I hate to say this, but.....

I have a hard topic to discuss today and I'm not even sure how to bring it up, but someone has to TALK about this!!  Ok, so I'm just going to say it.....you need to be going to the bathroom (#2) every day and I've actually been reading that you're suppose to go up to 3X/day!!!

So, if you're thinking right now, "Gross!  I can't believe she is actually typing this!", give me a second.

Did you know that just the frequency of going #2 actually speaks volumnes to you about your health?!  Your intestinal track is the size of a tennis court!!  If it isn't functioning properly, you will not lose weight as quickly and nutrients will not be delivered to your body properly either.  So who better to tell you about this subject than your trainer?!

Ok, so let's continue.

Not only should you be going every day, 1-3X/day, but what it looks like also matters!  If it looks like little marbles, you have a problem!  It should be the shape of a.... (again forgive me for the topic today)...a banana!   

So now that you know, what can you do about it?

While fiber has often been the big savior when it comes to constipation, we are now also learning that you must have a healthy gut.  You need good bacteria in your gut in order to be able to process foods properly and have regular BMs.  However, many of us do not eat properly and have destroyed the good bacteria in our guts.  

Did you know that Splenda (sucralose) decreases the good bacteria in your gut?  Google "Duke University Study and Splenda" and read all about it.  Now maybe you will finally put down the Splenda packets!!  

Therefore, we would all benefit from taking a probiotic daily.  This is where I recommend you begin in clearing up the health of your gut, and therefore your bathroom, daily experience.  It can take several months to gain the proper good bacteria in the gut!!

Shaklee's probiotic is awesome!! It's the tiniest little pearl probiotic, so it's very easy to swallow.  A 30 day supply is only $19.95.

You can't rely on just eating yogurt to supply you with the good bacteria you need because some of those are destroyed before reaching your gut.  Shaklee's probiotic is triple coated and is guaranteed to reach the gut!!   Plus, many yogurts are too high in sugar and some are even sweetened with Splenda!
Click here to be taken straight to the probiotic and order it toady!  If you're already a Shaklee member log into www.MyShaklee.com and order today!  

Also, save-the-date for Saturday August 18th at 10 am.  I am having a Super Saturday Shaklee event in my home.  Come and learn about new products that will be announced this week and also about how you can have better health in 30 days or less!  If you want to come, please email me at saraoliver@gettobootcamp.com for directions!

Yours in gut-health,
