An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but can an orange a day keep the constipation at bay? A woman on Instagram claimed in a viral video that eating an entire orange — peel included — can cure constipation in just minutes.

The video, originally posted in Dec. 2022, has just recently gone viral after she reposted it in Dec. 2023, garnering a collective 23.6 million views.

Instagrammer @lilsipper shared her step-by-step “cure” for constipation, which involves washing the outside of the orange, slicing it into wedges, coating each slice with cinnamon and cayenne pepper “generously” and eating the entire thing including the peel. “Wait 5-10 minutes and the rest is history!” she wrote.

Kimchi and apple cider will create forces that rival the Saturn V rocket.

“Psyllium husk powder in vegan gelcaps.”

I used them for several years from Amazon, and they were magical. (Gotta take them with at least 8 oz of water!!) Then one day for no particular reason, they just stopped working. Weird.

Prunes.

Hilarious SNL segment.

(Of course, I have to give the obligatory comment: “Back when SNL was funny.”)

“Sauerkraut”

Definitely. I love Reuben sandwiches but don’t dare order one in a restaurant.

Mannitol. Hmm. Sounds familiar...something from my wild, irresponsible days of youth.

Maybe Amazon changed suppliers on us. When it’s “store brand” it doesn’t necessarily come from the same supplier all the time... and I wonder who does the quality control for that product on Amazon’s team LOL.

“26,726 people found this helpful”...lol

Those things did bring about a new genre of short form literature — the Amazon Hirobi Sugar-Free Gummi Bear Review.
