Foods That Make You Poop: What To Eat When You're Constipated

Popcorn

Popcorn made the cut on this list because it contains approximately one gram of fiber per cup along with only thirty-one calories, making it a healthier snack option than most. However, individuals who consume popcorn who are looking to reduce their constipation should be sure not to add too much salt or butter to the popcorn as this will actually make constipation worse. To make a healthier snack, individuals can try air popping it and topping it with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of Himalayan sea salt on top. Other healthy toppings for popcorn include cayenne pepper, raw nuts, herbs, and nutritional yeast.
