If you mean a natural, effective remedy for constipation, try:
-
Drink more water throughout the day.
-
Increase fiber gradually: fruits (especially prunes/kiwi), vegetables, oats, and whole grains.
-
Prunes or prune juice can be particularly helpful because they contain fiber and sorbitol.
-
Walk or exercise regularly, which can stimulate bowel movements.
-
Try going to the toilet after breakfast, without straining, and don’t ignore the urge.
If constipation is persistent, severe, or accompanied by blood in the stool, vomiting, severe abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, or inability to pass gas, seek medical care.
