    - Good, balanced nutrition

    - probiotics from things like yogurt and non-pasteurized fermented foods (i.e. I make my own kraut)...if it's pasteurized though, all of those probiotics get cooked out.

    -balanced macros
    -8+ cups of water per day (good filtered water)
    -FLORA - fermented foods like kimchee, yogurt and kombucha
    -acidophilus - invest in the good refrigerated kind, make sure it has several billion live cultures
    -warm water with half a lemon in the morn
    -greens and foods high in chlorophyll, like spirulina, kale, spinach and leafy veg

    I mean, I take a natural fiber supplement 3x a day because I have IBS... but if you're not pooping enough, take a probiotic, drink more water and eat more fiber. Nothing more to it but that. Sorry if you don't like the answers.

    Plenty of raw fruit and veg, I have the opposite problem and have been told to cook and peel my veg more when it's bad.

    Also, prunes.

    "Wow small intestine, you really took care of that pasta today with minimal bloating. Thank you for that!"

    It is a toss up between probiotics and the compliments. Be kind to your colon and it will do its job. And please, do not consume SUper Colon Blow without a doctor's note. That is all.

    2 table spoons of chia seeds stired or shaken in water. add a liitle juice for flavor, drink everday, it will take a little time to get started but once you commit, you will be "relieved"

    If your diary is accurate you are not consistently getting enough fiber. You should also double check the amount of fiber in an apple. 6 per apple sounds high unless you are eating the core.

    Also try and eat it throughout the day. I have had stomach issues when I eat too much at once or yo-yo a lot day to day.

    Fiber one chewy granola bars and Luna Fiber bars are petty good, Fiber One's chocolate cereal is good with yogurt or peanut butter.
