Constipation! Everyone has faced this problem at least once. It usually lasts a day or two, and then everything is back to normal. However, for nearly 25% of people in the world, constipation is a serious disease that worsens the quality of life. The percentage is probably even higher, but people are ashamed to admit it. They avoid talking about their problems and do not seek medical help. They buy laxatives that induce bowel movements, but they are only a temporary solution. In 25% of cases, as we have already mentioned, it is not a matter of momentary burning, but of a serious health problem that requires timely intervention. We should not be ashamed when it comes to our health. And that is exactly why we will now talk about this taboo topic - constipation.
What is constipation and why is it dangerous?
The medical term is constipation. It is characterized by difficult bowel movement (defecation), accompanied by straining and sometimes pain. Due to a slow metabolism, her food needs more time to be processed. The stools become hard, and their passage through the large intestine is difficult and painful. Often the bowel movement cannot be completed completely. Accompanying symptoms of constipation are a swollen abdomen, pain and/or gas. Less often, patients complain of headache, fatigue, nausea or vomiting, lack of appetite.
Constipation inevitably affects the quality of life and social contacts. Physical activity decreases, so does the desire to communicate. Irregular Forget about constipation and enjoy life with Bactojoy Gastro Balance
defecation also leads to the retention of toxins in the body, which in turn leads to weight gain. In some cases, irritable bowel syndrome develops, which is a prerequisite for colon cancer.
The disease of the 21st century
Unfortunately, the number of people suffering from constipation is increasing every year. The main reason is our diet, which is abundant in carbohydrates and fats. We often skip meals and then overeat. We subject our digestive system to all kinds of torture, and sedentary lifestyles and high levels of stress exacerbate the problem. The result – a swollen belly, gas, constipation, diarrhea... These conditions can affect anyone, regardless of gender or age. Women suffer from constipation two to three times more often than men, especially during pregnancy, when the body undergoes hormonal and physical changes. Many prenatal nutritional supplements, such as those containing iron, cause constipation. On the other hand, the uterus puts pressure on the intestines and further complicates the movement of food. In people over 60 years of age, the frequency of the disease jumps to 50%. The percentages also increase due to the intake of certain drugs (antidepressants, pain relievers, diuretics, antibiotics, chemotherapy drugs).
One in two suffers from constipation when traveling when eating habits are disturbed. The frequency and type of food intake changes sharply. Because of the time difference, we eat at different times than our gastrointestinal tract is used to. We delay defecation due to inconvenience or poor hygiene in public toilets. If you think about it, for some people this is everyday life. A significant percentage refuse to visit the toilet in the office and postpone defecation until they get home. This is also among the most common causes of constipation.
Eating habits and constipation (and how to avoid it)
We make many mistakes in our diet that lead to constipation:
- We consume too many sugars and fats , which destroy the good bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract.
The solution: Replace them with fiber-rich foods. Such are fruits and vegetables, nuts, cereals and legumes, whole grain bread. To be able to digest properly, our body needs 30 g of fiber per day. They are not digested, but pass through the gastrointestinal tract almost intact. They serve as food for probiotic bacteria and promote bowel movements. When they fulfill their function, they are expelled from the body.
- We overeat .
The solution: To eat often and in small amounts, so as not to complicate the work of the stomach and intestines.
- We eat quickly and on foot .
The solution: In our hectic everyday life, we sometimes find it difficult to find time to sit down to eat, which is a big mistake. We should eat in a sitting position and chew food slowly. Let's not forget that digestion begins in the mouth.
- We don't drink enough water.
The solution: To stay hydrated, we need to drink at least 2 liters of water a day, and those who exercise - at least 3. A glass of warm water with lemon would be a great start to the day. In this way, we move the digestive tract and purify the body.
- We lead a sedentary lifestyle.
The solution: Movement promotes a faster metabolism. Let's choose the sport we like and start. And whoever does not have the opportunity to do sports, should take at least 10,000 steps a day. The important thing is to have movement!
- Our menu lacks probiotics.
The solution: Take 1 capsule of Bactojoy Gastro Balance up to 30 minutes after a meal. And what will be the effect - you will learn in the following lines.
Probiotics for constipation
Probiotics contain those live bacteria that are natural inhabitants of our gastrointestinal tract. They are responsible for digestion and many other processes in the body. However, the composition of the intestinal microflora can easily be disturbed due to various factors. Then all those bad bacteria that cause constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, gas begin to multiply...
Don't be afraid. Probiotics come to the rescue. A number of studies around the world prove that it is bacteria from the genera Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium that play a key role in successfully dealing with constipation. They have the ability to speed up metabolism and, accordingly, the time for which food passes through the gastrointestinal tract. They also support the elimination of fat, improve the consistency of stools and the frequency of bowel movements. In addition, 90% of our immune system is located in the gut, which means that by improving gut health, probiotics also stimulate our entire immune system.
