    Health tip that has been a life saver for me.

    As we age our elimination sys. Slows down and we need a little help. For the last two years i have been looking for a cure. I have tried huge amounts of yogurt,epsomsalts,yuk!!!! Herbs,pinapple and on and on. But only one has worked, and worked well.

    Take a handful of raisins ( i buy them at yanyan store 1k for 249 or so)and soak them in a couple inches of water overnight and then drink them first thing the next morning. Sever cases might do it again in the evening.

    Hope this helps the traffic jam.

    I find Tanduay and calamansi juice works pretty well.

    I guess with most desirable side effects for most, but with longtime use you may get health hazards...

    Coffee and chocolate goes right through me. Take a little too much vitamin C and your body will purge it.

    An old boss of mine swears by changing the colour of your beer, will do the trick (Drink Red Horse, Change to SMB) the Beer colour here is the same whatever you drink, so I am not sure it would work!:rolleyes: Hey HO what ever, Do we have access to prunes, this always worked when I was a Kid.:eek:

    Beer always seemed to keep me pretty regular, where I am currently working beer is not easy to come by so I can notice a difference in my "schedule".

    Can you define "regular"? For me it is entirely dependant on what country I am in. Whatever seems to be what tends to be that standard on the daily basis is what I determine regular for that specific place. The Philippines and the US are on almost opposite sides of the spectrum. My personal belief if that processed foods makes thing a bit "tougher" and the more natural foods I eat here tend to soften things up. I think the Philippines is certainly more natural, although growing up in the US doesn't mean it feels normal or regular.

    Just curious, do you eat or drink a lot of prepackaged foods and drinks? Not much that I put in my body here comes pre-made. Tanduay (along with the coke), instant coffee and the occasional package used to make the fried chicken are the only thing s I'm aware of I eat with any preservatives in them.
