Reddit mentions of Spring Valley Cascara Sagrada 450 Mg

I'm sure people have given great advice here, but, as someone with continual constipation issues, I have two recommendations: eat more fat, and find a gentler laxative.

Fat moves things along obviously.

On days when I didn't poop that day, I take cascara sagrada. Now, my mom is a health nut, and likes herbal supplements and all that. I mostly don't, but this one, man. I call it Magic Fiber. It makes me go the next day, without the awful cramping that accompanies Senna Leaf (which is what most laxatives are made from). You can also try Smooth Move Tea, which is made from senna leaf. But you can decide how strong to make it, and how much of it to drink. It can also be very gentle, though if you make it too strong or drink too much, you'll get the cramping like with the laxative pills.

Edit: Also, because I have such a problem with constipation (I actually had a hemorrhoidectomy this Spring because I've had a problem since I was a kid, and I finally couldn't take the painful hemorrhoid I'd had since I was 15), I also take a stool softener in the morning and evening. Plus a shit-ton of fiber. This is partly because of the constipation problem, and partly because I've recently started Keto. So. Yeah. Hope this all helps!
