🛑Struggling with Constipation?🛑
It’s not just what you eat — it’s also what you shouldn’t. Certain foods can slow down your digestion and make constipation worse. Here’s a list of the most common culprits to avoid 👇
🥩Red Meat
Hard to digest and low in fiber. Plus, it can crowd out healthier fiber-rich foods!
🧀Dairy (in excess)
Cheese, milk, and ice cream can slow things down for some people — especially if you’re lactose intolerant.
🍟Fried & Fast Foods
High in fat, low in fiber = digestive disaster. They
also often lack the hydration your gut needs.
🍞Refined Carbs
White bread, white rice, and pastries are stripped of fiber. No help in getting things moving!
🍫Chocolate
Loved by many, but can cause sluggish digestion for some - especially when combined with low fluid intake.
🚫Alcohol
Dehydrates the body and slows digestion. If you’re drinking, balance it with plenty of water.
✅Tip: Focus on high-fiber foods (fruits, veggies, whole grains), drink lots of water, and stay active to keep things flowing naturally!
Hydration is KEY.
Even a fiber-rich diet won’t help if you’re not drinking enough water. Aim for at least 8 cups/ day — more if you’re active or in a hot climate!
🧻Your gut will thank you!
