If you’re looking for a natural way to relieve constipation, a few everyday foods and habits may help soften stools and make bowel movements easier.
1. Kiwi fruit 🥝
Eating 2 kiwis daily may help improve bowel movements and stool consistency.
2. Prunes
Try 4–6 prunes daily. They contain fiber and sorbitol, which can help draw water into the bowel.
3. Water and fiber
Drink enough water and gradually increase fiber through oats, vegetables, fruit, and whole grains.
A few additional tips
-
Walk for 10–20 minutes daily.
-
Try sitting on the toilet after breakfast without straining.
-
Avoid suddenly adding large amounts of fiber if you have severe bloating or abdominal pain.
Important: Seek urgent medical care if constipation comes with severe abdominal pain, vomiting, a swollen abdomen, or inability to pass gas.
