30 Best Foods for Constipation Relief

Oranges

Oranges are another fibrous fruit that can help move things along. "Citrus fruits such as oranges, tangerines, and grapefruit are great because the fiber stimulates the growth of good colon microbiota/flora and subsequently increase fecal mass," Dr. Levy says. "These fruits are excellent snack and dessert choices for patients with constipation." Definitely a much better than sweet treats made from fiber-stripped refined carbohydrates.
