How to get rid of constipation

China grass (Agar –Agar) constipation remedies

China grass also known as agar-agar is an effective gentle laxative for relieving constipation.

Agar-Agar is a dried seaweed. Cut it into bits and cook in milk. Add some sugar and a little food flavor to give it taste.

It resembles gelatin after being cooked. Set it at room temperature and use it as a vegetarian pudding, or to thicken soups and jellies.

It also works well with children. You may be able to find China grass (agar-agar) in Chinese and Indian stores or online stores.

Onion shoots with oil or ghee

Cut a cupful of onion shoots in pieces, and fry them in a table spoon of oil or ghee and eat it with your food.

This remedy prevents food fermentation and rotting in the intestines, and eliminates waste matter easily.

Spinach for constipation relief

Spinach is beneficial for intestinal organs. It promotes intestinal movements.

Soak spinach in hot water for about 3 minutes, season it with sesame oil and eat at meal.

Constipation due to indigestion

Take a teaspoon of fresh lime juice with a teaspoon of fresh ginger juice.

Add a little rock salt, sugar and warm water and drink it for digestion and abdominal pain.
