Prune juice is the only thing that'll work for me for constipation, but it's NAS!
Question:
Prune juice is the only thing that'll work for me for constipation, but it's NASTY,. What will make it better?
Is there anything I can mix with it to make it taste a little bit better, or will mixing something with it make it less effective in relieving the constipation? I've tried just about everything I know that's out there for constipation. I've tried:
Benefiber - loved this stuff becuz it worked even better than the prune juice at 1st, but after a few days, it suddenly stopped working for me
Metamucil and Citrucel - didn't work at all for me
laxatives - these work sometimes and sometimes they don't. For example I was recommended Mineral Oil by one of my doctors for the constipation and I took the maximum dosage allowed in one day, which is 3 tblsps. and it had no effect on me whatsoever
- I've also tried Rx medicines like Zelnorm and they had no effect.
So basically I'm stuck with the nasty prune juice but everytime I bring the cup of prune juice near my mouth, I feel like I wanna puke. Not just from the horrible smell of it but the taste too. What can I do to make it taste better?
Answers:
Try eating plums instead of drinking the prune juice...prunes are just dried up plums anyways but plums taste better ;)
