Re: Drinking warm water for constipation, general bowle movements??? caffeine will do that but I have read in an ostomy guide pamphlet about the bowel stimulation that a cup of warm water may have. Frankly a cup of tea is more appealing and is still warm water. I would warm up a glass of cold water and not drink the warm water supply in the house. The above poster is correct in that warm water contains more dissolved minerals than cold water including lead from the solder used to connect copper pipes.
Drink plenty of fluids to aid digestion. It's important to keep drinking, especially water. It encourages the passage of waste through your digestive system and helps soften stools. Fibre acts like a sponge, absorbing water. Without fluid, the fibre can't do its job and you'll get constipation. A good way to make sure you're getting enough fluids is to drink a glass of water with every meal.
