About this book

Constipation and Its Correction by Exercise is a comprehensive guide authored by John Harvey Kellogg, M.D., focusing on the natural and effective management of constipation through physical exercise. Drawing on his extensive experience as a physician and health reformer, Dr. Kellogg delves into the causes, symptoms, and consequences of chronic constipation, emphasizing the importance of lifestyle and bodily movement in maintaining digestive health. The book provides a detailed exploration of the anatomy and physiology of the digestive tract, explaining how sedentary habits and improper diet contribute to sluggish bowel function. Kellogg presents a series of scientifically designed exercises specifically aimed at stimulating the abdominal muscles, improving peristalsis, and promoting regular bowel movements. Each exercise is clearly described, with instructions on proper technique, frequency, and progression, making the regimen accessible to readers of all ages and fitness levels. The author also discusses the role of posture, breathing, and general physical activity in supporting gastrointestinal health, offering practical advice for integrating these habits into daily life. In addition to exercise, the book addresses dietary considerations, the importance of hydration, and the avoidance of harmful laxatives, advocating for a holistic approach to overcoming constipation. Case studies and testimonials illustrate the effectiveness of the methods described, providing encouragement and motivation for readers seeking natural solutions. Constipation and Its Correction by Exercise stands as a valuable resource for anyone interested in improving their digestive well-being through safe, drug-free, and scientifically grounded practices.
