    Cayenne pepper, whole jug of grapefruit juice, aloe vera juice, flaxseed, teas, mineral oil, beans, prunes, and plenty of water will help.. I would go to the doctor to make sure its not obstruction. Coffee will stimulate your digestive track but wont help if your stool is hard. You need to soften it up before trying to pass it or it can cause problems. Straining is really bad for you. DOnt take laxatives, not good for you.

    There are some studies say yes and some no. It also could be a sign of it if there is an obstruction. If there is no bowl movement soon then she should be checked out. It should never be taken lightly.

    My personal view on why i don't go as much is that i am eating so much less. I could easily get through 5000cals a day. I used to go twice a day. Now usually once but sometimes hardly worth the effort. Save it for the next time i say to myself.
    Saying that, i haven't been since yesterday so ate some prunes just now. They usually work for me.
