Something no one wants to talk about

Constipation. But if it happens, I have a recipe that is a real block buster! it's called POWER PUDDING for a reason!

2 cups pitted prunes
1 cup applesauce
1 cup Bran Cereal
enough prune juice to make pudding consistency

Blend it in a blender and eat 1 cup in the morning and 1 in the evening for a couple of days, or until it works. It's food so you can't over dose, but I don't recommend you go out the first day or so you start eating it. ;-)

    Thanks for this recipe~ this
    Thanks for this recipe~ this is indeed something we talk about! I wish I had known about this when I was in treatment~I remember calling my Dr at 3AM desperate for relief. He suggested good old Milk Of Magnesia, which did indeed work, but I seriously would have liked the power-pudding better! I am sure others will be grateful that you posted it too!

    Hugs,
