Pine Apples

I recommend drinking a morning smoothie if you have constipation or if you have skin problems like acne. Drinking a high fiber smoothie relieves and prevents constipation. It will also provide the nutrients that are necessary for having or keeping a nice clean and smooth skin.

So, here are the six smoothie recipes you can blend.

* Apple Smoothie
* Apple-Barley Smoothie
* Apricot Smoothie
* Peach-Rice Dream Smoothie
* Pineapple Smoothie
* Strawberry Smoothie

Apple Smoothie

Mix in the blender the following.

1-2 small apples cut into wedges
1 banana
1 cup 50:50 rice dream: almond milk
¼ cup or less of raisins soaked overnight
1-teaspoon honey
1-2 cubes of ice
1-teaspoon lecithin granules
2 tablespoons flax seed oil

Start by mixing the banana and the liquids. Then add slices of apples to get the consistency you like. In all of your smoothies add flax seed oil for nice smooth skin. I also add a tablespoon of flax seed straight into the blender and the blender will chop them up.
Apple-Barley Smoothie

Mix in the blender the following.

1 cup of sliced apples with peel
1/2 cup of cooked barley
1/4 cup of soaked raisins
1/4 teaspoon of vanilla flavoring
1-1 ½ cup of 50:50 rice dream: almond milk
1-teaspoon lecithin granules
2 Tablespoons flax seed oil

Make sure you use the lecithin granules in these smoothies since lecithin helps to breakdown the flax oil into tiny droplets and makes it more digestible.

Apricot Smoothie

One cup of fresh apricots or dried apricots that were soaked overnight
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
Two oz. of prune juice
One teaspoon or more of oat ban
One teaspoon of mineral whey
One tablespoon of flax seed oil
One tablespoon of lecithin granules

Add a slight amount of distilled water or ice cubes to make the consistency to your liking. This smoothie is good for constipation and acne.

Peach-Rice Dream Smoothie

Mix in the blender:

2 fresh peaches with peel
1-cup rice dream
1/2 banana
1-teaspoon sesame seeds
1-teaspoon sunflower seed
1-tablespoon lecithin granules
2 tablespoons flax seed oil

In place of rice dream you can use almond milk. I now only use almond milk to make my smoothies. Place all of the seeds straight into the blender. This smoothie has plenty of fiber. You may want to increase the amount of sesame and sunflower seeds.

Pineapple Smoothie

Mix the following in a blender.

1-2 cups of fresh pineapples
1/2 cups apple slices
1/4-cup fresh apple juice
1/2-cup almond milk (more or less as needed)
1 banana
1-tablespoon lecithin
2-tablespoons flax seeds
2 teaspoons bran (wheat, oat or rice)

You can add more lecithin if you like. Lecithin does not have a taste. This smoothie is jam packed with fiber.

Strawberry Smoothie

Mix in a blender the following ingredients.

1 banana
1-tablespoon of lecithin granules
1-teaspoon of any type of bran
1 cup or more 50:50 rice dream: almond milk
Now add strawberries one by one with the blender on until you get the consistency you like.
1-tablespoon flax seeds
1 or 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds
1-teaspoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon of flax seed oil

You can add liquid minerals or vitamins to these smoothies and give them an additional nutritional value.

If you are suffering from constipation, drink lots of fluid especially water. Try taking in more than eight glasses during the course of one day, preferably one glass every hour or whichever feels more adequate. You can also substitute water with vegetable and fruit juices if you get tired of drinking plain H20. Papaya purees mixed with a bit of lemon are excellent sources of fluid and fiber. Drinking a cup of cabbage juice or carrot juice will also help a lot in relieving an individual from constipation.

Another means to treat constipation would be to consume a regular diet that is filled with more fiber and lesser amounts of meat and starch. Red meat like pork, beef, and their processed derivatives as well as starchy fares like white flour bread and pastries all promote constipation because these are harder to break down during digestion. Instead adopt a diet that is rich in leafy greens, fiber rich fruits like papaya, oranges, and pineapples, and consume large amounts of fluids and water. Eating pears is also one good remedy for constipation.

There are many ways to treat constipation; each person should find his own remedy.

Other good constipation home remedies you can make yourself at the comfort of your home are:

1. Carrot juice and tomato juice are very good for constipation.

2. You can mix 1 teaspoon of olive oil with lemon juice and water. You should drink it in the morning before a meal.

3. A mixture of thyme and honey is very good for constipation. A teaspoon of thyme is enough.

4. Apple cider vinegar can be used to relieve constipation. 2 tablespoons of the vinegar will be enough. It's important to drink it on an empty stomach right before you eat your breakfast.

5. Drink plenty of water, at least 5 glasses of water a day.

6. Do not eat bananas, they cause constipation.

7. Drink potato juice, just grind it and drink up the liquid.

8. Guava is a very effective remedy for constipation. You should eat it with its seeds.

9. Squeeze one lime in a glass, add salt and water and boil it. Let it cool off a little and then drink it.

10. Take 2 tablespoons of flaxseed oil with warm water after a meal.

Finally, exercise is a very effective means to treat constipation. Try a few minutes walk after each meal to promote better digestion. A deskbound existence is not very promising when it comes to breaking down food properly and eliminating toxins regularly. Keeping a light exercise regimen such as walking, gardening, and light housework will engender better blood circulation and a healthier digestive system, thus preventing constipation.
