Seven habits aggravate constipation
1, eat processed food. This kind of food is high in fat, which tends to slow down digestion and lead to constipation. James Stevenson, a gastroenterologist at Indiana University, found that processed food contains a lot of fructan, which will destroy the natural digestion process of human body. Fructan exists in bread, noodles and biscuits, which is related to gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal distension, constipation, diarrhea and increased air displacement.
2. Drink alcohol or coffee. Excessive drinking or drinking coffee will lead to dehydration and hinder the normal peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract. Director of Gastroenterology, Long Beach Memorial Medical Center, California, USA? Shaha said that drinking alcohol will inhibit the secretion of antidiuretic hormone, leading to polyuria, dehydration and constipation. Caffeine is a stimulant, which easily aggravates constipation.
3. Eat more dairy products. The lactose content in dairy products is high, which is difficult for some people to digest and absorb. People with constipation eat too many dairy products, such as milk, ice cream and cream, which will only aggravate abdominal distension.
4. Don't exercise. Less physical activity is the main risk factor of constipation, which may be related to intestinal movement and decreased intestinal blood flow. Therefore, constipation patients should increase their exercise. Exercise increases the blood flow of important organs such as digestive tract, and also helps to improve metabolic function.
5. Excessive iron and calcium supplementation. Joanne, a gastroenterologist at Monte fiori Medical Center in new york? Covache said that iron and calcium can affect the contractile function of gastrointestinal tract and cause constipation. Unless these two nutrients are really lacking, it is not recommended for constipation patients to take nutrients containing iron and calcium.
6. Take painkillers. Some painkillers such as ibuprofen and naproxen may also cause constipation. You might as well stop using these drugs and take acetaminophen (paracetamol), which won't cause constipation. No matter what medicine you take, you should consult your doctor in advance.
7. rely on laxatives. Excessive dependence on antidiarrheal drugs for constipation does more harm than good. The body will be dependent on laxatives. Long-term use will lead to the loss of spontaneous contraction function of colon, electrolyte imbalance, seizures, arrhythmia and muscle pain. The dosage should be taken according to the drug instructions, and the time of taking any laxative should not exceed 2 weeks; Take different types of laxatives alternately when necessary (such as osmotic laxatives and dietary fiber).
