Constipation & Weight Gain - Causes of Weight Gain

Are you full of .....well, let's just say unwanted baggage that is weighing you down?

Though there are many contributing constipation offenders, our diet greatly impacts our bowel habits - and a poor diet can impact it, literally. Constipation may also weigh down our scales - as well as our overall level of health.

To get a better understanding of how diet effects constipation, we simply need to turn to our pets.  Think about this...

When a pet's diet changes, their bowel consistency changes.  The swift introduction of a strange food into their diet may not only trigger constipation, but may have the opposite effect and trigger diarrhea.

If we humans employed a specific diet day in and day out that contained all the necessary nutrients our bodies require, most of us could achieve regularity.  

But being human, the same diet day in and day out becomes a boring diet - one that we may even have to force down as time goes by.

So rather than go to a drastic diet, a better solution might be to fill our current daily diets with foods that fight constipation.

Here are a few suggestions:

A fruity solution for constipation is to 'pick fruit' over sugary desserts at meal times, as well as for snacks.  Prunes are a common constipation solution, and here are few more great fruity choices: apples, raisins, figs and blackberries.

Veg constipation out with fresh vegetables such as pumpkin, sweet potatoes, parsnips, okra, brussel sprouts and corn.

Water down your constipation by drinking at least eight cups of water each day - without tea, coffee or other powders added - just clear, clean water.
