The first manifestation is those with dry stools. Most of these patients have particularly dry stools and hard stools, and their bodies are often strong. For this type of constipation patients, it is best to juice raw radish and drink it on an empty stomach when getting up early.

The second manifestation is those with sticky stools. Patients with constipation often feel that their stools are not clean and are difficult to wipe them clean after defecation. This type of constipation is caused by damp heat in the body. It is best to soak radish seeds in water or boil them in water, and take it on an empty stomach after getting up early.

The third manifestation is defecation weakness. These patients may not have dry stools, but have difficulty defecation. Generally speaking, the elderly are more common. The key to diet therapy for this type of constipation patients is to replenish qi. You can choose raw atractylodes rhizome, ground into powder, and take 30 grams orally every day. You can also add some astragalus and boil it in water.

The fourth constitution is those with deficiency of yin blood and blood. Such constipation patients are often thinner or older. The therapeutic method is to grind raw polygonum multiflorum into powder and mix it with black sesame seeds to make a paste, and then add honey or sesame oil according to your personal taste. If you are diabetic, it is better to add sesame oil instead of honey.
