What Foods Help Elimination?

Sometimes I can eat some junk food and eliminate but I still feel like there's a lot of stuff still in the inside but today I had a salad and it really felt a very strong elimination - I thought lettuce was basically water? Does anybody know what is in lettuce that may cause an elimination feeling that feels satisfying?

Coconut oil

In lettuce? ??

Fiber...the darker the lettuce the more it has. ( kale , greenleaf , etc..)

Iceberg lettuce has a larger water content and a lower fiber content than other vegetables

but water actually helps you poo too.

Hydration is key to regularity.

also why not just say poo?

idk why but elimination grosses me out more.lol

oatmeal in the morning + popcorn in the afternoon = toilet in the evening

FIBER! You can only find fiber in fruits and veggies hence why vegan diets are so healthy for you. ?

Coffee counts, too!

Avacados, prunes, spices, berries...

Black cherry juice will do the trick every single time

Lettuce is more for you gut bacteria then for you. if your gut bacteria are low it can make it hard to eat lettuce. i learned this about myself this year.

Enzymes.
