Constipation Home Remedy #6: Glucomannan
Glucomannan is a type of water-soluble fiber that is derived from konjac root. It has been shown to be beneficial for those with constipation. A study on children with constipation found that glucomannan helped 45 percent of the participants.
Besides improving bowel movements, it has also been found to function as a prebiotic and helps with the balance of good bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. Besides taking a glucomannan supplement, it can also be found in shirataki noodles.
