Treats Constipation

This is an empirical formula based on Dr. Fung's 60 years' clinical experience.

Constipation is generally caused by three factors. The first is diet imbalance. In addition to providing necessary nutrients, food intake should also contain enough fiber and water content to regulate bodily functions; decrease in fiber and water can result in constipation. Another dietary cause of constipation is excess heat which can result from eating too many fried foods and meat.

The second factor is occupational. Many individuals sit at their jobs for long periods. Thus, constipation results due to inactivity.

Finally, fever or other illnesses can lead to a decrease in the body's water content. In such cases, constipation is a complication which usually disappears when the illness is resolved
