Hi..... Adding fiber to your diet increases the weight of your stool and speeds its passage through your intestines. Slowly begin to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables each day. Choose whole-grain breads and cereals....
Eat at regular times. Don't skip meals, and try to eat about the same time each day to help regulate bowel function.....
