I Waved My Magic Wand And Chanted, "Hemorrhoids Be Gone!"

One woman's humorous account of how she got rid of hemorrhoids!
Oh, you poor thing! Do you have hemorrhoids too? I know first hand just how horrible it can be.

I didn’t really think I ate that badly. I mean, sure I enjoy eating junk food, especially fried chicken and fries, but only about once per week. And yes, I like eating chocolate and ice cream, but doesn’t everyone? I didn’t think eating chocolate and ice cream every day would be that bad for me!

But then I started having problems when I was on the toilet. I just couldn’t get that bowel movement out! And then I started seeing bright red blood on the toilet paper. Yuck!

But I did occasionally eat a piece of fruit and I had about two serves of vegetables every day. And I’ve been eating one or two slices of whole grain bread each day for years! Surely that would be enough fiber in my diet?

Unfortunately not, it would seem. I was too embarrassed to go to the doctor about it, although I know I should have. I imagined the doctor would say to eat more "roughage" - that’s fiber to you - after he poked and prodded my bottom.

And then, those mean hemorrhoids suddenly went away on their own. Hooray! But unfortunately my joy was shortlived as they came back after a few weeks and it was blood on the toilet paper all over again.

"Right, you nasty hemorrhoids," I told them, while I was sitting on the toilet, trying not to strain too much. "I’ve had enough of you. Hemorrhoids be gone!"

And be gone they did after a couple of weeks. What was my secret? Eating five to seven serves of fresh fruit and vegetables each day. I already drank a lot of water, so I didn’t have to increase my water intake as well. And sometimes I’d add a chopped up prune to my high fiber cereal at breakfast.

Making sure my my fiber intake was at least 25g per day helped my hemorrhoids be gone. You can do this by looking at the nutrition panel on food packets and seeing how much fiber there is per serve. So what are you waiting for? Say goodbye to hemorrhoids too!
