Constipation natural cures 

Constipation is caused by bad dietary practices and a lack of regular exercise. Constipation should be taken very seriously since this leads to other, more serious problems. Constipation is the first step towards the development of piles. Very often medication can cause constipation so if you are on some medicines, you should consult your doctor.

Constipation can be tackled by changing your dietary habits. You should stop eating food that contains white flour. You should use whole wheat flour and switch to multi grain breads. Your food should include more fruits and vegetables rather than cooked food. Red meat and spices should be completely avoided. Vegetables like potatoes, sweet potatoes should be eaten in moderation. On the other hand you can eat lots of green leafy vegetables, radish, and fruits like papaya, guavas, and mangoes. Drink two tablespoons of radish juice at bedtime for a week. A cup of warm milk will also help you.  Warm water with a tablespoon of honey mixed in it is another effective remedy. If you are not drinking sufficient water this could be the reason for constipation. Drink water, fruit juices and buttermilk. Stress is one important reason for the development of constipation so you will need to combat stress with relaxation techniques. Regular exercise will also keep you healthy and fit.
