5. Drink more coffee
Not only does coffee put a pep in your step, but it can also put the go in your stool. For many people, coffee, especially caffeinated coffee, increases the urge to have a bowel movement. The reason? –
Coffee actually stimulates the muscles in the digestive system, which increases peristalsis activity, and helps to move your stool through the digestive tract, through the colon, and out through the rectum. Plus, coffee could also contain a small amount of finer, which can also help to get things going.
So, try drinking some more coffee to ease your constipation.
