It is essential to avoid constipation during weight loss for these three major reasons:
1. Elimination of toxins: Constipation prevents the effective elimination of toxins and wastes. If your body doesn't get rid of these substances properly, they can be reabsorbed, harming digestion and overall health.
2. Metabolism support: Regular intestinal transit supports an active metabolism. Constipation can slow down your metabolism, making weight loss more difficult by reducing the efficiency of converting food into energy.
3. General well-being: Constipation causes discomfort like bloating, abdominal pain and a feeling of heaviness. This can affect your motivation and commitment to your weight loss goals.
To optimize your health and achieve your goals, make sure you eat a diet rich in fiber and hydrate well.
