Before we get into what the lower bowel formula is and how it can help you, let’s take a moment to talk about colon health. 

In a forward to the book, "Dr. Christopher’s Guide to Colon Health," Nathan Jaynes states that “Nine out of ten diseases are caused by constipation and can be prevented and treated by a proper diet and herbal formulas. In an ideal world, everyone would have three bowel movements a day, wholesome food would be the norm rather than the exception, disease would be uncommon, and herbalists would have very little to talk about.” 

As it is, with our modern lifestyle and diet, things are not always ideal, and unfortunately, gut issues or problems are common.

Bowel disorders can cause a lot of pain, negatively affect how your body digests food, and be a sign of other underlying and potentially hazardous health conditions. 

Some common bowel disorders include:

• IBS (Irritated Bowel Syndrome) 
• Intestinal Obstruction
• Crohn's Disease
• Celiac Disease

And more. Other things like ulcers, colon or intestinal cancer, and infections can also cause bowel issues. 

While the exact cause of bowel issues depends on each person, bowel issues and disorders can be very painful, restrict you from eating certain foods, and make you very sick. 

Common symptoms of any of these disorders include vomiting, nausea, constipation, abdominal pain, diarrhea, bloating, heartburn, and changes in the consistency of your stools. 

Bowel disorders are usually more serious than just an every now and then stomach ache, or bout of constipation. However both a bowel disorder and a normal stomach ache are uncomfortable and both can be helped. 

Some natural and helpful things you can do for bowel issues include:

• Drink plenty of  water everyday

• Increase your intake of fiber

• Avoid trigger foods 

• Exercise regularly

• Stick to an eating schedule

• Chew your food thoroughly

• Take prebiotics and probiotics to help your gut

Fiber feeds your gut bacteria and helps regulate digestion and have regular bowel movements . It is generally recommended to get 25-35 grams of fiber in per day, but most Americans only get 15 grams or less.

Foods high in fiber include chia seeds, apples, broccoli, berries, dried fruit, beans, and oatmeal. 

Herbs that contain fiber and inulin include chicory root, burdock root, dandelion root, slippery elm, psyllium seed & husk and ginger. These are also a great addition to add into your diet. 

Making sure to get enough fiber every day is a great way to kickstart the digestion process and help your body eliminate waste smoothly. 

Sometimes your bowel issues can come because of a food, or food group, such as sugar, dairy or wheat. These food groups can be very inflammatory and may the culprit behind bowel issues.

Doing an elimination diet to find out if certain foods cause symptoms, or getting allergy tested are good options to see if your gut issues are caused by food. 

If anything serious happens, like blood in your stools, or sudden and unexpected weight loss talk to your doctor immediately. They can run some tests to see if there are any other health problems you should be aware of. 

Another option for bowel health is doing an herbal regiment with a formula like Dr. Christopher’s Lower Bowel Formula. 

“Lower Bowel” is a signature formula created by Dr. Christopher as a natural laxative in order to encourage the elimination of waste and assist intestine activity.  

It comes in either a 1 pound bulk powder form, in capsules, or in extracts. It used to be called “Fen L.B,” and sometimes “Naturalax 2,” so you might have heard it by those names. All the names are referring to the same amazing formula. 

There is a reason why this formula is one of Dr. Christopher’s most popular- it works well when it comes to getting rid of constipation and helping you have regular bowel movements, so that you can feel good and be healthy. 

Lower Bowel Formula is made with a blend of:

• Cascara Sagrada Bark

• Barberry Root Bark

• Cayenne Pepper 40 MHU

• Organic Ginger Root

• Lobelia Herb

• Red Raspberry Leaf

• Turkey Rhubarb Root

• Organic Fennel Seed 

• Goldenseal Root

 **Unlike other laxatives, natural or otherwise, the herbs in the Lower Bowel formula work to tone the colon rather than just stimulate, this means it is intended to be a regiment rather than something you feel you need long term** 

These ingredients have laxative properties, cleanse waste from the body, and are tonics for the peristaltic muscles. They help increase secretions from the stomach, liver, and intestines, alleviates and relieves cramps, helps the digestion process go smoothly, and more.

Here is a quick reference list to other products Dr. Christopher carries that can help educate, and guide you in eliminating waste and easing bowel problems. 

Dr. Christopher’s Guide to Colon Health. This paperback book gives a more in depth study on colon health and what type of diet and exercise you can do to eliminate waste. It is a great resource to learn more about not only the Lower Bowel Formula, but other things you can do for gut and bowel health as well. 

Quick Colon Formula part 1 and part two. These are two other amazing formulas that help the digestive system and elimination process move smoothly, especially in the large intestine. Both work well with the Lower Bowel formula and are well worth looking into if you are struggling with bowel problems. 

Herbal Cleansing Kit. This is a great kit to help you cleanse your body internally. Not only does it come with the lower bowel formula, but it comes with our Kidney formula, Liver & Gallbladder formula, and Blood Stream formula. Buying the kit is a more affordable option than buying each item separately.

In conclusion, Dr. Christopher's Lower Bowel formula is a great option for anyone struggling with gut, bowel, or digestion issues. It can be used as a laxative every now and then, or taken as more of a health regimen in order to help bowel issues.
