Constipation
If you are eating whole grains, 4 servings of fresh raw fruit and 5 servings of fresh vegetables, including a salad everyday, plus enough plain water, especially a glass half an hour before a meal, constipation will not happen.
Check that bread label for whole grains, make sure you are not tricked into unbleached refined flour tinted brown to look like whole wheat.
If you think "oh ick, I hate vegetables and whole wheat" you just haven't been properly introduced to the right stuff. Whole grains tend to be tasty when fresh. Vegetables that have been canned or frozen is sludge. A leaf of iceberg lettuce with a wedge of vinyl orange tomato should not be called a salad.
What you find in supermarkets is picture perfect produce. It has been engineered for a long truck ride, and look perfect for as long as possible. It is usually expensive and tasteless.
Locate your local farmers market, you are in for treats galore. Independent grocers often have good stuff at reasonable prices.
Dried fruit without sweeteners or sulphur is okay. Fresh juice is great, pasteurized juice is just like refined sugar.
