Do any of you know of a good natural med to get from the health food store for constipation.

I am not on any meds for pain so that's not causing my problem. I am on Mitformin and Nexium for my stomach. The Mitformin helps most of the time but I go through spells where it doesn't. I end up with nausea from the constipation.

My Dr. wanted me to start back on Merilax but it didn't do a thing for me and my Gastro Dr. says it would most likely make me worse anyway. The same with Metamucial. I have tried it and sure enough it does make things worse.

I have Metabolic Syndrome and Motility related Dyspepsia so my stomach doesn't work right.

I want to go to a health food store and see what they have. Any thoughts on this?

Thanks,
Ada
