A smoothie made with 1 cup of blackberries followed by a cup of black coffee should do the trick. I use protein powder and water in my smoothies, but you could use some ginger tea or fruit juice as the liquid in it to increase the laxative effect. btw- I use frozen blackberries.

If we are speaking about an ADULT male or female....black coffee should do the trick.

Actually, tequila does it for me.

Water, water, water. Cup of coffee in the morning, chased with (immediately followed by) a bottle of water. (I do this on my way to work, and I'm usually on the pot about an hour after getting in.)

Vigorous walking with water. When I get on the treadmill and walk (not even speed-walking) for about 8-10 minutes, I have to stop and get to the bathroom.

hahahaha. Beans have the opposite effect on me.
Go buy some magnesium tablets, take 2- 500mg tabs, works like a charm.

Probiotics. But not in the yogurt. Buy the actual pills and take 1. In the future, take one in advance of the partying.

Hello,
Fruit of any kind, especially raw will help. Grains too. (well, except bananas) LOL! They work the opposite. Also, grains. I like to eat a bowl of shredded wheat and have some raisins. Also, magnesium does very well with this issue. I have to take it daily (as a suppliment) because I take several medications each day that can tend to bind you up. It works very well, without any quick results or "emergency" trips to the restroom. LOL! I know for my youngest daughter who suffers from major constipation issues, juice works well for her. Orange juice or Juicy juice has a flavor that works well. I believe that it is a citrus blend. Good luck! I hope everything works out well for you. :)
