NATURAL REMEDY FOR CONSTIPATION
Fiber is an easy and effective natural remedy for constipation.
Between quality fiber and triphala, you can restore balance to your body safely and effectively.
NATURAL CONSTIPATION REMEDIES : FIBER SUPPLEMENTS
High quality fiber supplements are an excellent natural remedy for constipation.
Fiber supplements are a good place to start relieving constipation naturally.
Most of these are going to use Psyllium seed husk, flax seed, pectin, or bran fiber.
One of the best is milled flax seed.
Milled flax seed, such as Forti-flax by Barleans, is a very effective way of increasing dietary fiber.
Just add milled
flax seed to whole grain cereals, organic yogurt or kefir, salads, or smoothies. It doesn't dissolve at all but tastes
good and gets the job done cheaply and effectively.
Other fiber based home remedies for constipation are Fiber Smart from Renew Life, Everyday Fiber System from Rainbow Light,
and Super Seed from Garden of Life. I have used and would recommend all of these.
ANOTHER NATURAL CONSTIPATION REMEDY : TRIPHALA
My all time favorite home remedy for constipation is an eastern Indian herbal formula called Triphala.
Triphala is a combination of herbal foods; chebulic myrobalan,
amla, and belleric myrobalan.
It strengthens and tonifies the colon, detoxifies the liver, and improves digestion. This list
is only the beginning. Triphala is good for nearly every imbalance including high cholesterol, high blood pressure, viruses,
and inflammation. Take my word for it, triphala is a fantastic option.
The powder form of triphala is most effective but
tastes really bitter. If that's your thing, go for it. I have seen great results with the encapsulated form or tablet form.
I would recommend Triphala from Planetary Formulas. Great company and great product.
