Many times when we begin doing something beneficial for our body, it will respond completely differently for a while than the way we anticipate it will. Such was the case when I started drinking green smoothie about a year ago. For the first several weeks I was irritable, suffered from headaches, and had bowel issues. I also experienced an initial decrease in my energy levels. I was not a happy camper.
Flatulence and constipation are two things that could initially happen from drinking smoothies. There tends to be consequences linked with change, and our bodies are no different. It has needed the raw food nutrition we are providing it for a very long time, and now that it is getting it, our body is can concentrate on cleaning itself of all the toxins and sludge that's been accumulating for decades, probably decades. The result of all this cleaning from within is what you're experiencing.
Constipation is normally the result of the digestive tract beginning to dissolve and eject toxic materials a hardened coating that has accumulated on the walls for years. With thirty feet to clean (length of the intestine and colon), there is probably a lot of sludge that needs to be eliminated. Again, you will discover lots of causes for constipation and intestinal gas. Fortunately, this won't last forever though it might take a while to clean all the chips, pizza, and burgers out of the system.
Increase your intake of water and get plenty of rest to help the peristalsis process (movement of waste through the intestine and colon) do its job and speed the process of elimination. To help with gas, don't consume high in fat snacks at the same time you drink your green smoothie. Soon, the advantages of the smoothie diet will begin to reveal positive results. Without being too graphic your movements will at some point start to be more frequent (as they should since we eat three meals a day) and be without as much effort. The unwanted gas may carry on for 2 or 3 months as the body continues ridding itself of contaminants. After a while, every thing will return to normal and there won't be any problems.
Give you body time to readjust to the healthy lifestyle you are now subjecting it to and it will soon have you functioning in tip-top shape. I understand some of the side effects when starting to drink fruit/green smoothies sound fairly embarrassing. As with any thorough house cleanup, there's always going to be several messes and dust thrown about during the process. However, you will soon agree the efforts where all worthwhile once things begin to work better than they have in a long while.
