Simple Constipation Relief Drink
The image claims to “remove stuck poop,” but there isn’t a drink that safely cleans out old stool from the colon. A gentler option is a prune-based drink, which can help with occasional constipation.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (240 ml) prune juice
- ½ cup warm water
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Mix the prune juice, warm water, and lemon juice.
- If using chia seeds, stir them in and let the drink sit for 5–10 minutes.
- Drink slowly and follow with another glass of water.
- Keep drinking fluids throughout the day.
Tip: Regular fiber from fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes plus adequate fluids can help prevent constipation.
If constipation is severe, lasts several days, or comes with severe abdominal pain, vomiting, blood in the stool, or significant swelling, seek medical care rather than using a “colon cleanse.”
