Laxatives and constipation: 'regular' may not be as often as you think

Article Abstract:

Normal or regular bowel movements varies from three daily to three weekly. Constipation is generally defined as difficulty passing a stool or passing hard stools less than three times weekly. Constipation may be caused by lack of fluids, reduced physical activity, improper diet, medication, and certain medical conditions. Occasional constipation may be relieved by adding high-fiber foods and natural vegetable fiber supplements to the diet. Delayed bowel movements should also be avoided.
