For older busy people who live stressful and sedentary lives, sometimes one develops constipation. Sometimes lasting for years leading to hemorrhoids and other problems. It seems that consumption of OTC fiber is not recommended for long term use as it can either cause one’s nerves to forget either how to detect the need to defecate., or cause the relevant muscles to forget how to do it.

I think I had accidentally watched some YouTube videos about a miracle formula mixed with a full cup of water. I started drinking large cup full of water just before sleeping. This seems to wake me at wee hours of the day with urgency to use the bathroom. And everything that needs to go passes easily at that time.

So, if you have aforementioned problems, and you are desperate enough to forsake an uninterrupted night of sleep for some regularity, give this trick a try. It might do you some good.
