Constipation
I am 56 years old male.I had a heart bypass surgery 1.5 years back and since then am suffering from frequent constipation, which results in fissure issues.
After surgery I have developed hypothyroidism and taking Thyronorm 25 mcg.
Also am taking Unistar 20/75 Capsule · Salt Composition Rosuvastatin (20mg) + Aspirin (75mg)
I have tried everything but my constipation keeps comming back and I have use stool softener frequently, and am afraid that I will get used to them eventually.
A friend suggested to take A2 COW GHEE - 1 teaspoon with warm water in the morning.
Is it safe to consume it for heart patients ?

Good evening. Constipation means that your diet is less in roughage and water. Have stool softeners as it prevent load over heart especially if you use pressure while passing stools. You need to have diet rich in fibre . Drink more water. Need me you can come to noida for physical consultation.
