Chronic constipation is usually driven by slow gut motility caused by potassium deficiency. Tarsul’s potassium bitartrate and MSM sulfur formula addresses this root cause, supporting regular bowel function over the long term.
Chronic constipation — defined as fewer than three bowel movements per week for more than three months — affects roughly 16% of adults. If you’re in that group, you know that the standard advice (eat more fiber, drink more water, exercise more) rarely solves the problem. Chronic constipation has deeper roots, and addressing it requires getting to those roots.
What Makes Constipation Chronic
Occasional constipation is usually situational — travel, dietary changes, stress, dehydration. Chronic constipation is different. It persists regardless of diet and lifestyle changes because it’s driven by an underlying dysfunction: typically a combination of slow gut motility, mineral deficiency, and gut microbiome imbalance.
Slow gut motility — the rate at which food moves through your digestive tract — is the most common underlying issue. And the most common cause of slow gut motility is potassium deficiency. Without adequate potassium, the smooth muscle of your intestines can’t contract efficiently, and everything slows down.
Why Mineral Support Works for Chronic Constipation
Potassium is the primary mineral that drives intestinal muscle contractions. Most people with chronic constipation are significantly potassium-deficient — not because they’re eating badly, but because modern food is depleted. Since 1940, our soil has lost up to 70% of its mineral content, including potassium.
Tarsul provides potassium bitartrate in a highly bioavailable form. Unlike potassium chloride supplements, potassium bitartrate is a naturally occurring compound that your body processes efficiently. The MSM sulfur in Tarsul supports gut health by reducing inflammation and supporting the bacterial balance that’s essential for healthy digestion.
Long-Term Results
For chronic constipation, consistency is everything. Most people see significant improvement within 2 to 4 weeks of daily Tarsul use. After 2 to 3 months, many people find that their bowel function has normalized to the point where they no longer need to think about it. The key is daily use — not occasional supplementation when symptoms flare.

The most common cause is slow gut motility driven by potassium deficiency. Other contributing factors include gut microbiome imbalance, gut inflammation, and insufficient dietary fiber.
Most people see improvement within 2 to 4 weeks. Full normalization of bowel function typically occurs over 2 to 3 months of consistent daily use.
Yes. Even long-standing chronic constipation responds to mineral support when the underlying deficiency is addressed. The longer the deficiency has persisted, the longer it may take to fully resolve.
Yes. Daily use is important for chronic constipation. Occasional supplementation won’t maintain the mineral levels needed to support consistent gut motility.
