Beyond fibre, fluid and fitness: managing constipation with 'biotics'

One in four Australians (that's more than six million people!) are affected by constipation. With many different causes and types of constipation now identified, managing this uncomfortable condition is more complex than we once thought. No longer is the remedy just increasing fibre and fluid intake and doing more exercise, science is now discovering how pre- and pro-biotics can play a role in getting bowels moving. In this podcast, dietitian Sandra Mikhail explains how she 'makes poo talk sound chic', discusses the role of specific pre- and pro-biotics in relieving constipation and explains the importance of diversity of fibres in the diet.
