Yes. Prunes can cause gas. It is caused by a problem absorbing the fruit sugar, fructose.
Firstly, the right sort of plum has to be used - one with solid flesh, low moisture content, and high sugar content. Then the fruit is dehydrated whole, either by a machine for the purpose, in the sun, or left on the tree. Suitable autumn conditions are needed for the latter two methods.
rabbits should not eat most kind of dried fruit bannanas are alright but do not feed them anyother fruit so prunes are out of the question
The white spots you might see on prunes are not mold. The spots are sugars crystallizing on the surface. The prunes are still perfectly safe to eat. Dried fruit can last up to a year and even longer if refrigerated.
A prune is a plum which has been dried. Plums grow on trees and can be purple, red or yellow. They have a somewhat flattened pip, which contains a nut which resembles an almond.
The cost of prunes varies by the quantity purchased, the quality of the product, what type of store they are purchased at and the geographic location where the purchase is made. For retail quantities of average quality prunes purchased at a grocery store in the US, you can expect to pay between $2 and $3.50 per pound. The standard 9 ounce package of good quality prunes should cost between $1 and $2.
It all depends on what your situation is like. The best way to do it is to start with 3 Prunes, if that doesn't work then eat 5. That should do it for you. Keep that up for 3 to 5 days, if there is no relief, then see a doctor
Usually, if you just need to have a movement but are not feeling particularly impacted a serving of 7 sunsweet bite sized prunes with a cup of hot tea or coffee will work in a few hours. If you are really bound up you might need to eat 7 more after about 4 or 5 hours, but be prepared for the fallout, after the initial hard dry fecal matter is expelled, you're going to go a few more times. DO NOT MISTAKE IT FOR GAS... if you gamble, you WILL lose! Good luck!
