Drink This Healthy Fat To Make Yourself Poop Instantly
By JENNIFER ANANDANAYAGAM
Hours — or sometimes days — of constipation can be painful and time-consuming. However, there is a simple remedy that is both natural and safe.
The fats in olive oil can instantly get things moving because they activate your digestive system, soften the stools, and smooth the bowel, making the whole process easier.
Gastroenterologist Dr. Priyanka Singh suggests drinking a tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil in the morning. It can be mixed into coffee, orange juice, milk, or taken on its own.
Adding olive oil to your daily diet can be beneficial but if you have existing health conditions, like irritable bowel syndrome or diabetes, consult your healthcare provider first.
