Containing the active ingredient <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">polyethylene glycol 3350<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (PEG 3350), <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MiraLax<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is FDA approved to treat occasional constipation in adults. It has several off-label uses, too, including treating chronic constipation, constipation related to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), bowel preparation for colonoscopy procedures, and treating constipation in children (which the American Academy of Pediatrics considers safe).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For most people, MiraLax is an effective way to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">relieve constipation<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> without any side effects or health risks. You can take it with many different foods and drinks as part of a normal diet, but if you\u2019re hoping to poop as quickly as possible, there are some foods you should avoid.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Saturated fat, ultra-processed foods, alcohol, and unripe bananas, for example, have been shown in studies to increase the risk of constipation. Eating these foods while taking MiraLax could make it harder for the medication to treat your symptoms. Here\u2019s what to know about what you should and shouldn\u2019t eat on MiraLax.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-miralax-works\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How MiraLax works<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MiraLax is an osmotic laxative, says <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/nutritionresolution.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alyssa Simpson<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, RDN, CGN, CLT<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a digestive health dietitian in Phoenix, Arizona. This means it works by increasing the amount of water in your intestines to make your stool softer and easier to pass. It\u2019s considered a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">gentle, predictable laxative<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Unlike stimulant laxatives such as <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dulcolax (bisacodyl)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, \u201cit doesn\u2019t rely on stimulating your gut muscles, so it tends to cause fewer side effects, giving your gut a little nudge, [not] a harsh push,\u201d Simpson says.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most people who take MiraLax will have a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.miralax.com\/faq\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bowel movement in one to three days<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, according to the manufacturer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"6-foods-to-avoid-with-miralax\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6 foods to avoid with MiraLax<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MiraLax isn\u2019t directly affected by anything you eat. Simpson says it doesn\u2019t need to be absorbed in your intestines to work, so it doesn\u2019t interact with foods or drinks. However, eating <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">foods that cause constipation<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can make it harder for MiraLax to do its job. It\u2019s like trying to unclog a toilet while flushing down reams of toilet paper.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To help MiraLax work effectively in your intestines, it\u2019s best to avoid the following constipation-causing foods while taking it.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"1-foods-high-in-saturated-fat\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Foods high in saturated fat<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Foods with a high saturated fat content are known for slowing down your digestive system and causing constipation. Common <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/ency\/patientinstructions\/000838.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dietary sources of saturated fat<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Red meat<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fried foods<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Butter<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coconut and palm oil<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whole-fat dairy products\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1111\/nmo.12630\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> found that a diet high in saturated fat was associated with participants having fewer than three stools per week. In this study, the constipation risk was even higher for people older than 65 with diabetes and people with uncontrolled diabetes. Other types of fat are not as closely related to constipation as saturated fat. Another <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC8746799\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, for example, points out that polyunsaturated fats like omega-3s help your intestines maintain a healthy balance of bacteria, reducing the risk of constipation.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"2-dairy\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Dairy<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full-fat dairy contains saturated fat, a common trigger for constipation. Dairy doesn\u2019t increase constipation in everyone, per a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full\/10.1002\/fsn3.3914\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">recent study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but some people find that eating large amounts of dairy products like milk, cheese, and yogurt makes it harder for them to have regular bowel movements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On top of that, some people may also be lactose intolerant, or unable to fully break down the sugar in milk (lactose), without realizing it. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC9105309\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> suggests that about 30% of people with lactose intolerance have constipation instead of the more common symptoms of abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, and gas.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"3-ultra-processed-foods\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Ultra-processed foods<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A food is considered processed when it\u2019s somehow changed or transformed from its natural state. Much of the food we eat is processed in some way. Vegetables are cleaned or frozen; oats are milled; meat is ground into patties. But when food is significantly changed from its natural state, it\u2019s called <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.heart.org\/en\/healthy-living\/healthy-eating\/eat-smart\/nutrition-basics\/processed-foods\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ultra-processed<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. For example, pepperoni, instant noodles, soda, potato chips, cookies, and ice cream are all examples of ultra-processed foods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These foods often contain high levels of ingredients like sodium, sugar, and unhealthy fats, all of which can contribute to constipation, especially if you eat them in large quantities. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bmcpublichealth.biomedcentral.com\/articles\/10.1186\/s12889-022-14360-w\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some research<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> found that a high sodium intake increased the risk of constipation in participants using two definitions of constipation: frequency and consistency. In other words, a high-sodium diet may make your stool harder to pass and cause you to have fewer stools. Foods with lots of added sugar\u2014like chocolates, cookies, ice cream, and candy\u2014can have the same effect.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"4-refined-carbohydrates\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Refined carbohydrates<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are two types of carbohydrates: complex or whole carbs, and simple or refined carbs. Both eventually turn to sugar and get used for your body\u2019s energy production, but <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.heart.org\/en\/healthy-living\/healthy-eating\/eat-smart\/nutrition-basics\/carbohydrates\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">whole carbs take longer to digest than refined carbs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, so they don\u2019t spike your blood sugar and are a healthier choice.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whole carbs are also less likely than refined carbs to cause constipation. A <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41430-020-0636-1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of Korean women with constipation found that a diet based around white rice (a refined carb) was less likely to improve symptoms of constipation compared to diets based around either wheat or brown rice (both whole carbs). Additionally, a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/39946401\/#:~:text=Conclusions%3A%20High%2Dquality%20carbohydrates%20lowered,stabilizing%20beyond%2040.65%20servings%2Fday\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">new study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> showed that high-quality, or complex, carbs lowered the risk of constipation by more than 30% while low-quality, or simple, carbs increased the risk by more than 80%.