Prunes have alot of potassium and Vitimin A in them, which helps stimulate the process of softening what's in your intestines, dissolving any blockages, and actually activate the peristaltic action that moves any waste through your bowel. Basically, they're a natural laxative.
Whilst the subject has been brought up can i ask a question?!! Is it harmful to eat prunes everyday? I have just discovered them, and like them so much! I do have problems going to the toilet, they have helped but i'm just wondering if i am overdoing them..??x Can you help?!
Question Author
i do nt know if they do. but to be on the safe side just have a small tin every second day. or justask you'er DR next time you see them
I eat prunes to enable me to go to the toilet regularly, they are an excellent fibre provider, which softens things up........if you get my meaning?!?!?
pinkspangle I have a 400g tin and eat that over 3 days, you can eat them every day no problem, I have done so for years.
Also prunes are high in antioxidants
