- Caffeine is also a natural stimulant to the digestive system, so indulging a cup of joe will help get you up and running in more ways than one .
- Fiber is material that cannot be digested , and it acts like a sponge. It draws water from its surroundings making it swell which softens stool and adds bulk to it, which in turn helps it pass.

Some good fibers are :-
- Beans
- Apricots
- Whole grain bread
- Berries
- Broccoli
- Plums
- Pears
