Why SennaPrompt?

One of my favorite subjects is constipation. You are constipated and I have to adjust my life to suit you. I sit in our hotel room and wait, no trip around town to see the sites this morning. Or, "pull over at the next gas station, I am feeling lucky today."
SennaPrompt capsules contain a blend of psyllium fiber and senna herb extracts. SennaPrompt’s all natural ingredients promote the timely relief for constipation. The senna herb extract gets the muscles on the right path and the psyllium provides a natural stool softener. The result should be a bowel movement in 6 to 12 hours. Many users find that it works overnight. The label gives you a range of how many capsules to take, 1 to 5 capsules once or twice a day. It’s a pretty wide range, so use your judgment, most people will know whether they need more or fewer capsules, but some experimentation may be necessary.
The best long-term product if you have an ongoing problem with constipation is Konsyl Original, the fiber supplement. SennaPrompt is an occasional use product and a transition onto the high dose Konsyl Original fiber supplement is recommended. Fiber, recommended by doctors, takes from 12 hours to several days to work, hence the need for a faster acting product in the interim.
A SennaPrompt capsule has 500 mg of psyllium fiber, a bulk-forming laxative, and 9 mg of sennosides, a stimulant laxative. So, you can calculate how much fiber and how much stimulate laxative you are taking. SennaPrompt should be taken with plenty of liquid, a full glass.
Stories of constant long-term use of aggressive abound and the indication is that they become habit forming to the point where nothing functions without a dose. SennaPrompt may help the transition to a fiber supplement.
So, why SennaPrompt? This product is not as aggressive as other laxatives. It is natural and the fiber element is something you want to take everyday anyway, you have a solution that gets you on the road to a high fiber diet, what you wanted, or even needed, in the first place.
So, SennaPrompt can be considered a little boost, when you need it, take it occasionally, not constantly, combine it with a high fiber diet and you know what you need for that.
