I've been getting constipated lately. what are some foods and drinks that help the digestive system.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diet and exercise: Both diet and exercise are important for bowel function. Eating three meals a day, including one with a large salad and vegetables, and a cup of fruit, along with 6 large glasses of water will help. In addition, daily exercise and coffee have been shown to improve the gut motility and bowel movement.
