Apple juice is an excellent home remedy to improve the functioning of the intestine, as the apple contains a soluble fiber called pectin which, when in contact with food water, forms a viscous gel capable of increasing the volume of stool and promoting intestinal functioning.
In addition, by facilitating the movement of intestinal transit, the apple is able to eliminate toxins and insoluble fibers present in the intestine, being a great complement to treat diverticulitis, diarrhea and constipation, for example.
Ingredients
- 1 apple, 1 cup of pitted cherries, 1 liter of water
Method of preparation
Cut the apples in half, remove the seeds and place in a blender together with the cherries and water. Beat well until a homogeneous mixture is obtained and drink twice a day.
To complement this home remedy, you should drink at least 1 liter of water a day, have an abdominal massage, eat foods rich in fiber, such as strawberries, pears or seed bread and exercise regularly because these cares also help to loosen the intestine.
