Surveys have estimated that over 4 million people in the United States have frequent constipation, corresponding to a prevalence of about 2 percent. Constipation was the most common digestive complaint in the United States, outnumbering all other chronic digestive conditions.

Recommendations

Avoid excessive and rapid consumption of fiber , as it can cause annoying digestive symptoms ( flatulence and bloating of the belly). It is better to gradually increase consumption. Begin by adding 5 grams of fiber to your diet for 5 to 6 weeks. Then another 5 grams is added (3 tablespoons of wheat bran, for example).

Get enough fluids when eating foods with fiber to be able to digest it better.

Avoid its consumption in case you feel your heartbeat or breathing accelerate, if your face swells, if your skin itches or you feel tightness in your throat.

Avoid ingesting it if you suffer from an allergic reaction to psyllium, a high-fiber seed that is used as an ingredient in fiber supplements.

Constipation is widespread among Americans. Almost everyone experiences constipation at some point in their lives, with a recent survey showing that 16 percent of Americans and a third of those older than 60 suffer from chronic constipation
