Don’t Just Sit There—Get Things Moving!

Bowel irregularity is more common than most people want to admit. Let’s face it—everybody has to “go,” but sometimes the body struggles to do its job. Diet, medications, food sensitivities, and digestive issues can all play a role.

To help prevent constipation, try adding more foods like apples, beans, nuts, and corn. Corn, in particular, is indigestible and helps move food through your digestive tract. If you’re sensitive to these foods or go long periods without a bowel movement, it’s best to check with a healthcare professional.

Drinking water for hydration, staying active, and responding promptly when nature calls can also make a big difference in keeping things regular.
