Answer 1

Rani should start eating foods rich in dietary fiber to get rid of this problem.  

• The food items she now eats are chiefly made up of refined flour which does not have dietary fiber.
• Dietary fiber or roughage makes the feces bulky by increasing its weight and size making it easier to pass, thus relieving constipation.  .

• This is because, unlike other nutrients that  get digested in the body, roughage cannot be digested, so passed as it is.
• Roughage is found in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, legumes, etc.
• It has many health benefits, so it is included in the diet for the management of diabetes, heart diseases, improper bowel movements, etc.  and weight loss programs.
• In addition, Rani should avoid eating unhealthy foods to stay healthy.
