Constipated patients can usually eat corn, but need appropriate amount.
Corn contains a lot of dietary fiber, can promote intestinal motility, help faeces pass through the intestine faster, reduce the time faeces stay in the intestine, thus alleviating constipation symptoms. In addition, dietary fiber absorbs water in the intestine and expands, increasing the volume of faeces, making it easier to excrete. Although corn has certain benefits for constipation, excessive consumption may cause abdominal distension, indigestion and other discomfort, so it is necessary to eat moderate
amount.
