Aloe vera juice

Most people are very well aware of the healing properties of aloe vera juice, but did you know that it can help you with constipation?

The juice of this plant, besides having tons of antioxidants, also increases intestinal motility. This means your intestines will do a better job at moving food around, and as a result, your bowel movements will become more regular. This can make a significant difference if you’re dealing with constipation!

All the natural compounds found in aloe vera, such as anthraquinones, are believed to have a mild laxative effect. The FDA does not officially recognize it as a proven or safe method for relieving constipation, and this is why you should discuss it with your doctor before.

But you can find aloe juice at many supermarkets and still drink it to see if it has any effect on you. Drinking it in normal amounts will not do any harm, and there is a chance it will help you feel better.
