Your list of all the ways you have found to deal with constipation are great! This list is valuable as it points out the need to have a variety of remedies and not just rely on one product or one activity.

I would add abdominal massage to the list. It can help when your digestive tract is slow and sluggish. Methods for abdominal massage can be viewed on YouTube.

Have you tried that?

Yes - I find it helpful especially with bad bouts of bloating. I agree that multiple remedies and some consistency in approach are the key. I remember a speaker at a conference on this topic saying something I always try to follow: "Respect the urge" - go when you feel the urge and don't put it off if possible.
