Go Raw With Plums, Pears, and Apples. Constipation can cause you to feel bloated. Eating more raw fruit can be a constipation remedy because fruit, too, is high in dietary fiber. Plums, pears, and apples are good choices because much of the fiber can be found in their edible skins. Plums, pears, and apples are high in pectin, a naturally occurring fiber.
Eat more fiber. You've probably heard it before. But do you know why fiber is so good for your health? Dietary fiber â found mainly in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes â is probably best known for its ability to prevent or relieve constipation. But foods containing fiber can provide other health benefits as well, such as helping to maintain a healthy weight and lowering your risk of diabetes and heart disease.
