Man has not only developed wrong habits in relation to the kind of food he eats, but has become unbiologic in almost every phase of his daily life. Constipation is simply one of the natural consequences of these perversions. It is scarcely too much to say that the average civilized man is the victim of chronic constipation. If his bowels move once a day, or even once in two days, he feels that his condition is very satisfactory; whereas Cannon, in his work entitled "The Mechanical Factors of Digestion," has shown that practically all the digestible food taken at an ordinary meal is digested and absorbed within eight or nine hours from the time it is eaten, and the unuseable residue is at the end of this period found deposited in the colon, ready for...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
