Here are five practical steps that you can apply, according to various sources:
1. Take probiotics before and during your trip
Probiotics are good bacteria that play a role in maintaining intestinal health.Taking probiotics before and while traveling can help maintain intestinal stability.You can get it from yogurt, fermented drinks, or probiotic supplements.
Even though it looks simple, this step is quite effective in preventing constipation, especially for those of you who have sensitive digestion.
2. Stay active
Sitting for too long on a plane, car, or train can slow down bowel movements.Try to stay active, for example taking small walks during breaks, doing light stretches, or moving your legs while sitting.
Simple movements are enough to stimulate bowel movements to keep digestion smooth.
3. Fulfill your body’s fluid needs
Dehydration is one of the main triggers for constipation.When the body lacks fluids, the intestines absorb more water from food waste so that the feces harden.
Make sure you drink enough water before and during the trip.Limit consumption of coffee, tea and alcohol because they can cause the body to lose fluids more quickly.
4. Get enough sleep before leaving
Lack of sleep can disrupt the body’s rhythms, including digestive rhythms.Try to get enough sleep before traveling so that your body is not stressed and your digestive system continues to work optimally.
Getting enough rest also makes the body better prepared to face changes in routine while traveling.
5. Don’t hold in your bowel movements
Many people are reluctant to defecate in public toilets, even though holding in defecation actually makes the stool hard and makes constipation worse.If you have the urge to defecate, immediately look for a toilet.This habit helps keep your digestive rhythm regular even when you’re on the go.
These are some ways to prevent constipation when traveling.You can start applying it even a few days before departure so that your body is better prepared.We hope your trip remains comfortable and smooth.
