25 Foods To Eat To Avoid Constipation

16. Cruciferous Vegetables

Cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower, broccoli, kale, Brussels sprouts, and bok choy are considered super foods. Aside from being high in fiber, they also contain vitamins and minerals that can even be cancer-fighting. They have the ability to help deal with constipation, as well as aid in keeping constipation at bay. But similar to beans, eating too much of these cruciferous vegetables have a gassy effect, so those that aren’t used to having this type of roughage in their system should limit how much they eat until their system adjusts.
