Constipation refers to a decrease in the frequency of bowel movements, which occurs once every two to three days or more, with no regularity, dry and hard stools, and often with a sense of difficulty in defecating. In addition to the various clinical manifestations of the primary disease causing constipation, constipation itself can also cause systemic or local symptoms in people with chronic constipation. Because the fecal mass stays in the intestine for a long time, it can cause abdominal distension and lower abdominal pain, and it can also cause abnormal fermentation and decay, and produce a lot of harmful toxins, which can cause headache, dizziness, loss of appetite, bitterness, irritability, and weakness. If the intestinal toxins are not discharged will also cause intestinal cancer and other pathologies. Relevant statistics show that the incidence of constipation in the elderly is as high as 30% or more, which has become a problem affecting the quality of life of the elderly that cannot be ignored. Due to the decline of physiological functions of the elderly, gastrointestinal function is prone to dysfunction, coupled with less physical activity, decreased food intake, or because the staple food is too fine, the lack of coarse fiber vegetables in the diet, etc., may form habitual constipation. Some people suffering from hypertension, coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, cerebral arteriosclerosis, chronic emphysema and other diseases, such as habitual constipation and excessive force during defecation, is likely to produce accidents. Therefore, constipation needs to be treated in a timely manner, especially in the elderly, because of physical reasons, causing more constipation conditions, must be treated in a timely manner to avoid causing danger. And the treatment of constipation, patients need to bear in mind the following “recipe”: First, “water” patients can insist on drinking the day after boiling naturally cooled warm water, at least 8-10 cups a day, or drink cassia seed tea, green tea, and insist on Every night before bed, at midnight when you wake up and morning after each drink a glass of plain water. Both played a “washing”, “thin blood” role, but also stimulate the gastrointestinal tract, conducive to softening stools through the stool. Second, “soft” after middle age, the gastrointestinal tract function is reduced, the need to eat cooked soft food, which is conducive to digestion and absorption of the spleen and stomach and intestinal excretion. Third, “coarse” often eat foods rich in dietary fiber, such as whole grain (coarse grain) food, potatoes, green vegetables, white radish, celery, loofah, spinach, kelp, tomatoes, apples, bananas, pears, etc., can be appropriate to choose several of these foods with food every day to stimulate intestinal peristalsis, to speed up the excretion of feces. Fourth, “row” regular (morning) defecation, without delay, so that the intestines are always clear. Wash the anus and perineum with warm water after defecation to keep clean. Fifth, “move” moderate exercise, jogging, walking every morning and evening to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis. In addition, morning and evening each do an abdominal breathing for 15 minutes, so that the small abdomen, waist and back with a feeling of heat. With the ups and downs of the abdominal muscles movement, stomach and intestinal activity increased, digestive function has also been enhanced, the rejection of the dregs more thoroughly.
