Bananas

Bananas are high in fiber, which may aid with constipation relief. According to one study, increasing fiber intake resulted in higher stool frequency and softer stool quality for 77% of persons with constipation. A medium banana has 3 grams of fiber, making it an excellent source of this vitamin. Men should consume 38 grams of fiber per day, while women should consume 25 grams.

Your banana's freshness is critical. Unripe bananas have more amylase-resistant starch, which might cause constipation. The amount of resistant starch in bananas decreases as the fruit ripens.
