Improving gastrointestinal function Although I rarely have problems with gastrointestinal convenience, sometimes I am stressed or filming all night, unhealthy diet and constipation are inevitable problems. If it were not for these special circumstances, I would like to give some suggestions to girls: drink more water, because if the body is short of water, the stool will be hard and naturally cause constipation; In addition, you must take in enough cellulose. Even if you like eating meat very much, you can't eat less vegetables and fruits, and the amount should exceed the meat, so as to help the gastrointestinal peristalsis and let the stool come out smoothly. Keep a certain amount of exercise if you can, because if you don't move, your body will stay there all the time and your metabolic cycle will be poor. How can your gastrointestinal function be good? Getting enough sleep every day is also the best. If you don't get enough sleep for a long time, it will also cause gastrointestinal tension, and some people will have constipation or habitual diarrhea. If your indigestion is due to your nervous personality, you must always massage your stomach and do exercise, and try to relax and let the tension slowly ease.
