Whole grains are another natural choice for relieving constipation. Similar to other natural constipation relief foods, they are chock full of insoluble fiber and help increase the speed at which foods pass through the digestive system. Combined with proper hydration, these hearty foods can help relieve constipation quickly and gently. In addition to constipation relief, foods containing whole grains can reduce an individual's risk of certain illnesses such as heart disease, cancer, and obesity. Whole grains can be found in a wide variety of foods, such as corn, rice, quinoa, and barley, making it easy to get the daily recommended amount and maximum effectiveness for constipation relief.
