Constipation means infrequent stools, bloated stomach;
difficulty passing stools and this can cause abdominal pain and can be very
uncomfortable too. Chemical laxatives
can cause fatigue and other physical damage hence it is advisable to take natural
laxatives that help your body relieve constipation in a safe way.
Early morning as you wake you, have a glass of hot water with
lemon that helps stimulate the liver. For
breakfast you can have banana, porridge, cereals, and fruits for more fibre
content. Eat healthy snacks between
meals as it helps your bowels process food well, i.e. sweet potato, pro-biotic
yoghurt, baked beans, lentil salads.
Include vegetables like broccoli, spinach, green leafy cabbage, chicken
or lean meat, fish and fruits like grapes, apricots, figs, bananas, plums,
peaches and apples. Remember you should always drink plenty of water or barley
juice, decaffeinated tea/coffee.
There are Herbal Laxatives and the
herbs in these have been used throughout the ages to assist with colon
cleansing and support overall digestive health.
