Bedwetting often Could Mean Less Eat Fiber

Less eating fiber is one of the main triggers of constipation or bowel obstruction. But the impact of eating less fiber not only in the gastrointestinal tract, but also in the urinary tract and can cause frequent bedwetting.

Often wet during sleep can not be said to be a direct result of eating less fiber. But according to research, people who experience constipation from lack of food fibers tend to be more susceptible to wetting due to bladder problems.

This is evident in the observations made by scientists from Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, the 30 children and adolescents who complain often wet. Once checked, most of whom have a lot of feces or feces that accumulate in the colon.

Dirt was piled up to the

consistency or shape tend to be solid, because the participants experienced a bowel obstruction in recent days. But in general, the participants did not realize that he was constipated so it is not addressed.

Consequently, piles of dirt that puts pressure on the lower abdomen, urgent bladder so that capacity is reduced. At night, it becomes quickly bladder is full and if the participants are not awakened to the toilet then there is bedwetting.

Proved when scientists treat constipation are not aware of the study participants, the complaint bedwetting at night were also reduced 83 percent in the next three months. Constipation or difficult bowel movements only treated with laxatives or laxatives.

The relationship between constipation with risk of wetting during sleep is actually not the first time revealed by scientists. Several previous studies have confirmed it, even the first research revealing the relationship between the two had been published in 1986.

"Parents are often mishandled children often wet, for example by limiting drinking water. This method will not work if the real problem is constipation that does not get caught," said one researcher, Steve J Hodges, MD, as quoted from Indiavision,
