Kefir
Kefir is a fermented milk product. Kefir is rich in probiotics. These beneficial intestinal bacteria aid digestion. A study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that probiotics may help relieve constipation symptoms. They increase the frequency and duration of stool movements and their consistency. It also decreases the time it takes for the digestive tract to work properly. Futura Sciences claims that kefir can be added to smoothies and used to treat related conditions. It is not recommended to consume it in large amounts as it can cause diarrhea and abdominal discomfort.
