What are Laxative Foods

Laxative foods stimulate peristalsis of the colon, favoring or accelerating the evacuation of faeces. This category includes vegetables, honey, legumes, fruit, beer, milk, black bread and broth.

The laxative effect of food cannot be separated from the generous consumption of water.

Among the most effective laxative foods we remember tamarind and cassia, generally taken in the form of jam or syrup. Moving to our latitudes, the laxative food par excellence is given by prunes (in case of stubborn constipation, it is advisable to immerse them in a glass of water in the evening, consuming them when you wake up together with the residual liquid and a spoonful of honey) Other laxative foods are blackberries, grapes, figs, licorice, peaches, potatoes, kiwis and all foods particularly rich in fiber (flax seeds, oats, spelled, carrots, etc.).
