1. Taking any type of medicine for constipation can be dangerous even if it's natural. Here are a few suggestions that one can follow. Do not try these steps all at once. First step to get relief from constipation is through diet. Eating wheat bran can aid in constipation however to much can irritate the viscera linings and inhibit mineral absorption.

2. Eating foods that are high in fiber can achieve the same as wheat bran but is much safer for the digestive organs. Foods like raw vegetables, dried fruits, whole grains and beans will help to get relief from this problem, constipation.

3. Acidophilus and bifidus in yogurt can aid one to get relief from constipation. Take one to two acidophilus chewables a day or eat one or two yogurts a day. Eating the brand "activia" yogurt is recommended. If you cannot eat yogurt because of lactose intolerance, GNC, SAV-ONS, RITEAID, and WALGREENS has this in chewables.

4. Take green supplements like sun chlorella, blue-green algae, spirulina and pure aloe-vera are excellent ways to get relief from constipation. I have used sun chlorella and within a couple of days, I would get relief. Lots of relief!!

5. Rhubarb, also known as the Turkish celery, is a group of plants that belong to the genus Rheum (the buckwheat family). They are perennial plants that grow from thick short rhizomes, and have long green or reddish leaves. The leaves are very acidic but they are edible when they are cooked and sweetened. Include rhubarb in your diet. One can also get rhubarb extract and put the recommended drops in your favorite smoothie. This is a good natural laxative to relieve constipation.

6. Smoothe move tea aides in constipation as well. Drink a bag everyday until bowels are moving then gradually reduce to once a week or every other week.
