Kind of self-explanatory right? So, you can either eat a teaspoon of it before bed, or according to renown Ayurvedic Doctor Vasant Lad “Taking 1 or 2 teaspoonfuls of ghee in a cup of hot milk at bedtime is an effective but gentle means of relieving constipation”. (Make sure that’s non-homogenized milk to receive the full medicinal qualities of milk at bedtime recipe)
