Now, one expert advises that a hot drink could solve the problem. This is because hot beverages such as coffee, tea - or even a cup of hot water - stimulate the bowel, easing constipation. Dr Felice Schnoll-Sussman, a gastroenterologist at the Weill Medical College of Cornell University, US, said hot drinks widen blood vessels, aiding digestion.
Stool softeners are perhaps the best way to combat constipation and must ideally be taken in small doses with plenty of water. People who suffer from constipation should drink at least 10 to 12 glasses of warm water throughout the day.
