Hello, this is Beatrice.  Today, we’re going to look into teas that are great for relieving constipation. In Oriental medicine, the cause of constipation isn't seen simply as a "lack of fiber."

Core Weapon: 'Inulin' and Rich Dietary Fiber Burdock root is incredibly rich in inulin , a type of water-soluble dietary...
