Why Constipation Happens

Your stomach feels tight and heavy, and it's been four or five days since you've gone to the bathroom. If this is you right now, Dr. Brian breaks down why constipation happens so often on GLP-1 medications, and why it's about a lot more than just the drug slowing you down. He walks through what your gut actually needs to work properly, the fiber mistake that makes everything worse, and simple daily habits like flax seed, pumpkin seeds, and electrolytes that can prevent it before it becomes miserable. He also answers a question he gets asked constantly, what causes those sulfur smelling burps, and what protein, deli meat, and fluids have to do with it.
