25 Foods To Eat To Avoid Constipation

19. Apples

As the saying goes “an apple a day keeps the doctor away,” and this is true for more reasons than one. Apples are low calorie yet they have loads of vitamin C and potassium. And one medium sized apple has around 4 grams of fiber too. Similar to pears, they contain loads of gut benefits including fiber and water. They are also linked to weight loss, have cancer-fighting properties, and lessens the risk of diabetes. When eating them raw, be sure to leave the skin on to get the most of the fiber content than without it.
