Vibrating Capsule Treats Constipation without Drugs

Vibrating Capsule Treats Constipation without Drugs
May-10-14
A vibrating capsule meant to be swallowed may offer an alternative to medication for people who suffer from chronic constipation.

The tiny capsule is equipped with an electric motor that causes the entire device to vibrate. The vibrations are set to begin six to eight hours after the capsule has been swallowed, which gives it time to pass through the stomach and into the intestines. Once it has arrived at the intestines, the capsule's vibrations stimulate the intestine's contractions, helping to move stool along in a more natural way than can be accomplished by drugs.

Initial studies have shown marked success with no adverse effects.
