So what causes constipation during the summer heat? What makes our bowel movements change during the summer? The answer is water water water. What all of us don’t realize is HOW MUCH water our bodies loose trying to stay cool in the summer heat, especially now when temperatures have escalated to extreme levels. The bowel uses water to move fecal matter through the large intestine.

If you’ve never done one, take notes! You should have in the enema bag water or coffee that is body temperature. The water should be pure if using water.
