4. Drink Caffeinated Coffee

The caffeine naturally found in coffee works as a stimulant for the involuntary muscles that line the gut, causing it to move and push out its contents easier. In addition to this, coffee also contains tiny amounts of soluble fibers which have been known to be good for the digestive bacteria that help in breaking down food more effectively.

However, despite it being effective in relieving constipation, drinking too much caffeine may have unwanted effects on other organ systems, which is why it is important to drink it in moderation.
