About Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder

Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder is used to treat constipation and indigestion. Constipation is a condition that occurs when a person has fewer bowel movements and has difficulty in passing the stools (faeces). Indigestion is the inability to digest the food that is associated with pain and discomfort in the stomach.

Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder contains Ispaghula husk, a dietary fibre. It is the seed coat obtained from the plant Plantago ovata Forssk. When mixed with water, Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder produces a gel-like substance. This gel easily passes through the digestive system and increases the water content in the stools. Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder further increases bowel movements and lubricates the intestine for easy passage of stools.

Please take Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder in the dose and duration advised by your doctor based on your medical condition. Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder is generally safe to use. However, some may experience side effects like wind and bloating due to the sudden increase in fibre intake. Exposure to Ispaghula husks on the skin or their inhalation may cause skin rash and runny or itchy nose. Although not everyone experiences these side effects, if they occur, please seek medical attention.

Let your doctor know if you have any stomach or intestinal blockage, appendicitis, swallowing problems, rectal bleeding, diabetes, phenylketonuria (increased levels of an amino acid called phenylalanine), and reduced bowel movements before starting Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder. Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder is to be taken with enough liquid since it may lead to difficulty swallowing, chest pain, and vomiting. Intake of probiotics, prebiotics, and plenty of fluids is recommended if you are suffering from indigestion. Pregnant and breastfeeding women can use Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder with proper consultation and caution. Naturolax-A Tasty Orange Flavour Powder is not recommended for children below six years of age.

  • Please take foods rich in probiotics such as yoghurt/curd, kefir, sauerkraut, tempeh, kimchi, miso, kombucha, buttermilk, natto, and cheese.
  • Eat fibre-rich foods like whole grains, beans, lentils, berries, broccoli, peas, and bananas to aid digestion.

  • Avoid overeating, eating too fast, eating high-fat foods, or eating during stressful situations that can burden your stomach.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Indigestion: Indigestion is the inability to digest the food associated with pain and discomfort in the stomach.

Constipation occurs when a person has lesser bowel movements (fewer than three bowel movements in a week) and has difficulty passing the stools (faeces). When the normal muscle contractions in the large intestine slow down, it leads to the incomplete elimination of the bowel from the body. Symptoms include bloating, abdominal pain, and feeling as if the bowel movement is incomplete. Constipation can occur due to various reasons like dehydration, not including enough fibre in the diet, side effects of medicines, and lack of physical activity.
