Organic Mini-Wheats
mlj3 in Tuscaloosa, AL -
I bought a box of these because I love frosted mini-wheats and thought I'd go even healthier and try organic. They were so good I ate half the box (in milk) in one morning! Later that day, I started wondering if I may be getting a stomach virus because I'd had about 5 BM's. It wasn't until the next day that I realized it was the organic mini-wheats!! I rarely have constipation, but I'll never forget to reach for them if I do!!

Probiotics
Bob in Washington State, USA -
Take a probiotic supplement (loads of “friendly” bacteria) so that your intestinal tract (lining) can repair itself. You’ll need something that has a variety of types of “friendly” bacteria – not just 2 or 3 strains that most off-the-shelf yogurt contains.
Find a supplement that contains close to 15 billion (yes, billion) active cells per dose and as many strains as possible – say, 12-15 or more. Take these religiously and be patient. There are many sources out there. Scrutinize them and find a good one. I like “Flora Source TM“ a probiotic manufactured by Nutri-Health TM Supplements of Cottonwood, AZ. There number is 1-800-914-6311. I have no financial interest in directing you to Nutri-Health TM. Whether you use this product or another high quality probiotic – start this regimen right away and you should get some relief.

Alfalfa Capsules
Laurie in North Texas -All my life I've had a sluggish elimination system. I've tried everything, from acidophilus products, Fibersure, Citracell, Flax, prune juice, but nothing seemed to help for more than a few weeks if at all. Sometimes would go for 5-6 days without eliminating. The only thing I have found that keeps me regular are alfalfa capsules. Alfalfa is a wonderful source of fiber, countless vitamins and minerals, as well as great for the lymphatic system. Started taking them as part of a health regimen to help with cellulite elimination which seems to be working too! (Go to www.t-tapp.com for more info). You can find them online or in healthfood stores. These have definitely helped me in more than one area!

Magnesium
Anonymous in Bronx, NY -My doctor recommended taking a teaspoon of magnesium with 8 oz. of warm water or juice and it really worked. I took powdered magnesium, mixed it with hot water so it dissolved than added more liquid. My doc recommended taking it every half hour until not needed anymore. I found it very helpful.

Aloe Vera juice
Kristina in Tucson, AZ USA -My accupuncturist recommends drinking approx. 1/3 cup of aloe juice daily, either the thick, jello-ish kind or liquid type is fine. Tastes OK, a bit sour--add a bit of water or juice to thin it out. It really does help me, and I've had a pretty chronic situation over the years before discovering this.

Whole flax seed
Sarah Dawley in NM -When nothing else works, I find that eating 2-4 Tablespoons of raw flax seed will guarantee a good bm. Flax also has tons of omega 3s, its good stuff. I also cook raw flax with my rice... plumps up nicely and adds a nice nutty flavour.

Cure for constipation
Rose in Harrisburg, PA -I'm pregnant and I drink this "pregnancy tea" every morning or if you are not pregnant. (2 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 1 tbsp blackstrap molasses in a 8oz glass of warm water). This is a cure for constipation, fatigue and also clears up 97% of your complexion. This really works. God is good.
