7. Prunes
Prunes are sometimes given a bad rap, but they really should not be since they are very nutritious for you. If you have not tried them before, then you will soon find that prunes are very tasty, too. Prunes can be eaten alone, or you can mix them with other foods to sweeten things up. They can be very beneficial for your complex digestive system. Prunes have sorbitol in them, and sorbitol can work wonders toward helping you prevent or remedy constipation. Sorbitol forces water into your colon, which helps produce more bowel movements and also helps soften your stool.
