What Causes Hemorrhoids?
4. Insufficient Fiber
It is well known that having plenty of fiber in your diet is important for a healthy digestive system. If you don’t have enough fiber in your diet then it could result in loose stools, while it may also sometimes cause constipation. Constipation can result in the patient eventually having to pass large, hard stools, and this can put a lot of blood pressure on the blood vessels.
There is also a connection between having plenty of fiber in your diet, and a reduced blood pressure, further helping to prevent the likelihood of hemorrhoids developing. There are numerous other ways that a high fiber diet can help to prevent hemorrhoids, as well as helping to improve your health overall.
