    I had been experiencing chronic constipation since childhood. Tried a lot of medicines and each one would stop working after a while. So I took onto some natural things that really really helped me beat it…

    Here we go:
    1) Flaxseeds:
    Flaxseeds are rich in omega 3. A spoonful of these seeds twice per day after each meal helps digest the food. I personally didn’t like to chew the seeds so; another way out is to roast them a little bit to make it completely dry, grind it, store this powder and take a spoonful twice per day.

    2) Each morning some abdominal exercises. I prefer to do Yoga as I’m not a gym person.

    3) Early to bed, early to rise
    I had been doing night shifts for 3 years and due to this I used to face chronic constipation. Since I took up on regular day job, I can count on fingers the times I had to take medicine to pooh..:-) in the past 6 months.

    4) Drink a lot of water:
    Especially one hour after the meal. Avoid drinking water right before and after the meals.
    Drinking water after the bath, before going off to sleep and while waking up helps a lot.

    5) A fruit bowl per day is a must – is what I’m following currently too.

    Hope this helps!

    Cheers and stay blessed:-)

    I too have had lifelong problems with IBS with constipation. I have been told numerous times : fiber, fluids, exercise. If it were that easy, I wouldn’t have a problem. I finally found a doctor who experiences the same problem and she suggested Amitiza. I did a lot of research and was hesitant to try it, but It is the only thing that has ever worked consistently for me. Fortunately I do not have any of the side effects that some have. Hope this will help some who really have done everything and still have problems.
