by oneself

The degree to which exercise relieves constipation varies from person to person and from age to age. Generally speaking, it is recommended to exercise 2-3 times a week for about 30 minutes each time, and slight sweating is appropriate.

Replenish enough water

Intestinal water loss is the main cause of constipation. Replenishing water can stimulate intestinal peristalsis, soften defecation, stimulate defecation at the same time, and cause reflex defecation. But never drink strong tea. Tannic acid in strong tea has astringent effect, which is not conducive to intestinal peristalsis

Keep a good mood

Cheerful mood and optimistic mood can increase the body's ability to prevent diseases and effectively improve immunity. On the contrary, negative emotions such as mental stress and anxiety can lead to constipation or aggravate its symptoms.

Press and rub your abdomen every day.

Sun Simiao, a famous doctor in the Tang Dynasty, said that "the abdomen should be rubbed frequently to eliminate all diseases". Rubbing your stomach regularly can not only increase gastrointestinal peristalsis, strengthen the spleen and stomach, but also dredge meridians and harmonize qi and blood. During daily massage, you can press your left hand on your abdomen, with your palm facing your navel and your right hand stacked on your left hand. You can also touch the abdomen with one hand and draw a circle from small to large with the navel as the origin. Chinese medicine often says that massage lasts for 36 or 72 minutes. There is no need to persist in the actual massage, but it is best to ensure that the time is more than 5 minutes, and the intensity should be moderate, from light to heavy, with a slight fever in the abdomen.

Drink hemp seed tea

First of all, hemp seed tea contains fatty oil, protein, minerals and multivitamins. Because fatty oil can moisten and smooth intestines, hemp seed is often used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat dry stool, especially for constipation caused by blood deficiency and body fluid deficiency in the elderly. In addition, patients with intestinal dryness, constipation, body deficiency and heat accumulation, postpartum fluid deficiency and blood deficiency are also very suitable for taking.

Secondly, hemp seed tea contains a lot of unsaturated fatty acids, which has the functions of regulating blood lipid, removing thrombus and improving immunity, and can prevent and treat hyperlipidemia, hypertension and diabetes. The International Society of Natural Medicine once conducted a survey and found that none of the centenarians who died in Bama died of hypertension, diabetes or cerebrovascular accident.
