Gary Brecka addressed a common yet often overlooked health issue in a recent post, warning that irregular bowel movements are not just inconvenient—they’re a sign of toxic buildup and poor digestive health.

“Constipation isn’t normal,” said Gary Brecka in a post on X. “If you’re not pooping daily, toxins are building up in your body.”

Brecka urged people to take a natural approach to correcting the issue. He advised drinking more water, increasing magnesium and fiber intake, eliminating seed oils and processed junk from the diet, and repairing gut bacteria by eating fermented foods.

Health experts agree that daily bowel movements are an important marker of digestive health. Constipation has been linked to poor hydration, low fiber diets, gut microbiome imbalances, and the overconsumption of processed foods. Left untreated, chronic constipation can contribute to fatigue, inflammation, and toxin accumulation.
