Constipation: Here are 3 natural remedies that facilitate the evacuation of stools according to a nutritionist
2. Coffee to stimulate the intestines
The doctor admits that it’s not her preferred food for constipation. Therefore, she advises “not to overdo it.” However, she does acknowledge that “caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant. This caffeine can increase stimulation of the intestinal muscles and promote peristalsis, or bowel movements.” Not only does caffeine also have a diuretic effect, it will promote the absorption of water in the urine instead of the colon. As a result, it will leave enough water for stool formation.”
