Common Sense About Constipation A doctor would tell you that the best thing to do with any ailment I is to get at its cause. If you’re constipated, don't fiddle with makeshift remedies. Find out what’s giving you the trouble! Chances are you won t have to look very far if you eat just the things most people do. Most likely ‘ you don't get enough “bulk”! And “bulk” doesn’t mean just a lot of food. It means a kind ot food that isn’t consumed in the body, but leaves a soft “bulky” mass in the intestines and helps a bowel movement. If this is what you lack, your ticket is crisp crunchy Kellogg's i AU-Bran for breakfast. It contains the "bulk” you need plus | the intestinal tonic, vitamin Biand it's not a drug, not amedlcine!
