HOW HEALTHY HABITS MAY HELP CHRONIC CONSTIPATION SYMPTOMS

Experiencing symptoms of IBS-C or CIC? Establishing healthy diet and lifestyle habits could help with symptom management. These habits alone may not provide the relief you need, so you may want to add LINZESS as a daily treatment.

HEALTHY DIET & LIFESTYLE TIPS

Make dietary changes. Adding high-fiber foods such as fruits, vegetables, beans, and bran flakes to your diet may help create softer stools that are easier to pass.

Fried and fatty foods, along with alcohol and caffeinated beverages like coffee and soda, may worsen your symptoms and should be avoided. Consuming large meals can also trigger symptoms—eating smaller portions may help.
