10 Foods That Help With Constipation
Helpful Food #4: Apples
An apple a day keeps the doctor away, and in more ways than one, it would seem. They are packed with the kind of vitamins that help to prevent us from falling ill, which is how the saying came about. They could also help prevent visits to the doctor for problems with constipation.
Apple skins are a very good source of fiber, whereas they are also a good source of pectin. Both of these are able to keep things running smoothly where digestion is concerned. Studies on rats have also shown that apples are able to make stools more frequent, and healthier.
