Struggling with constipation?

When diet + lifestyle aren’t enough, a few options can help get things moving 👇
✨ Stimulants:
Help the gut contract and move. Great short-term fix. BUT watch for cramps + diarrhoea.
🌾 Fibre Supplements
Adds bulk, softens stool, and supports regularity. There are different types of fibre 👇
- Soluble: forms a gel, softens 💧
- Insoluble: adds bulk 🌿
- Fermentable: feeds good gut bacteria 🍎
BUT May cause bloating or gas.

💧 Tip: Stay well-hydrated — fibre won’t work without water!