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"5-alcohol\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Alcohol<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The occasional beer or glass of wine probably won\u2019t make you constipated, but several studies have linked regular consumption of alcohol to decreased bowel movements. This is partly because <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC5537780\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">alcohol has a diuretic effect<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, causing you to urinate more and lose more fluids; fluid loss equals <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK513291\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dehydration, which causes firmer stools<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that are harder to pass.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In general, the more alcohol you consume, the higher your risk of constipation. A <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41598-025-91899-9\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">recent study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> looked at the effects of daily amounts of alcohol consumption on constipation and found that the more participants drank, the more likely they were to be constipated. In this study, heavy drinkers (defined as having more than 40 grams, or around 4 standard servings of alcohol per day) were statistically far more likely to have constipation than light drinkers (defined as having up to 10 grams, or 1 standard serving of alcohol per day).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll notice we included alcohol but not coffee, even though both are diuretics. That\u2019s because <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">coffee often has a laxative effect<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of its own, says Simpson, so it won\u2019t stop MiraLax from working. It could, however, get your bowels moving a little <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">too <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">well, she notes, so if your stomach is sensitive to caffeine, you may want to avoid pairing coffee with MiraLax if the combination causes diarrhea or cramping.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"6-unripe-bananas\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Unripe bananas<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ve ever had a bad stomach bug or bout of food poisoning that did a number on your stomach, your healthcare provider might have told you to spend a day or two on the \u201cBRAT\u201d diet, an acronym for bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. These foods are low in fiber, bland, and easy to digest, so they don\u2019t stress your stomach while it\u2019s trying to heal from an illness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As part of the \u201cBRAT\u201d diet, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC4291444\/#:~:text=Unripe%20bananas%20contain%20100%2D250,and%20toast\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">unripe bananas can help people experiencing severe diarrhea<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> because they are high in starch and have a binding effect on stool. But that\u2019s basically the opposite of what you\u2019re trying to achieve if you have constipation\u2014you don\u2019t want to bind, you want to soften. As bananas ripen, their starch content decreases and their soluble fiber content increases, not only making them less likely to cause constipation but actually a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucsfhealth.org\/education\/constipation\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">good choice for promoting regular bowel movements<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. If you want to eat a banana while taking MiraLax, make sure it\u2019s soft and ripe, with plenty of brown spots on the peel.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-should-you-eat-while-taking-miralax\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What should you eat while taking MiraLax?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MiraLax doesn\u2019t need to be absorbed into your intestines to relieve constipation\u2014it simply draws more water into your intestines, making your stool easier to pass. That means you don\u2019t need to eat any special foods to help it work better, but there are plenty of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/ency\/patientinstructions\/000120.htm#:~:text=Drink%208%20to%2010%20cups,%2C%20fig%20bars%2C%20and%20popcorn.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">foods you can eat to make your constipation go away<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> even more quickly while on MiraLax.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to drinking enough water, try eating:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Foods with a high water content, like watermelon, cucumber, lettuce, and celery\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Foods with a high fiber content, like apples, dried fruits, broccoli, beans, lentils, leafy greens, nuts, nut butters, and sweet potatoes\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clear soups and broths<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whole grain foods, like oats, popcorn, and brown rice\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"singlecare-dynamic-newsletter-wrapper sin-newsletter-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"heading\">Get our wellness newsletter<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"gastrointestinal-side-effects-of-miralax\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gastrointestinal side effects of MiraLax<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simpson says most people don\u2019t have stomach problems while taking MiraLax, but it can sometimes cause gas, bloating, or cramping, especially if you take too much too soon. Follow the dosing instructions on the package and be patient. When you take your dose of MiraLax, drink plenty of water to maintain adequate hydration\u2014it will help minimize common side effects. It usually takes about one to three days to work, so don\u2019t rush to take more if nothing happens immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many of the foods that cause constipation\u2014like fatty, fried, and sugary foods\u2014can also make the side effects of MiraLax feel worse. \u201cWhen your gut\u2019s already a little sensitive from a laxative, heavy meals can add to the discomfort; lighter, easier-to-digest foods are usually a better match while MiraLax is doing its thing,\u201d Simpson says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although most people tolerate MiraLax without any issues, there are times when you may need to contact a healthcare professional for medical advice while taking it. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.summithealth.com\/doctors\/provider\/1578806147\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">David DiCaprio<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, DO, gastroenterologist and internist with Summit Health<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, if you experience excessive diarrhea with signs of dehydration, like lightheadedness or fainting, you should check in with your medical provider. He also recommends contacting a provider if you take MiraLax and don\u2019t have a bowel movement in the expected timeframe, or experience extreme gas and a swollen stomach. These could be signs of a bowel obstruction.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"tips-for-maximizing-miralax-benefits\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tips for maximizing MiraLax benefits<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MiraLax is gentle enough to be used at <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">any time of day or night<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, with or without food, but there are some ways you can use it so it works more quickly and effectively.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. DiCaprio offers the following tips for making the most of MiraLax\u2019s benefits:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your bowels are most active during the day, so take it first thing in the morning.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eat a light meal after taking it; eating activates your metabolism, which can help MiraLax work better.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drink four to eight ounces of water with your MiraLax dose, and make sure to stay hydrated throughout the rest of the day, too.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get some exercise; it stimulates your bowel muscles and keeps stool moving through your intestines.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take a fiber supplement if you can\u2019t get enough high-fiber foods in your diet to keep stools soft after the MiraLax dose stops working.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><svg style=\"display:none\">\n  <g
