@thestomachdoc: Top 10 natural laxative fruits to help you poop If you’re constipated, fruit can be one of the easiest places to start. Certain fruits naturally contain fiber, sorbitol, pectin, water, and other compounds that can help soften stool, add bulk, pull more water into the intestines, and support more regular bowel movements. That’s why some fruits can work almost like a gentle natural laxative, especially when constipation is related to low fiber intake, dehydration, or slower digestion. They also help feed your good gut bacteria, support the gut microbiome, and improve overall gut health while helping you get more fiber into your day. Just remember that more is not always better. Eating a huge amount at once can cause gas, bloating, cramping, or diarrhea, especially if your body isn’t used to much fiber. If you’re trying to poop more regularly, start with a few of these and make sure you’re drinking enough water too.
