(입트영) inadequate water intake

Talk about constipation (Feb 15, 2013)

There are certain topics that we really don’t like to talk about. I think constipation is one of those topics. If you have suffered from constipation, you know how painful and frustrating it could be. Constipation refers to having infrequent bowel movements or difficulty in the passing of stool. Most of us get constipation at one time or another. It is more common in women and the elderly. Insufficient fiber in your diet, inadequate water intake and eating a lot of dairy products are some of the most common cause of constipation. In order to prevent constipation, you must increase fiber in your diet and fluid intake. You also need to exercise regularly.
