Answer 2

Try cod liver oil from a health food store. I know it sounds bad but some of the oils now come in flavors. As long as you take it with food it isn't to bad.

Answer 3

Magnesium supplements work pretty well, but take about a day to kick in so don't over-do while you're waiting or you'll be sorry. The basics to solve constipation, though, are increase fluid (mostly water) and fiber intake.

Answer 4

One word... Cherries. Eat about a pound of cherries. You'll be going for at least an hour (on an off of course) They have to be fresh though. Canned or merichino dont work.

Answer 5

I have a home remedy book and it advises to take 3 tablespoons of olive oil...It works really good and without cramping.

Answer 6

Do you have epsom salt? Use 2-4 tablespoons with water. Its nasty. Itll take two hours to kick in and then youll be going another two hours.

Answer 7

Drink lots of strong coffee or prune juice.

Answer 8

depends why you want this i guess.
if for cleanseing purposes, use cascara sagrada or a remedy with this in it. you can take it as a tea but it tastes awful, so i recommend capsules.
don't use senna as its habit forming and your body becomes dependent on it.

Answer 9

prune juice

Answer 10

I find that eating Licorice helps...and it tastes pretty good too. :)
