How to treat chronic constipation with redundant colon when triphala and laxatives aren't working? - #56489

FREE
I have chronic constipation, redundant colon. I have been drinking triphala for several weeks without results. I have had to add laxatives and that is not really working at this point. To contribute to this I have lost 2 inches in height over the last few years so the gut is more "compact"shall we say. I have also tried jaggery. And I do have dahl daily along with cooked apples and prunes with added ghee. Then a digestive chia pudding evening meal.
