Soluble and osmotic fiber diet for constipation
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This research looks at how a diet rich in soluble and osmotic fibers affects constipation in adults who have missed some follow-up appointments. It uses data from previous visits to see if the diet helps improve bowel movements.

This trial tests if two types of fiber—one from chicory and one from a plant husk—can help women with constipation move food through their intestines faster. It aims to find a gentle, non-drug option that might work better than what you eat now.
This trial tests a new drug called CMTS4520 for people with long-term constipation. It aims to see if the drug can help you have more bowel movements without needing laxatives or other help. The study lasts for several months and includes regular check-ups.
This trial tests if a fecal microbiota transplant combined with nutritional support can improve chronic constipation that hasn't gotten better with standard treatments. It's a small early study to see if the approach is safe and works.
This trial tests whether a diet low in certain hard-to-digest carbohydrates (called FODMAPs) can reduce bloating in people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or chronic constipation with bloating. Participants will receive either a low FODMAP diet or a control diet for a period to see which helps more.
This study tests if a common stool softener called lactulose can improve gut health and metabolism in people with type 2 diabetes and long-term constipation. It aims to see if changing gut bacteria can help both digestion and blood sugar control.
This study tests whether a low-FODMAP diet combined with PEG 3350 can reduce symptoms in adults with IBS-C (irritable bowel syndrome with constipation). It may help improve bowel habits and abdominal pain, and it checks which people can safely follow the diet and treatment plan.
