what would you advise if taking in capsule rather than powder

In case of Chronic constipation one single medicine will not be of much use as in it won’t fix the issue. Main dosha involved here is Vata dosha, And Apana vata is affected. You need to work on diet correction and have do physical activities such as ✅yogasana (mainly pavanamuktasan, vajrasan)/walking which will help improve the bowel movements. ✅Have 1 glass of warm water - first thing in the morning ✅Soak Raisins 8-10 at night and have it in the morning ✅Hydrate well , have food rich in fibre - which will help improve the bulk of stool. Also include ghee - 1tsf daily in your meals. Have all vegetables - green leafy, raddish, broccoli etc… fruits like kiwi, bananas, papaya etc Always have warm, freshly prepared food. Avoid oil fried, spicy foods. Triphala works as a laxative, but long use is not advisable.
