Suggest Treatment For Constipation

My son, age 20, is having constipation problems. He wants to treat it naturally and eats a very healthy diet. When he is constipated he feels like he can't eat and generally feels bad. Any suggestions for non prescription remedies? He eats plenty of fiber and doesn't think he needs a supplement in that area.

Hai,

skipping food,un time food(late night heavy food), Taking junk food,caffeinated drinks, no fiber diet all leads to mess your stomach and intestine.

Follow the below advise to healthybowel mevements
take warm water in morning empty stomach-1 liter
your whole day diet should be mixed with carbohydrates,vegetables,fruits,protein.
regularity in intake of food. take any one fiber fruit per day. like apple,orange,guava,watermelon etc
Take water around 4-5 liters. hydration should be maintained for free bowel movements.


Don't take heavy food in night.(full stomach with fried,complex diet)
Take as earlier around 7-8 pm.
Don't go to bed immediately after take food. leave a gap for 2 hours.

Regards
