10 Foods That Help With Constipation
Helpful Food #7: Kefir
Kefir is a type of milk that has been fermented. It originated somewhere in the Caucasus Mountains and its name originates from a Turkish word that means pleasant taste. Some people enjoy kefir as a drink, although it can also be used with breakfasts and even as a salad dressing.
Kefir is a probiotic. This means that it contains “good” bacteria that are beneficial for our digestive system. One study has shown that people that drank or ate kefir regularly experienced more regular movements than usual. A study in rats also showed that kefir was beneficial when it came to passing stools.
