Dried Fruit
Although dried fruit has a higher number of calories than the same amount of natural fruit, it’s an excellent source of fiber. Despite their low water content, if eaten in moderation, dried fruits can help prevent constipation and improve digestion.
Dried fruits, such as raisins, dates, figs, apricots, and prunes are available in all grocery stores year-round. I’m sure you’ve heard that Prunes are a popular remedy, but did you know that it’s because that they contain a high amount of sorbitol, a carbohydrate that is similar in structure as sugar, but also helps you go.
