Bran Muffins With Raisins
Hey Gnomies,
What’s something that everyone has to deal with at some point in their lives but no one wants to talk about? Occasional constipation!
Let’s get real. Occasional constipation is no fun. But there are things you can do to help make yourself more comfortable and get relief.
Adding fiber to your diet with foods like today’s recipe for bran muffins, drinking plenty of water and getting daily exercise can all help to keep you regular.
If you need a little extra help getting relief from occasional constipation you may want to try MiraLAX®
On a recent trip to Walmart I picked up MiraLAX Mix-In Pax® and MiraLAX unflavored powder. You can easily mix this into water or your favorite drink.
MiraLAX works with your body’s natural process to provide effective relief from occasional constipation. Because it works with the body, MiraLAX provides a gentle experience, and doesn't cause harsh side effects.
MiraLAX is different from stimulant laxatives. Stimulant laxative pills make your body go by forcefully stimulating the nerves in your colon. MiraLAX works with the water in your body to hydrate, soften, and ease, unblocking your system naturally. Use as directed.
