The 5 Most Laxative Foods in the World: Natural Remedies to Combat Constipation

🫘 3. Chia Seeds

Tiny seeds with massive fiber power.

Chia seeds absorb water and form a gel-like consistency, which can help soften stool and promote regularity. Just 1 ounce (about 2 tablespoons) of chia seeds contains a whopping 10 grams of fiber — most of it insoluble.

✅ How to use:

• Add to smoothies, oatmeal, yogurt, or make chia pudding
• Drink plenty of water to avoid any digestive discomfort

Pro tip: Let them soak before eating to help your body digest them better.

🌾 4. Oats

A breakfast staple that keeps you regular.

Oats are rich in beta-glucan, a type of soluble fiber that not only supports healthy cholesterol levels but also acts as a mild natural laxative. They help create a soft, gel-like stool and feed beneficial gut bacteria — improving digestion over time.

✅ How to use:

• Eat a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast (add flaxseed or berries for an extra boost)
• Choose steel-cut or old-fashioned oats over instant varieties for more fiber

Bonus: Oats are gentle on the stomach and suitable for sensitive digestive systems.
