How to restore intestinal peristalsis?
Intestine is an important part of the digestive system, which has the functions of digestion and absorption, forming feces and expelling toxins. When there are certain problems in the intestine, it will lead to digestive absorption disorder, abdominal distension, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea and other symptoms.

Regarding how to restore the power of the intestine, there are the following points that need to be done:

1. Eat more foods containing cellulose, that is, foods containing dietary fiber. Dietary fiber can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and promote stool formation. Eating more can effectively relieve constipation and diarrhea. Foods rich in cellulose include celery, vegetables, spinach, lettuce and other green vegetables. Foods like corn and sugar cane also contain dietary fiber.

2. Appropriate supplementation of probiotics, which can be said to be probiotics in the intestine, not only helps the intestine to decompose and digest food, but also effectively absorbs toxic substances in food, promotes gastrointestinal peristalsis, and regulates the flora environment in the intestine. Commonly used probiotics include Bifidobacterium triple, lactic acid bacteria, yeast and so on.

3. Exercise more: Exercise is actually a very important thing for the health of the intestines. Good exercise not only contributes to gastrointestinal peristalsis, but also effectively consumes excess fat in the body and reduces the formation of intestinal fat. For some patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction, proper exercise after meals is very necessary. Why do some patients get out of bed within 1-2 days after operation just to promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function and stimulate intestinal peristalsis?

4. Drink plenty of water: Drinking water helps to increase the moisture in the intestines, avoid dry stools, and prevent stools from scratching the mucous membranes around the intestines and anus. This situation is more common in children, and some children have dry stools, which will rupture the mucosa around the anus during the discharge process, leading to bleeding.

5. In restoring intestinal peristalsis, we should also avoid some behaviors harmful to the intestine. For example, eating too much high-fat, high-sugar and high-calorie foods will lead to excessive intestinal endotoxin, while spicy and irritating foods will cause certain damage to intestinal mucosa, leading to intestinal inflammation and ulcers.
