Respected user, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly.
*You are having functional bowel disorder leading to chronic constipation &
it has became duphalac resistant.
*More will be of life style modifications giving you results slowly but long
lasting not like duphalac.
*Kindly manage certain very simple easy steps at home for better recovery
- liquid intake to be at least 4 litres a day preferably boiled water, coconut
water, rice water, lemon juice, green tea, home made juices, butter milk
- diet should be very rich in green leafy vegetables, cereals, pulses, legumes
yoggurt etc.
- take adequate amounts of proteins , carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals ,
anti-oxidants , trace elements in intake by mouth.
- avoid all oily / spicy / nonveg stuffs / beverages / pastas / cheese / excess
ghee / sugar / sweeteners
- chew your food very thoroughly which is neglected manytimes.
- take small amounts of foods at intervals
- fix timing of breakfast, lunch ,dinner
- avoid sleeping atleast for 2 hours after lunch / dinner
- avoid prolong fasting / overeating
- do regular walking in fresh air, exercises at home with YOGA without
failure for 1 hour a day.
- keep ambulatory , energetic .
- in our clinic we recommend certain natural products like Amla , Triphla,
