Constipation can be treated with self-care, that is, with healthy habits.
11/5/2023
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) explains that the colon is the “longest part of the large intestine” that has different functions, including “extracting water and some nutrients and electrolytes from partially digested food. Undigested, solid waste, called feces, moves through the colon, is stored in the rectum, and leaves the body through the anus. The colon is a part of the digestive system”, he mentions.
For this reason, self-care stands out among the most appropriate treatments, however, it is important to mention that if constipation does not improve, a health professional should be consulted, who will modify eating habits, prioritizing the consumption of fruits and vegetables.
Likewise, the Mayo Clinic points out that for this, water intake is important because it softens the stool and facilitates its evacuation, combating irritable bowel syndrome or irritable colon, as it is also called.
for his part better with health He adds that among the properties of anise, the carminatives stand out, which in the words of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE) means that “it favors the expulsion of gases developed in the digestive tract.”
The same happens with constipation, since it facilitates the evacuation of feces because it is composed of anethole.
- Boil a cup of water
- Add the anise
- come down from the fire
- Cover and let rest
- Consume
However, gases -or flatulence- are also related to constipation and irritable colon, but what are the habits to prevent them?
bodymind indicates that chewing slowly prevents the accumulation of gases. For this reason, he recommends having at least 30 minutes to focus on just eating.
Also do relaxation exercises before each meal. This includes turning off the mobile device and the television that can help concentration at mealtime, and thus reduce intestinal gas.
another piece of advice bodymind mentioned is not to drink fluids between meals. Likewise, he suggests adding drops of lemon juice to salads, for example, or other types of food.
Finally, you can also drink other infusions -not just anise- that help the proper functioning of the digestive system such as cinnamon, among others. However, consulting with a health expert is essential because any product that suggests fighting digestive problems can have opposite effects.
