The juice that is good for constipation is prune juice as well as apple juice and pear juice.

Prunes and prune juice are good sources of fiber and sorbitol which together aid digestion and help relieve constipation.

An 8-ounce serving of prune juice contains about 3 to 4 grams of dietary fiber, which provides a significant portion of the daily value.

The fruit that is best for constipation are prunes as they are high in fiber and natural sugar alcohol called sorbitol, which helps get your bowels moving.

Prunes and prune juice are common natural remedies for relieving and treating constipation as well as preventing constipation.

Other best fruits for constipation are berries, figs, Kiwis, apples with the skin and pears, oranges, plums, peaches and apricots.

Figs can help with poop frequency and alleviate abdominal discomfort.

Pears also contain fiber, sorbitol and fructose which can all help with promoting bowel movements.

Also drinking plenty of water and eating a high fiber diet are also key to preventing constipation and relieving constipation.

Applesauce can also help with constipation as applesauce contains soluble fiber and that soluble fiber in Applesauce adds bulk to your poop, softens your poop and also promotes regular bowel movements.

Applesauce is also a great source of potassium, which can also help to stimulate your muscles that are in your digestive tract.

You can eat applesauce plain, add it in with oatmeal, yogurt or even mix applesauce with some prune juice or use the applesauce as a base for smoothies.

Eating apples can also help with constipation, but applesauce is best for constipation.

Bananas also help with constipation as bananas contain soluble fiber that absorbs water and helps to bulk up your poop.

Bananas also contain resistant starch that also acts as a prebiotic and stimulates growth of beneficial bacteria in your gut, which also helps with digestion.

The potassium in bananas also can help to promote bowel movements.

Eating bananas regularly can also help to prevent constipation and improve your health.

Ripe bananas are best for constipation as they have more soluble fiber than less ripe bananas.

You can also combine the bananas with other high fiber foods like vegetables, other fruits and whole grains and drink plenty of fluids, especially water as fiber needs water to work properly in the body.

The causes of long poops include constipation, dehydration, slow bowel movements and even insufficient fiber intake.

Eating foods like dairy, gluten or processed foods in excess can result in long poops.

Eating large amounts of foods that are rich in fiber like legumes and vegetables can also result in long poops.

And certain medications like iron supplements, antihistamines and opioids can also cause long poops and constipation.
