Key Points:

• There are many solutions that can help with your normal system.
• You should be pooping every day, once is ideal and twice is fine.
• Sometimes our large intestine gets stretched causing an issue in our normal systems.
• In order to keep yourself or your child feeling good, you need to keep poop flowing through the intestines.
• For a child who is already chronically constipated, do not pump tons of high fiber things into them all of a sudden. This can cause much pain.
• If your child has not used the bathroom in more than 3 weeks, you need to visit a doctor.
• Diluting juice into the water can help get things flowing naturally.
• Adding things gradually into your child's diet can help you get things moving without pain.
• A well-balanced diet is a key to our youth.
• Make sure that there is an open dialogue for your children to talk with you about how they are feeling and pooping.
• Having a footstool in the bathroom can help tilt your pelvic area and empty your intestines.
• Adding things into your diet like flax seed can help keep things flowing and digesting well.
• When you are not pooping well, it is very toxic to your body and can affect your everyday life.
• When you are not pooping normally then it will cause a domino effect on other things.
• If you only ever take laxatives or stool softeners your body will not perform on its own.
• Creating healthy habits in your life in all aspects can help with your poop.
• "Your poop matters. Please start being mindful of it and take steps to create a healthy lifestyle."
