Here are five Indian drinks that can help with constipation:

Papaya Seed Infusion

Crush papaya seeds and steep them in hot water for about 10 minutes. Strain the mixture and drink it warm. Papaya seeds contain enzymes that aid digestion and help relieve constipation.

Methi (Fenugreek) Water

Soak a tablespoon of fenugreek seeds in a glass of water overnight. In the morning, strain the water and drink it on an empty stomach. Fenugreek seeds are high in fibre, which can help regulate bowel movements.

Sattu Drink

Sattu is a flour made from roasted gram or barley. Mix a couple of tablespoons of sattu flour with water, add a pinch of salt, and drink it. Sattu is rich in fibre and can help relieve constipation.

Bael (Wood Apple) Juice

Extract juice from ripe bael fruit and drink it on an empty stomach in the morning. Bael fruit contains fibre and natural laxatives that can help with constipation.

Neem Leaf Decoction

Boil neem leaves in water until the water reduces to half its quantity. Strain the decoction and drink it warm. Neem leaves have antibacterial and antifungal properties that can help improve digestion and relieve constipation.
