5. Rhubarb
Rhubarb is often used to relieve constipation, due to its natural laxative powers. A stalk of rhubarb has 1 gram of fiber. This plant also packs a powerful compound called sennoside A and, if you’re struggling with constipation, you may have heard about sennosides capsules and tablets.
Sennoside A acts as a natural laxative by minimizing the levels of a protein called aquaporin 3 responsible for controlling water transport in your intestines. As a result, you will have normal bowel movements.
Add a little bit of flavor to your Greek yogurt using rhubarb! Or, if you like baking, make a rhubarb pie.
