Fiber-rich foods include fruits, cereals, whole grain bread, and vegetables such as cabbage, carrots, asparagus, and Brussels sprouts. Adding fiber to your diet plan speeds up the process of passing stools through intestines. To know the correct amount of fiber intake, consult with a healthcare specialist. Your health care provider will recommend a specific amount of fiber to consume each day.<br \/>\n\u2022 <strong>Drink plenty of water:<\/strong> Drink at least eight glasses of water a day. Avoid consuming soft drinks and coffee as these have a dehydrating effect.<br \/>\n\u2022 <strong>Exercise regularly:<\/strong> Plan an exercise program.

However, in cases where dietary and lifestyle changes will not work may be prescribed with laxatives or enemas for a limited period. If you are one of these people, then your doctor will evaluate you to determine your regular laxative need and will prescribe the best one for you. These medications can help retain a chronically sluggish bowel. The following are the laxative forms that may be recommended by your doctor:<\/p>\n<p>1. Stool softeners such as docusate sodium, one of the commonly recommended constipation cure<\/p>\n<p>2. Osmotic laxatives such as magnesium hydroxide and polyethylene glycol<\/p>\n<p>3.
