Do you or does someone in your family experience occasional digestive stress…#2 problems…ok, fine, I’ll say it…CONSTIPATION?!
 
At the risk of TMI, travel-related…issues…have plagued me ever since I was a kid. As someone who loves to explore new places and meet new people, having “system errors” has often put a major crimp in my plans or just overall made things less enjoyable than they could be.

I searched and tried different methods, but the options available were either too aggressive and harsh or simply ineffective. I was also embarrassed to talk about what I thought were issues unique to me.

It wasn’t until I was nearly 40 and on a trip with friends that I discovered I was not alone.

I brought a container of prunes from the supermarket back to the apartment we were renting, and immediately my friends revealed to me they experienced the same issues as I did. [side note: it turns out 40% of people experience constipation while they are away from home! (The Atlantic, December 28, 2015)]

We all enjoyed prune flavor and appreciated prunes for their natural properties, but they weren’t as easy to travel with as we would like.

A lightbulb went off for me, and when I got back home, I started experimenting. A few months later, Prunies® were born!

To my delight, I found out that kiddos also love Prunies® and enjoy their natural benefits – so I made the pieces smaller so that fans of any age could enjoy Prunies®!
