Summary Of Foods That Relieve Constipation

First and foremost, we must include fibre in our list of foods that relieve constipation. In the US, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of fibre is 25 grams.

Besides fibre, it is necessary to have enough water in your system to help move it through your digestive system, which is about eight 12 ounce glasses of water daily.

Physicians are finding that the more fibre rich food is eaten, diseases such as hemorrhoids, appendicitis, ulcerative colitis and constipation tend to disappear.

Dr. Emanuel Cheraskin of the University of Alabama Dental School and author of 13 books on diet and disease, says that a high fibre diet with help prevent heart disease, colon cancer, gallstones, stomach ailments, hemorrhoids and blood clots.
