Prunes are often considered as nature s remedy for curing constipation.

It is true to a certain extent that sufficient quantity of fibre in the diet can prevent constipation. But if you are already suffering from constipation, then increasing your intake of dietary fibre cannot alone help your condition or improve it. It is good to increase the intake of fruits and vegetables gradually so that your body gets used to it. Aloe vera is a good ayurvedic remedy that can improve your condition and make your bowel movements more regular.

The requirements of the body of every individual are different. While a person may go to void his bowel twice in a day, other people may be comfortable going to the washroom once in a couple of days. It is considered safe if you void your bowels at least once in 3 days. However, if you clear intestines once a week, then you have been going through severe constipation. Certain ayurvedic remedies like triphala powder can resolve the problem of chronic constipation.

Overuse of this remedy is not highly recommended as it can make it more difficult for your body to absorb vital nutrients and minerals.
