Dr. Carmen Fong, a double-board certified colorectal surgeon, has treated thousands of patients struggling with constipation, bloating, and gut issues. She even wrote the book on it—literally. Her book, Constipation Nation, dives deep into the science and history of constipation and why so many people suffer from it.


For years, people have relied on laxatives to get relief. But according to Dr. Fong, laxatives don’t fix the real problem—they just force your body to go. That’s why she recommends natural probiotics as a safer, long-term solution.


Not all probiotics are created equal, though. Most probiotics die in the stomach before they can even reach the gut, making them useless. That’s why Dr. Fong recommends spore-forming probiotics, like those in RMDY, which survive stomach acid and actually work to relieve constipation and bloating.


Here are 10 reasons Dr. Fong recommends RMDY instead of laxatives:

1. Laxatives Are Just a Band-Aid

Laxatives force the gut to empty, but they don’t help your body poop naturally. Over time, people can become dependent on them. Dr. Fong prefers probiotics, like those in RMDY, that restore gut balance so the body can stay regular on its own.

2. Most Probiotics Don’t Work—RMDY’s Do

Nearly every probiotic on the market is dead on arrival, destroyed by stomach acid before reaching the gut. RMDY’s spore-forming strains (like DE111) have a natural coating that survives stomach acids and reaches the intestines alive, where they actually help with constipation and bloating.

3. Can Start Working in as Little as 24 Hours

Dr. Fong sees many patients struggling with days of discomfort between bowel movements. RMDY’s probiotics, combined with digestive enzymes and anti-bloat herbs, can start working fast—sometimes within a day.

4. Helps Reduce Bloating and That “Heavy” Feeling

An unbalanced gut can lead to bloating, sluggishness, and that backed-up feeling. RMDY’s probiotics help restore good gut bacteria, reducing bloating and helping digestion flow smoothly.

5. No Harsh Side Effects

Laxatives often cause cramping, diarrhea, and urgency, which can disrupt daily life. RMDY works naturally with the body, promoting regularity without uncomfortable side effects.

6. Supports Long-Term Gut Health

Laxatives may provide quick relief, but they don’t fix the root problem. RMDY’s spore-forming probiotics, digestive enzymes, and prebiotics help strengthen gut health over time for consistent, natural digestion.

7. A Complete 4-in-1 Gut Health Solution

Unlike most probiotics, RMDY contains:
✔ Probiotics (live bacteria that restore gut balance)
✔ Prebiotics (food that helps probiotics grow)
✔ Digestive Enzymes (break down food more easily)
✔ Anti-Bloat Botanicals (ginger, peppermint, fennel)


It’s an all-in-one formula that helps support gut health from every angle.

8. No Refrigeration, No Hassle

Many probiotics require refrigeration or come in messy powders. RMDY’s shelf-stable formula is easy to carry anywhere, making it convenient for busy lifestyles.

9. Backed by Research, Trusted by Experts

Research studies have shown that DE111 can help relieve constipation and diarrhea for some. Plus, we partnered with a third party to conduct a double-blind, placebo-controlled study for RMDY. This study found that when compared to the placebo, 83% of participants reported feeling fewer symptoms of bloating, and 92% reported experiencing less post-meal discomfort.
