It is important to consume a variety of foods that soften stool. Junk foods, processed and refined foods, fatty foods, alcohol, dehydration and dairy products can cause constipation, a gastrointestinal condition the causes irregular bowel movements and /or hard, dry stools.
When frequent bowel movements continue for more than a couple of days, and there is no indication of parasitic or bacterial infection, certain foods can help firm bowel movements and put an end to the condition. Commonly doctors advocate the BRAT or BRATTY diet to help relieve diarrhea. BRATTY is an acronym for bananas, rice, applesauce, toast, tea and yogurt. These foods, especially when eaten together, can help to firm bowel movements.
