apple, cabbage, carrots

  • An apple a day prevents both constipation and diarrhea. When constipated, a baked apple at night, followed by another baked apple for breakfast is known to do the trick well.
  • Cabbage promotes increased bowel movements – 5 cups of shredded cabbage twice a week, raw or cooked, is suggested.
  • Carrots clear up constipation, even more effectively so if combined in the same meal with cabbage. Some Cole Slaw recipes contain both ingredients.
