Constipation can wreck your gut health, detox, energy, and results long before you notice the real problem. In episode 899 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with gut health expert Marina Ortega to talk about why you’re still constipated and what to fix first. Marina shares how stress, dehydration, low electrolytes, laxative use, and poor drainage can keep the body stuck. They also cover colon hydrotherapy, coffee enemas, castor oil packs, parasite cleansing, black mold exposure, liver detox, GLP-1 constipation, bloating, and why men, athletes, and high performers should pay more attention to daily elimination.
