<\/span>Some other useful tips\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n- Take it slow\u00a0<\/strong>
\nMost people eat less than the recommended amount of fiber per day. Even then, making rapid changes in your diet is not suggested. Make sure you increase the fiber content in your diet gradually to prevent acidity, gas and bloating. It will also give your gut time to adjust to the new changes.<\/li>\n- Keep yourself hydrated\u00a0<\/strong>
\nDrinking 2liters of water in a day is highly recommended. But when you eat a diet rich in fiber it becomes all the more important to keep your body hydrated. Fiber pulls water into the intestines. And without adequate hydration, fiber can aggravate constipation rather than reducing it. Try to drink eight glasses of water.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nExperts say one should not overwhelm your system with drastic changes. Also, make sure you don\u2019t do too many changes at once. Go slow and one step at a time for most fruitful results. Eat healthy and aim at healthy living instead of being a particular size or weight.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
