Hi Dextersam10

I can't see how eating two kiwi fruits a day would do you any harm but depending on the severity of your constipation you might need something stronger like a stool softener. Contact your Gp and they will probably prescribe something like lactulose syrup or laxido powder sachet you mix with water. Plenty of water, fresh fruit, veg and roughage can help but sometimes we may need a little extra help. Don't leave it too long.

Best Wishes

Hi Dextersam....just be aware the Kiwi Fruit has the highest amount of Vitamin K in it.

If you are on a Blood Thinner, adjustments made need to be made to avoid the blood

getting too thin. :) xx
