Now, one expert advises that a hot drink could solve the problem. This is because hot beverages such as coffee, tea - or even a cup of hot water - stimulate the bowel, easing constipation. Dr Felice Schnoll-Sussman, a gastroenterologist at the Weill Medical College of Cornell University, US, said hot drinks widen blood vessels, aiding digestion.
But the truth is, along with fiber, proper hydration is key for preventing constipation. Drinking plenty of water makes stool softer and helps it slide through your internal plumbing. Teens should keep a bottle of water with them throughout the day.
