’s sometimes lifelong or short, mines is a bit lifelong
Hi, the video is good. I have to say one thing that take your dinner early. It helps a lot in stomach diseases. I have heard, a man with blood in stool problem got relief by taking dinner within 7pm.
Stress has a lot to do. Also fiber intake. That has been my experience in my almost 40 years of life
I love how cute the animation is
Its been 2 days. I feel so uncomfortable 🥲
I FIND THIS VIDEO UNCOMFORTABLE
I want to add an personal experience, the cause of constipation for me once was bad posture, so make sure you follow right posture while sitting and see if your constipation becomes better
WOW! A video with a perfect timing..
I really liked this animation style!

I'm here cause I had this problem yesterday and today.
For anyone who have constipation, try grapefruit juice without sugar(not the processed one and have to be freshly juiced) or just grapefruit itself, that stuff is a lifesaver. Whenever i have constipation, my parents always give me grapefruit juice and i'll be better for about 2-6 hours. I'll drink about 200-300 ml of the juice or about 300-600g of the grapefruit.
I have the worst constipation since I was a kid. And when there is too much stuff happening inside(if you know what I mean) my stomach hurts sooo baddd. And after the 30 mins session in the bathroom, I always feel drained. Happens once a month.
As a person who runs 10-20 miles a week. This is a very new topic to me.
I just got done with constipation but I have hemorrhoids
Bad combo
Fiber is super important for constipation relief! A favorite high-fiber snack is veggies and hummus!
Great video without really telling what actually causes constipation.
This made me cry... I’ve poorly treated my body😞 I need to do better
