Diet change: You could benefit from a diet change by increasing the fiber content in your diet. Increase your intak of fruits and vegetables. Increase your intake of raisins, figs, dates and nuts. Reduce the milk and milk products in your diet. Increase the amount of high fiber cereals in your diet as well. Drink 6-8 glasses of water a day. If you need further help consult a nutritionist.
