Bryonia
When it is due to dryness of the intestinal tract and the stools are
large, dry and brown, as if burnt, and are passed with a great deal of
difficulty, owing to an atony of the intestines.
Nux vomica
Nux vom.
produces an increased intestinal action, which is irregular, inharmonious and
spasmodic, and this hinders rather than favors an evacuation.

Opium besides Bryonia have
constipation with atony of the intestines.
Constipation of Opium is due to
complete inactivity of the bowels, owing to a muscular paresis.
Under opium the faces become impacted and are passed in little, hard, dry,
black balls, and there is absolutely no urging to stool.
Plumbum
Persons with an excess of Lead are dark and
heavy, rather sombre or gloomy, rather depressed or maybe a control-freak;
'don't touch that, it's mine!', etc. They like coffee, dark clothes, winter,
night-time and gloomy or highly structured music. They tend to be rather
conservative and love structure and strict time guidelines, etc. They can be
uptight and intolerant especially of interference from others, which they
dislike. They are often too wrapped up in themselves to bother much about
others. They fail to see how others can't also lead a strict and orderly life.
They tend to be very serious, to think too much and to dwell in the past. Jobs
like architects, bankers, accountants, solicitors. They are rather conservative
and set in their ways. They dislike change and upset of any kind. Interested in
politics. The lead type needs to loosen up a bit and develop more spontaneous
joy. It is chiefly mellowed and improved through gold, copper, tin or silver.
