Oxy-Powder is an adult food supplement made by Global Healing. It contains magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide and citric acid, and it gently softens and loosens stool so your bowel can empty more easily. I've used it myself, and supported customers taking it, for 20 years. Read my honest review after 20 years.

Global Healing describes the formula as releasing oxygen in the digestive tract to soften stool. Magnesium also draws water into the bowel, which is why your stools become softer, and during a cleanse often watery. It doesn't contain stimulant laxatives such as senna.

Despite the name, Oxy-Powder comes in capsules, 120 to a pot. If you find capsules hard to swallow, you can open them and stir the powder into a glass of water.

Yes. In 2024 the packaging was updated to meet EU labelling standards, so it may look different from older pots or the US version. The formula is exactly the same.

Keep the pot closed, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Take it before bed with a full glass of water, at least two hours after your evening meal. I suggest starting with two capsules, or one if you're nervous or won't have easy access to a bathroom the next morning. See my step-by-step instructions.

Everyone is different. If two capsules don't give you two to three bowel movements the next day, add one capsule the following night, and keep going one at a time until they do. If you're going five or more times, reduce by one.

Most people take it before bed and go the next morning. If you're more constipated, you may notice gurgling and gas first, with a fuller response over one to two days. How long does Oxy-Powder take to work?

Once you've found the amount that gives you two to three bowel movements a day, you stay at that amount for seven days. It's a gentle way to empty the bowel and reset your routine. Read my 7-Day Cleanse guide.

You don't need to live on fruit. Lighter, simpler meals such as soup, eggs, fish, rice and cooked vegetables work well, with plenty of water. What to eat during an Oxy-Powder cleanse

Most people move to a gentle maintenance routine. A good starting point is half your cleanse dose, taken half as often, usually every second or third night. How to work out your maintenance dose

Every three to six months suits most people, depending on how settled your digestion is. Many also find a cleanse helpful after Christmas, holidays or any time their routine has slipped.

Yes. If you work nights, take it before your main sleep, whatever time that is. Just make sure you'll have easy access to a bathroom when it starts working.

Take it at a different time of day from your medication. If you're unsure about timing, your pharmacist can advise you.

Softer, looser stools are expected, especially during a cleanse. You may also notice gurgling and more gas for the first few nights as things start moving. If you're going more often than you'd like, reduce by one capsule and keep sipping water through the day.

Global Healing describes Oxy-Powder as non-stimulant and not known to cause dependency, and suggests two to three times a week for maintenance. If you find you need it every day, it's worth gently looking at why, and speaking with your GP. Is Oxy-Powder safe to use daily?

Please speak with your midwife, GP or pharmacist first, and bring the pot with you. If they're happy for you to take it, start gently with one capsule. Read more about Oxy-Powder in pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Oxy-Powder is for adults, so please speak to your GP before giving it to a child. Check with your GP first if you're pregnant, or if you have Crohn's, ulcerative colitis, another bowel condition or a kidney condition. Oxy-Powder can be taken with Crohn's or ulcerative colitis, but it's best to check with your GP.

If constipation keeps coming back, isn't improving, or you notice a change in your bowel habits you can't explain, please speak to your GP.
