The human body is so remarkable that daily wonders are easily taken for granted…until problems occur. One common problem is irregularity or constipation. Occasional irregularity and constipation may be treated safely, gently and effectively through the use of a stool softener.
Some possible symptoms of constipation may include:
• Infrequent bowel movements
• Irregular bowel movements
• Incomplete bowel movements
• Pain or straining during bowel movements
• Hard, dry stools
• Excessive gas or bloating
Some common cause of constipation include:
• Low fibre diet and dehydration
• Waiting too long or ignoring urge to have a bowel movement
• Lack of physical activity
• Eating and drinking too many dairy products
• Changes in life or routine caused by pregnancy, aging, travel
• General illnesses and various medications may also be associated with constipation.

My hubby struggles with IBS and Diverticulitis - usually attacks are stress induced. When my hubby gets 'stuck', he takes 3 of these softgels. They are very gentle in the way they work and it takes approximately a day for the pills to be effective. But they work very reliably and the end result feels very natural. No more horrid huge 'parcels' to pass - just a nice soft 'motion' that arrives quite naturally the following day. So glad that Biovea ships internationally (and efficiently too!).
