Prune As Laxative?!


Question:

Prune As Laxative?

Hello. I often have constipation, however, I'd rather use a natural laxative then medicine. I have heard that prunes work very well. I have never used them before, so if anyone has had them, please tell me the results. Also, how long do prunes need to take effect and how many should I eat?


Answers:

Prune juice is one of the better known natural laxatives. Prunes are not only high in potassium, Vitamin A, and iron, but they are also extremely high in both insoluble and soluble fibre. Prunes work efficiently and quickly as natural laxatives. Therefore, just a small amount of prunes is generally all it takes to relieve constipation.
