Should people with poor digestion eat too much fiber?
👩⚕️Everyone knows fiber is good for the digestive system, but eating too much is good for health? If you are wondering about this problem, the following article will explain it to you:
👉For people with poor digestion, eating too much fiber will cause bloating and constipation. Constipation from eating too much fiber occurs when a person eats more than 70mg of fiber per day.
Therefore, people with poor digestion should not eat too much fiber, but should eat a balanced diet to improve this condition.
✔A few warning signs you are eating too much fiber such as bloating, abdominal cramps, feeling full quickly.
📌In addition, it is necessary to provide enough both soluble and insoluble fiber for the body because:
✔ Insoluble fiber helps food pass easily through the stomach and intestines, balances PH and prevents inflammation in the intestines. Commonly found in whole grains, fruits, potatoes
✔Soluble fiber absorbs water and forms a gel in the digestive system. It is this gel form that slows down the digestive process and helps the patient feel fuller for longer. Commonly found in oats, legumes, nuts, and vegetables.
👉Patients should not eat only one type of fiber, but should eat both types and provide just enough. Should supplement other vitamins and minerals to help keep the body healthy
