#653: Laxatives Blow! Constipation, Gut Health & the Real Path to Regularity

#653: Laxatives Blow! Constipation, Gut Health & the Real Path to Regularity

July 21, 2026 By Jared St. Clair

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared takes a deep dive into one of the most overlooked foundations of health: healthy bowel function. Americans spend hundreds of millions of dollars each year on laxatives, yet many never address the root causes of chronic constipation. Jared explores how sluggish digestion can impact the gut microbiome, hormone balance, cognitive health, detoxification, and overall well-being. He breaks down the differences between stimulant laxatives, osmotic laxatives, fiber, magnesium, and traditional herbal approaches, while highlighting the unique benefits of Triphala, one of Ayurveda’s most respected digestive tonics. You’ll also learn practical strategies to support regularity through diet, hydration, probiotics, digestive enzymes, stress management, and targeted supplementation to help restore healthy digestive function naturally.
