Members with MS shared many ideas for managing constant constipation, a struggle that many in the community know all too well. Several members found relief through natural remedies like daily prunes soaked in water, magnesium supplements at bedtime, chia seeds, green smoothies, and eating more fruits and vegetables, while others relied on products like Miralax, Senna Plus, Linzess, or Metamucil taken multiple times daily. A recurring theme was that what works for one person may not work for another, so finding the right fit takes patience and some trial and error.

I battled with constipation until I started taking this magnesium supplement that is full of other healthy ingredients that keep me regular! No more constipation. They were purchased on Amazon.
