Flaxseed oil acts as a lubricant in the gastrointestinal tract and even though it is not regarded as a primary therapeutic modality for constipation, its lubricating properties may help facilitate bowel movements. So, taking one tablespoonful of flaxseed oil daily may help to alleviate constipation and also improve overall health.
