High-fiber Diet for Constipation

Some reminders: 

  • Use unrefined food products instead of processed foods. Natural form of food has higher fiber content. Food processing decreases the fiber content.
  • Substitute meat and fish with legumes and nuts.
  • Increase fluid intake. Drink 8 to 10 glasses of water daily between meals
  • Include the pulp and inner skin of the fruit or fruit juices upon consumption
  • As for the leafy vegetables, some stems, stalks and leaves should also be included in the diet
