Matthew from Milwaukee Wisconsin would like to know does pineapple juice work as a constipation remedy? The answer is yes, pineapple juice can work as a light constipation remedy. Pineapple juice contains a lot of natural fruit based acids, which can stimulate the lower intestinal tract and provoke a bowel movement. The one thing to consider however, is that like orange juice, pineapple juice can dehydrate your body, and as well all know, dehydration is one of the leading causes of constipation. So the trick is to drink a glass of fresh squeezed pineapple juice, and then chase that down with a tall glass of water. If that doesn't do the trick, then double the amounts of both the pineapple juice and water. We hope that answers this question.
