In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explains the truth about laxatives. There are two kinds of laxatives used to relieve constipation – oral and rectal. Some people think that laxatives can be used for weight loss to help you cleanse your system. They really aren’t meant for this kind of use or any kind of long term use. A better way is to eat more fiber and drink more water. But if you are going to use a laxative pick a fiber supplement that is gentler on your body. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
