Metamucil is a laxative. It's one of the natural laxatives consisting of fiber. I'd go for the orange flavor. The stuff is pretty gritty, but it works well.

Metamucil at night, couple of cups of coffee in the morning. About half an hour later, you can read the entire sunday paper while making your deposit to the porcelin bank.
