First, to help the body eliminate toxins and waste products. Second, the colon works to reabsorb water from the stool.\nWe should aim to have at least one easy-to-pass, fully evacuated bowel movement per day. If you are having infrequent, difficult-to-pass, or incompletely evacuated bowel movements, then you’re likely experiencing constipation. The causes of constipation are many, with dehydration, inflammation in the gut, unhealthy gut flora, stress, low-fibre diet, and a slow metabolism being common factors1.\nThe wave-like contractions and relaxations of muscles that move stool through the bowel is called peristalsis, and diminished peristaltic function can lead to constipation1. When stool sits in the colon for a long period of time, it re-absorbs too much water, making the stool dry, hard, and difficult to pass.\nThe concern with constipation is that it prevents the proper elimination of harmful waste products from the body. This causes autointoxication, where we reabsorb metabolites from the colon and it leads to a build-up of harmful toxins throughout the body. Constipation and autointoxication lead to symptoms of fatigue, hormonal issues, brain fog, low mood, acne, pain and bloating2.\nAlthough we should strive to identify and fix the cause(s) of constipation, we may occasionally need additional support to keep our bowels moving regularly. GO-LAX gently and effectively relieves occasional constipation by stimulating the natural peristaltic action of the colon and drawing water into the bowel to soften stool. GO-LAX does not contain purgative herbs like senna and cascara sagrada, which can cause cramping, pain, and are more likely to cause laxative dependence.\nEach Capsule Contains\nElemental Magnesium (magnesium hydroxide, magnesium oxide)175mg\nChinese Rhubarb Root \u0026amp; Rhizome Extract (Rheum palmatum) 10% Rhein100mg\nCape Aloe Leaf Latex Extract (Aloe ferox) 4% Barbaloin100mg\nSlippery Elm Bark (Ulmus rubra - stem bark inner)50mg\nTriphala100mg\nAmla (Phyllanthus emblica – fruit, dried) 6:1 Extract...........(QCE 200mg)33.3mg\nHarad (Terminalia chebula – fruit, dried) 6:1 Extract...........(QCE 200mg)33.3mg\nBelleric (Terminalia bellirica – fruit, dried) 6:1 Extract...........(QCE 200mg)33.3mg\nNon-Medicinal Ingredients: Vegetable Capsule Shell (Hypromellose), Oryza sativa (Rice) hull powder, gum arabic, sunflower oil.\nPriority Allergens: None\nHealthology does not use genetically modified ingredients.
