High fiber diet( usually in husk, veggies, veg. Salads, fruits) is highly recommended and adequate water intake. You can limit non veg (mutton, chicken) in your diet.

To relieve constipation, try increasing fiber intake through foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water, engaging in regular physical activity like walking or exercise, considering a fiber supplement or natural laxatives like psyllium or prune juice, and establishing a consistent bowel routine, while also being mindful of dietary triggers and considering consultation with a healthcare professional if constipation persists or is severe.

1. High-Fiber Foods Increase dietary fiber gradually: • Fruits: Papaya, guava (with seeds), apple (with skin), banana (ripe), figs (anjeer soaked overnight). • Vegetables: Spinach, bottle gourd (lauki), pumpkin, carrot, beans, beetroot, cabbage. • Whole grains: Brown rice, whole wheat, bajra, jowar, oats, daliya (broken wheat), multigrain atta. • Legumes: Moong, masoor, rajma, chana—ensure they’re well-cooked. 2. Natural Laxatives • Soaked raisins or prunes: 5–10 overnight soaked raisins or 2–3 prunes in the morning. • Isabgol (psyllium husk): 1 tsp in warm water or milk at bedtime. • Ghee with warm milk: 1 tsp ghee in a cup of warm milk at bedtime works wonders. • Triphala churna: ½ tsp with warm water at night (if no pregnancy/lactation or active GI issues). 3. Hydration • Aim for 8–10 glasses of water daily. • Start your day with 1–2 glasses of warm water—you can add lemon and a pinch of salt. • Buttermilk (chaas) or coconut water during the day can also help digestion.
Next Steps
Lifestyle Tips • Morning routine: Try to go to the toilet at the same time daily—this trains your bowel. • Walk daily: 20–30 mins brisk walking helps bowel movements. • Don’t suppress the urge to go. • Limit tea/coffee to 1–2 cups; excessive caffeine can cause dehydration.
Health Tips
Avoid These • Refined flour (maida) foods like samosas, white bread. • Too much rice (especially polished white rice). • Deep-fried snacks. • Excess cheese, red meat, and processed foods.
