Treatment of Constipation
Prevalent in city dwellers, constipation is primarily caused by an unhealthy lifestyle, such as insufficient fibre or fluid intake and lack of exercise. As the muscular movement through the gastrointestinal tract (or peristalsis) slows down, stools may remain in the intestine for too long and become hardened with water absorbed by the colon. Constipation is usually defined as having fewer than two bowel movements a week or difficulty passing stools, with symptoms lasting over 4 weeks.
