Stay in the know
Constipation can be bothersome and persistent. Because we know how frustrating and stressful it can be, we can help you identify the causes of your constipation and how to prevent it.
Which daily habits can cause constipation?
There are things we do during the day that can have an impact on our digestive system. Stress, travel, diet and lifestyle can all cause constipation. But fear not, there are some simple changes you can make to get things moving again.
Why can stress cause constipation?
Our digestive system is sensitive to stress. Whether you’re experiencing stress at work, fighting against deadlines or going through a tough time in a relationship, it can all impact heavily on your digestive system. Healthy mind, healthy body.
Why can travel cause constipation?
Constipation can happen when your life or daily routine changes. For example, travelling can sometimes shake things up and change your bowel movements. Adapting to new time zones, new foods and new environments can trigger your digestive system to get constipated.
Why does pregnancy cause constipation?
During pregnancy, certain hormones increase and trigger lots of changes in the body. Pregnant women often suffer from difficult and irregular trips to the toilet, as well as abdominal pain and discomfort. Although not dangerous in most cases, it's important to deal with constipation properly in pregnancy.
Why does getting older cause constipation?
As we get older, our bowel muscles need a little more time to move food and poo through the intestines. That's why constipation is common in elderly people - and it can have a considerable impact on their quality of life. Understand how age can change your body and how to adapt to help yourself feel better.
