Does it help with constipation? Well, I wouldn't know from experience 'cause I'm a D. But this is what it says on the box of Equalactin:

"Irritable bowel, with symptoms of abdominal discomfort and alternating bouts of diarrhea and constipation, afflicts millions. It is caused by water imbalance in the bowel, which can be triggered by stress. Too much free water in the intestinal tract causes loose stools and diarrhea. Too little water in the bowel results in hard, dry stools, and constipation. Just 10% difference in the water content can tilt the balance between diarrhea and constipation. Equalactin provides relief by EQUALIZING the water balance to restore normal bowel movements. In the diarrhea stage of irritable bowel, Equalactin absorbs water and gives the stool bulk and substance, leading to normal bowel movements. In the constipation stage, Equalactin binds the water to the hard, dry stool, creating softer stools that are easier to pass. In whatever stage you take Equalactin, you can expect normal bowel movements in 12-72 hours. When you feel the onset of irritable bowel symptoms, take Equalactin to provide relief and to prevent the episode from becoming severe."

I got an introductory package of the stuff from Heather when I ordered her acacia -- so I tried it and liked it. I then tried to get some at the drug store, but they didn't have it -- however, they ordered it for me.

I like it.
