Kiwi to the Rescue!! (constipation helper)

Had to share because I couldn't believe the results.  Had DH pick up a pack of kiwi fruit from Costco last night cause I was craving fresh fruit, and ate 4 of the delicious lil guys.  This morning, I had the biggest, best BM I've had in weeks! 

Thought I just ate too much of them, but it turns out the kiwi is PACKED with fiber and actually acts as a mild laxative!  Awesome!!  I feel sooooo much better, pants fit more too lol, and kiwi tastes much better than other ways of getting fiber.

  • Looks like I'm adding kiwi to my list of fruits to pick up today.
  • Yay! I've been getting kiwi for DS and sneaking some of it! Good to know it has a purpose other than being something I can stomach!

  • Plums also help with BM as well since they are hydrated prunes.

  • I didn't open this post all day because I assumed it was about the bird or NZers. Haha. Then I clued in and remembered from my first pg that kiwis are good for constipation and that's what this must be about! Thanks for the reminder, I might get some because I don't remember the last time I had a good poop.
