Emptying once every two weeks?
A thousand times no.

Without a doubt this is one of the most bothersome symptoms our body can emit.
A person suffering from constipation will not only experience abdominal pain and an unpleasant feeling of fullness, but it can also significantly affect his mood.
The encouraging part of the phenomenon is that in most cases treatment of constipation can be carried out at home, with the help of a few small dietary adjustments.
But before we get to the list of wonder foods, a little clarification: If the constipation lasts more than three weeks, if the constipation is severe and does not respond to standard treatments and if the constipation is accompanied by blood in the stool, weight loss, fever or weakness - consult a doctor.

prunes
The first food to jump to the top of the list (Photo: ShutterStock)
Fresh or dried plums are probably the first food to jump to the top of this list and not just any.
There is a very good reason why they are an effective solution in case of constipation: they are full of fiber and also contain fructose and sorbitol, fermenting sugars that can cause a vigorous bowel movement.
You can also soak the prunes in water overnight and drink the liquids in the morning.
Legumes
Filled with dietary fiber.

Legumes are loaded with excellent nutrients, but it is the presence of fiber in them that brings them to the current list.
Soluble and insoluble fiber improves the passage of feces in the colon and contributes to the microbiome in the digestive tract.
Experts recommend consuming at least 25 grams daily as a solution.
Foods especially rich in fiber include not only beans and lentils, but also bran, oats, almonds, barley, many vegetables and fresh and dried fruits.
All of these foods can be home remedies for constipation.
If you suffer from constipation and have increased your fiber intake, be sure to drink more water than usual to keep your stools soft.

Here is another dried fruit that can really help your outings.
Raisins are rich in fiber, but they also contain tartaric acid which has a laxative effect.
Cherries and apricots are also rich in dietary fiber and can help against constipation.
If you eat these fruits with a bowl of yogurt you are even helping the digestive system with the added benefits of soothing probiotics in the gut.
Water with lemon
Relieving constipation.

Increasing the amount of water you drink along with dietary fiber intake can significantly alleviate a feeling of constipation.
H2O absorption causes the intestines to function more efficiently and bring you to a feeling of relief faster.
We all know how to recite from sleep that we should drink between 8 and 10 glasses a day, but only a few make it a point.
In addition, the citric acid in lemon juice stimulates the digestive system and can help flush toxins from the body, thus providing relief from constipation.
coffee
It is worthwhile to help accelerate the activity of the digestive system.

Although the mechanism is not entirely clear, one of the theories is that caffeine may help accelerate the activity of the digestive system.
Caffeine is a substance that has stimulating effects in general, and just as it affects the central nervous system, it can also stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible, among other things, for digestion.
Caffeine can encourage the movement of the gastrointestinal tract, known as peristalsis.
It actually increases the contraction movements of the small intestine and colon until it eventually causes the need to go to the toilet.
Aloe vera drink
A plant with laxative properties.

Aloe vera is considered a plant with laxative properties, it stimulates the walls of the intestine and causes diarrhea, so it is also suitable for people suffering from severe constipation.
Molasses
One teaspoon a day before bed.

Molasses, which is actually a by-product of the sugar production process, consists of simple carbohydrates, water and a significant amount of calcium, magnesium, potassium and iron and one teaspoon before bed should help you relieve constipation.
Chia seeds
Addition of dietary fiber.

They may be small, but they are bastards and can give you just the amount of dietary fiber you need.
Chia seeds are known to be satiating, due to their amazing absorbency - each such grain can absorb water in excess of 10 times its weight, thus not only leaving you seventy for a longer time, but making it easier to pass stool.
Just be sure to drink water with them.
