Natural Laxatives

Getting old is a bummer. For one, although you may be earning enough to do all the things you wanted to do, your body may not always be cooperating. So, at a time when we can finally afford all those goodies we've always wanted to eat without anyone to stop us, we also have bowel movement issues.

Good thing for us, there are natural laxatives out there. So although I won't take you away from comparing colon cleanse reviews (because some really need extra help beyond what a natural push can provide), here is a list of fruit and vegetables that can help you rid your body of wastes:

~ onions
~ juice of calamansi
~ pineapples
~ buko juice (which is why, if you're on the apple or banana diet, this is the perfect liquid complement)
~ corn
~ mango
~ red bell pepper
~ eggplant
~ red bell pepper
~ okra
~ papaya (if you can't eat it fresh, ingest as fruit shake)

Exchanging your carbs with whole grain substitutes go a long way too! So next time you eat something greasy, make sure you also eat a lot of vegetables and drink a lot of pure fruit juice!
