Constipation can actually lead to sudden death, three dietary therapies can easily prevent constipation

Constipation is not a serious disease, but it seriously affects people's quality of life. There are many foods in our lives that have a laxative effect, such as the following three types of porridge.

Sesame and Peach Kernel Porridge

Take 10 grams of cooked black sesame seeds, 10 grams of peach kernels, and 100 grams of rice. First wash the peach kernels and rice, then put them in a pot, add 600 ml of water, put them on the fire to boil, then simmer over low heat until they are 80% cooked, add cooked black sesame seeds and stir well, continue cooking until the porridge is cooked. Take once a day.

Function: This porridge nourishes the liver and kidneys, and moisturizes the intestines and stomach. If you suffer from long-term constipation, you can eat sesame porridge frequently, twice a day, for breakfast and dinner. It has a good effect of moisturizing the intestines and promoting bowel movements.

Fig porridge

30 grams of figs and 100 grams of glutinous rice. First boil the rice with water, then add the figs and cook into porridge. Just add appropriate amount of honey when eating.

Effect: Figs contain malic acid, citric acid, lipase, protease, hydrolase, etc., which can help the body digest food and promote appetite. Because they contain a variety of lipids, they have the effect of moisturizing the intestines and promoting bowel movements. People with hemorrhoids and constipation can try this porridge.

Sweet potato porridge

50 grams of sweet potato and 50 grams of millet. First wash the sweet potatoes and cut them into small pieces, clean the millet, put them together in a pot with 300 ml of water and boil them, then cook over low heat until the rice is soft and becomes porridge. Take it twice a day, preferably in the morning and dinner.

Function: Millet strengthens the spleen and stomach, and sweet potatoes are rich in dietary fiber, which can stimulate intestinal peristalsis and are a special food for laxatives.

Dangers of constipation:

1. Impact on beauty: Constipated patients have feces retained in the intestines for a long time, which causes abnormal fermentation and corruption. A large amount of harmful toxins may be produced, making them prone to acne, facial pigmentation, rashes, etc.

2. Causes obesity: Toxins cause edema in the large intestine and slow down blood circulation in the lower body, which can easily lead to a pear-shaped figure and a fat belly.

3. Produce body odor: The accumulation of toxins can cause bad breath and body odor.

4. Food becomes tasteless: Constipation can cause abdominal distension, nausea, anorexia, and tasteless food.

5. Neurasthenia: Patients with constipation may have symptoms such as irritability, restlessness, and insomnia.

6. Cause dysmenorrhea: Patients with chronic constipation often suffer from dysmenorrhea due to long-term pelvic muscle stimulation.

7. Decreased libido: Patients with long-term constipation may experience decreased libido, leading to impotence and premature ejaculation in men, and frigidity or lack of orgasm in women, which reduces the quality of their sex life.

8. Concurrent diseases: Patients with constipation may suffer from anorectal diseases, such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, rectal prolapse and colon diverticulum. In addition, they are also prone to allergic diseases such as urticaria, asthma, gallstones, headaches, shoulder stiffness and many other diseases.

9. Induce cancer: In addition, it can also induce breast cancer: The harmful toxins of constipated patients continue to stimulate the intestinal mucosa, which can easily lead to colorectal cancer. In addition, it can also induce breast cancer.

10. Cause sudden death: Especially for patients with cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and coronary heart disease, severe constipation can cause a sharp rise in blood pressure, leading to stroke or even sudden death.
