I eat one prune per day and it works great. Chew thoroughly and drink a nice glass or bottle of water with it.

Been on miralax for years. Going to try some others. Just to see if I can find improvement.

Magnesium is a great help! I drink the CALM brand. Most people are deficient in Mag.

Colace and senna have both helped me a bunch over the years for constipation. Make sure to talk with your doctor though! Good luck!! ❤️

For me, fiber supplements also help, probably also something you can toss in your coffee in the morning. I take little gummies which work well for me, but if you want something stronger Metamucil has a lot of options for fiber. Hope this helps!
