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

Yogurt

Dairy is a highly inflammatory food that usually causes constipation; however, yogurt is the exception to this rule because of its high probiotic content. Probiotics are the 'good' bacteria the gut needs to promote regularity. Individuals should look for yogurt containing a good amount of probiotics, but they should be careful of added sugar, as this increases inflammation, which is a common cause of constipation. Yogurt can be eaten plain, with berries as a snack, or added to smoothies for a healthy breakfast.
