Uses

How it Works

Sorbitol works by drawing water into the intestine through osmosis, which softens the stool and makes it easier to pass.

Side Effects

Common side effects of sorbitol include nausea, diarrhea, and stomach cramps.

Expert Advice

Healthy tips to prevent constipation include:

Eat more fiber in your diet; the recommended daily intake is 20-35g.
Drink 8-10 glasses of water per day.
Exercise regularly, at least 3 times per week.
