In human anatomy , the intestine (or bowel ) is the segment of the alimentary canal extending from the pyloric sphincter of the stomach to the anus and, in humans and other mammals, consists of two segments, the small intestine and the large intestine . In humans, the small intestine is further subdivided into the duodenum , jejunum and ileum while the large intestine is subdivided into the cecum and colon .

Fiber rich foods are ideal for constipation , its better than taking laxative. eat banana, beans, carrot, and more spinach . i also use cremadiet powder fo constipation. it has no taste, it bland, its very difficult to have it, do yu know any other suppliment that will be better than cremadiet.
