Water And The Pill In Constipation,what Works..?

Constpation is a condition largely based on dehydration as well. Drinking two large glasses of warm water on rising will stimulate the production of motillin and encourage the bowels to move. Also the presence of adequate water will make stool softer and more easily evacuated. Extra fiber also helps but fiber without the extra water will only make the condition worse.

It is an interesting thought, completely in harmony with latest research in physiology, that when a patient is taking a pill with a glass of water, it may be the water that helps and not the pill!
