What causes constipation?

Frequent constipation has a great impact on physical health. Constipation is often caused by bad living habits, such as long-term sitting and lack of exercise, or lack of crude fiber in the diet.

1. Lack of crude fiber in the diet: eating out, irregular eating, and no time to take care of balanced nutrition, the intake of crude fiber food is often insufficient. It is recommended to eat more vegetables and whole grains.

2. Sedentary people: Sitting for a long time and lack of physical exercise

, the intestinal muscles become relaxed and the peristaltic function weakens. In addition, women's abdominal muscles are naturally weaker, and the force used to push stool out is small, so they are more prone to constipation.

3. People who are overworked or mentally stressed: Overwork and mental stress can inhibit intestinal motility and secretion of digestive juices, leading to indigestion and constipation. It is recommended to take more rest.

4. People who do not drink enough water: For some people, constipation problems are not improved even after drinking enough water. This is because the way of drinking water is incorrect. If you drink water slowly, one sip at a time, almost all the water will be absorbed into the blood and excreted from the body through urine. It is recommended to drink plenty of water, especially after getting up in the morning.

5. People with poor bowel habits: those who are busy at work or are pressed for time in the morning and do not defecate in time when they feel the urge to do so, often holding it in. This causes the sensory nerves in the rectum to become dull, resulting in habitual constipation. Regular bowel movement is recommended.

6. Causes of insufficient beneficial intestinal bacteria: After taking antibiotics or other drugs, the beneficial bacteria in the intestines are destroyed, causing indigestion and constipation. It is recommended to use golden bifidobacterium factor to proliferate bifidobacteria in the intestine to prevent constipation.
