What are the dietary treatments for female constipation?

Constipation is a common intestinal disease in life. There are many male and female patients in clinical practice. However, due to the special physiological structure of women, women are more likely to suffer from the disease than men, and the treatment is more troublesome, especially for middle-aged women. Their endocrine system is in a relatively disordered state. If constipation is present, it is more likely to cause the appearance of pigmentation and other conditions.

Women with constipation can drink more yogurt, which contains a large amount of active lactic acid bacteria, which can effectively regulate the balance of flora in the body, promote gastrointestinal motility, and thus relieve constipation. There is a certain relationship between long-term constipation and weight gain. In addition, yogurt has a strong sense of fullness. Drinking a glass of it when you are slightly hungry can effectively relieve your urgent appetite and thus reduce the amount of food you eat at the next meal.

Bananas are rich in potassium ions, which can promote gastrointestinal motility. Eating bananas is effective for both mechanical constipation (caused by slow motility of gastrointestinal smooth muscle) and constipation due to physical weakness, but you must pay attention to eating them scientifically. First of all, you have to grasp the right amount. You can eat 1 to 2 bananas a day. You can eat them as snacks between meals. It is not recommended to eat bananas on an empty stomach. Once it becomes a habit, it may cause some damage to the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, you can eat it with other foods. For example, add some diced bananas or honey when cooking porridge, which is good for relieving constipation.

Pure honey is a natural nutrient with many functions. It moisturizes the lungs and intestines, not only helps to increase the liver's detoxification ability, but also has the effects of strengthening the stomach and aiding digestion. Honey has excellent bactericidal and detoxifying effects. It helps to excrete waste accumulated in the body, improve constipation, improve the body's metabolic function, and better eliminate toxins from the body.

However, although the above-mentioned foods have a good effect in treating constipation, no matter what kind of food it is, long-term and large-scale consumption will inevitably have some adverse effects on the body. Therefore, we recommend that you ensure diversity when choosing food, especially for patients with constipation, eating more foods with higher dietary fiber content will have better effects.
