Healthy gastrointestinal tract

If a person wants to be in a good mood, be efficient and happy - he needs to establish short-term stool disorders. This is to ensure that these short-lived disorders do not go into the long-term. The process of emptying the bowel plays a very important role in the health of the whole organism. This, according to Academician Pavlov, is a very important act of reflection, which depends on so many factors of a person's life.

Violations of the act of defecation are even in those people who normally eat and drink enough water. The cause of these violations is a sharp change in the kitchen or climate or physical exertion, or emotional stress. Those people who often go on business trips, are well acquainted with these circumstances.

When a person often goes on business trips and his diet changes, instead of the usual menu he gets a fist-meal or cold snacks, and this can fundamentally affect the work of the gastrointestinal tract. Cold food can not provide enough stretching of the colon and rectum, can not cause the habitual fullness of the stomach. Therefore, a person gets too weak desires for defecation and its delays - infrequent or chronic - provided frequent trips.

There is another reason for such violations - it is impossible to go to the toilet as often as a person used to do it in the office. For example, in trains that follow a very long route, there are long-term parking, in the continuation of which the toilet can not be used. And so a man suffers, can not perform the act of defecation, when the body requires it, and next time he has a delay in feces.

What should I do if I have problems with my stool?

If such problems arise, do not get frustrated ahead of time. You just need to wait. If earlier your chair was adjusted regularly, now it can simply linger. That is, the act of defecation can take place more than once a day, as before, and once in two days - this is an acceptable standard for a healthy person. Most often the intestine itself is released from the stool with time.

Any person can comprehend the stool, there is nothing to worry about. But if you find that such delays occur more often and the intestine can no longer be emptied without the help of enemas or this process is too strained, then you need to see a doctor to correct the work of the gastrointestinal tract.

The right diet

At first, with short-term delays in defecation, you can and should improve and change your diet. When you have breakfast, you do not need to eat some buns - it helps constipation. It is better to replace them with a glass of yogurt or kefir, and eat the buns after the work of the stomach and intestines has been started.

Coffee on an empty stomach is also undesirable - it damages digestion. If you do not have the opportunity to go on a business trip with soups and borscht at home, stock up on dairy products.

Sour cream, yogurts, fermented baked milk, kefirchiki contribute to the work of the gastrointestinal tract and its normal emptying. Milk products with normal bifidoflora are good for your rectum and counteract constipation.

Instead of a bun, bread with bran and fresh fruit (separately) are also good. To the intestines work stably, it is very important to drink plenty of liquid - this will help digest food. Especially if it's hot outside.

And here's another important advice for traveling on a business trip. To eat normally and to digest food well, you need to take flax seed with you on the road - they are light and well stored. And it is also good to buy rye or wheat bran and toss them in porridge or if you can not eat porridge and salad - in yoghurts and kefirchiki. They work well on the stomach and intestines, stimulating their work.
