Hi Mikki,

Prunes and raisins are excellent choices for constipation. However there are a multitude of other food options and natural supplements that may prove to be just as good or better, for the reluctant prune eater.

Posted below are just a few other approaches I found for relieving constipation:

Psyllium
Barley/Oatmeal
Beans
Raw Fruits or Veggies (loaded with digestive enzymes)
Raw Honey (also has powerful digestive enzymes in it's raw form)
Apple Cider Vinegar
Exercising regularly
Probiotics (supplement)
Digestive Enzymes (supplement)

NOTE: Bitter-tasting foods also help stimulate the digestive tract

I hope this info helps! Does anyone else have more items to add to the list?
