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.
There's no concern that water will dilute the digestive juices or interfere with digestion. In fact, drinking water during or after a meal actually aids digestion. Water and other liquids help break down food so that your body can absorb the nutrients. Water also softens stool, which helps prevent constipation.
