Four ways to eat to aggravate constipation error 1: light diet, no oil or less food
As soon as many people have constipation, they think that they eat too much fish and meat, and then they eat special vegetables. In fact, constipation people also need to eat some oil, because the human body needs grease lubrication, lack of will aggravate constipation.
There are many people believe that eating less will relieve constipation, which is also a mistake. Because the intestines need food to stimulate and promote defecation. If the food is not enough, the excrement does not have enough raw materials, of course, it cannot be discharged. So do not refuse to eat when constipation, otherwise it will aggravate constipation.
For people who have been on a diet to lose weight, they may also be constipated because of the above reasons.
Error 2: eat high fiber food and ignore drinking water
Many people believe that dietary fiber can help defecate, so when constipation, they eat a lot of high fiber food, but ignore drinking water. In fact, feces should form a volume in the large intestine. In addition to fiber, there should be water to help it expand, so as to stimulate the intestine.
So if you eat a lot of fiber, but the water is not enough, the fiber will not expand, and the feces will be small, dense, and hard to dry, so the transportation in the intestine will be slower.
In addition, one of the basic functions of the large intestine is to recover the water in the feces. The more water is lacking in the body, the drier the feces are, and the more serious constipation is. Many people may think that they are "stubborn constipation", but they only drink too little water.
It should be noted that dietary fiber in fruits and vegetables can relieve constipation, but excessive consumption can also cause flatulence and abdominal pain, and people with poor gastrointestinal function will stimulate their stomach if they eat more.
Error 3: bananas are not right
It is generally believed that bananas are emollient. In fact, only ripe bananas can have the above functions. If you eat more raw bananas, you will not pass stool, but will increase constipation. Because, do not have ripe banana contain more tannic acid, have astringent effect to alimentary canal, can restrain gastrointestinal peristalsis.
Generally speaking, bananas are best eaten when they are stored in a well ventilated place with black spots on the skin, but the texture of the inside hasn't changed. Remind everyone to drink more water when eating bananas.
Error 4: drink a lot of tea
Drinking tea "clear fire" can improve constipation, which is also a very common mistake. In fact, constipation is not appropriate to drink more tea. Because tea has astringent effect, drinking too much will aggravate constipation instead. Constipation as long as you drink more water, water than usual 2-3 times more, divided into 8-10 times to drink.
Experts suggest: when constipation occurs, you should first reflect on your diet, and then "take the right medicine for the right situation":
If you eat too little, you need to increase your food intake to 70% full; if you eat less fiber, you need to replace part of the main food with coarse grain, increase your intake of fruits and vegetables, and also drink more water; if you are dry and lack of water, you need to increase your drinking water.
In addition to diet, lack of sleep, high pressure, anxiety and so on, long-term excitement of sympathetic nerves can inhibit gastrointestinal peristalsis and also cause constipation. These people should adjust their mood and pay more attention to rest.
