Now, for those of us who hate drugs, let me show you proven home remedies that works like magic.
1. Ginger:
Ginger is a naturally growing plant(rhizome) whose medical benefits are numerous to be overemphasized.
One of its many benefits is its healing ability for constipation and general indigestion.
How to use Ginger to treat constipation:
A. You can chew the ginger rhizomes as much as you can and swallow both the liquid extract and the fibre left in your mouth.
Although it is peppery, the ginger takes not less than 30 to start work once it enters your stomach. However, the time it will take depends on the amount of ginger rhizomes you chew.
NOTE: Before chewing, Scrape the surface of the ginger to reveal the yellowish surface which when tasted in the tongue, is pepperish.
B. If for any reason you can not chew the ginger rhizomes, you can either pound the ginger rhizomes in mortar and then squeeze the pounded ginger and drink the liquid extract and chew the fibre(if you want) or you can blender the ginger in a blender(cut into very small pieces that the blender can work on) and drink everything afterwards.
2. Hot water
As funny as this may sound, drinking hot or warm water really helps to treat constipation and indigestion.
A cup or glass of hot water or warm water can help in such situations.
Taking liquids especially water helps in indigestion. Remember that water is a natural solvent.
3. Eat high fibre fruits.
In previous posts, it was stated that some fruits are very helpful in treating constipation. This is due to their high fibre content.

They include:

Also, eating cereals will help in digestion.
