Leafy Greens
Leafy greens like spinach, kale, and collards contain magnesium, which helps soften stools, making them easier to pass. So apparently, kale isn’t just another food trend but one of nature’s best natural laxatives.
Figs
Figs are another perfect example that has a natural laxative effect. Whether fresh or dried, figs have properties that help treat constipation and keep your bowel movements working correctly. They are rich in fiber, promoting proper digestion.
Pro Tip: Eat 2 to 3 fresh figs but with the skin. The skin contains most of the fiber and calcium. If you prefer dried figs, soak them in water for a few hours before eating.
