How does constipation go?
How much water do you drink?
When you drink insufficient water, the feces passing from the small intestine to the large intestine become more hard. This hard stool water after the absorption of the large intestine hardness increases thoroughly. When sufficient water is consumed (at least 30 ml per kilogram, for example, about 1800-2000 ml for a 60 kg individual), the feces that migrate to the large intestine become sufficiently watery. Therefore, it is very important that you drink plenty of water during the day. In addition, tea (open – less brewed), diluted and non-sugar added fruit compotes, plum juice and herbal teas are among the recommended liquids.
Feed pulp for constipation
After the food we eat is digested in our small intestine and the necessary substances pass into our blood, the remaining residues pass in plenty of juicy form from our small intestine to our large intestine. The task of our large intestine is to suck back the juice of this watery feces as it proceeds to the breech and ultimately turn it into 200-300 grams of solid feces. If we don't get enough fiber in our food, the amount of water sucked back from our large intestine increases and as a result the remaining feces become very solid and hard. Therefore, the most effective way to prevent constipation is to keep the fiber foods from your table.

As a result of this, the residence time of the feces in the large intestine is prolonged, the reabsorption of water from the feces increases and the feces become harder. Constipation develops because hard stool is difficult to remove. As the stool waits in the intestine, the width of the rectum increases after a while, its sensitivity disappears and the feeling of going to the toilet decreases. The need for defecation should not be postponed for more than 5-10 minutes to avoid constipation problems.
