what is the best way to avoid constipation?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Water is the most important factor. At least 60 oz of clean water ever day. More depending on alcohol, caffeine intake or activity level.
Getting exercise and avoiding sugar and flour/gluten products is huge in com batting constipation.
Chewing your food many times helps as well as taking a digestive enzyme before meals helps immensely.
Do you eat dairy? Maybe you're intolerant to casein.
High quality aloe juice or fresh Aloe Vera is THE best natural laxative on the planet.
Young live coconut water is an Amazing Natural laxative.

Remember that it is important to exercise regularly as well as eating healthily (as you obviously are) but if you have been suffering from this for years, I would say visit your doctor. There is no reason to be embarrassed because doctors have seen it all before and will probably put you on some sort of medication. Good luck :)

Experience

Heard of pressure points?
when you press the centre of your palm you can get rid off the constipation
another way is our thought pattern if you are not able to release your old stuborn belief you get constipation
just think of any thing even it a simple one try to get rid of it you can see the difference

I suffered from it for years as well. For me is was a combination of things that caused it. Medications I was on were part of the cause. Also I was not exercising enough.

Try prunes, prune juice, and other foods/drinks high in fiber. They have oatmeals, breads, etc that are specifically high in fiber. Also look into adding fish oil and flaxseed oil.

What Really made the difference for me is magnesium. I was instructed by my acupuncturist about its use for constipation. It worked wonders. I had tried things like miralax, etc, with no luck. Magnesium works.

Drink lots of water everyday and eat plenty of fibre. Eating prunes and drinking prune juice can be very good for relieving constipation. Don't drink too much prune juice unless you have a lot of free time and a toilet nearby!

Avoid red meats, fatty foods and sugar.
Eat lots of veggies, fruit and drink water!
Fiber, fiber fiber!

drink water - lots of it at various intervals during the day. and prunes :) if that doesn't do the trick then you may need a stool softener

Water and fiber make sure you are taking probiotics. Maybe a colon flush would be a good idea.

There are natural herbal tablets that might help with it. Go to your local natural health shop and ask.

do you take any medication? a lot of pain meds cause constipation. if so you will need to take stool softeners with it.
