There are a number of reasons why someone can become constipated on the keto diet, but the main ones are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jumping into the diet head-first and leaving no transition period for your body to adjust<\/li>\n<li>Not getting enough fiber<\/li>\n<li>Dehydration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Most importantly, the keto diet calls for a reduced intake of carbohydrates, which has been shown to have a negative effect on the digestive system, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC2633336\/\">resulting in constipation in about half of dieters<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how_long_does_constipation_usually_last_on_the_keto_diet\"><\/span>How Long Does Constipation Usually Last on the Keto Diet?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For those who are just starting their keto journey, it\u2019s important to keep in mind that constipation is often a temporary side effect that goes away after your body has adjusted to this new dietary pattern.

Let\u2019s take a look at some of them.<\/p>\n<h3>Get enough fiber<\/h3>\n<p>One of the first things you\u2019ll hear about managing constipation is to increase your fiber intake. It\u2019s true \u2013 both soluble fiber and insoluble fiber play an important role in <a href=\"https:\/\/health.clevelandclinic.org\/whats-the-difference-between-soluble-and-insoluble-fiber\/\">maintaining a healthy digestive system and promoting regular bowel movements<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, it\u2019s no surprise that a diet lacking in dietary fiber is a major cause of constipation.<\/p>\n<p>Considering that fiber is a type of carbohydrate, and the keto diet limits the intake of carbs, it becomes easy to eat too little fiber and experience issues with your digestive tract.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, there are a variety of keto-friendly high fiber foods that you can incorporate into your diet:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Avocado<\/li>\n<li>Berries such as blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries<\/li>\n<li>Coconuts<\/li>\n<li>Non-starchy vegetables such as asparagus, cauliflower, leafy greens, and zucchini as opposed to starchy vegetables since they contain less fiber<\/li>\n<li>Nuts and seeds such as almonds, chia seeds, and flax seeds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While on keto, it\u2019s crucial to make time for meal planning. This way, you can make sure that you\u2019re following a high fiber diet by incorporating fiber-rich foods into your meals.<\/p>\n<h3>Hydration is key<\/h3>\n<p>Staying hydrated is important for a number of reasons; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.harvard.edu\/staying-healthy\/how-much-water-should-you-drink\">it helps regulate your body temperature and plays a crucial role in digestive function<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no surprise that <a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/diseases\/4059-constipation\">dehydration<\/a> is one of the most common reasons for constipation, even more so if you\u2019re on keto. Why? The answer is ketosis.<\/p>\n<p>As we\u2019ve already established, the main goal of the keto diet is to trigger ketosis. As your body shifts from burning glucose to burning fat, your liver starts producing ketones which is often accompanied by mild dehydration or, if left unchecked, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK499830\/\">severe dehydration<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In order to avoid dehydration, make sure to increase your water intake. This can be done in a few ways:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Drinking more water<\/li>\n<li>Drinking coconut or other electrolyte-infused water<\/li>\n<li>Incorporating foods with high water content into your diet<\/li>\n<li>Blending smoothies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1905\" src=\"https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/CB-waterdrinking-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"Blonde woman drinks water in the gym locker.

It may be difficult to exercise while you\u2019re just starting out on the keto diet, so make sure to start slow by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stretching<\/li>\n<li>Taking a brisk walk<\/li>\n<li>Practicing yoga<\/li>\n<li>Cycling<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Most importantly, don\u2019t settle into a sedentary lifestyle \u2013 get your body moving, even if it\u2019s just going around the block each day; the impact it will have on your overall health and well-being may surprise you.<\/p>\n<h3>Consider keto-friendly supplements<\/h3>\n<p>If it\u2019s difficult to get dietary fiber from food, consider fiber supplements. <a href=\"https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/\">ColonBroom<\/a> is an excellent choice to increase fiber intake for those on keto. It\u2019s formulated with <a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/ajcn\/article\/116\/4\/953\/6639855\">psyllium husk<\/a>, which has been shown to help regulate bowel movements and is keto-friendly.<\/p>\n<p>Another great option for a healthy gut is a probiotic supplement. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/conditions\/probiotics\/\">Probiotics<\/a> are beneficial gut bacteria that promote gut health and healthy bowel movements. You can also find them in a variety of fermented foods, such as kefir, yogurt, and pickles.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, consider adding some prebiotic fiber into the mix to nourish the good gut bacteria.<\/p>\n<p>Before making a purchase, make sure that your chosen fiber supplement is keto-friendly, meaning it doesn\u2019t contain any added sugars or other sources of carbohydrates.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"cta-shortcode__wrap\">\n    <section class=\"cta-shortcode\">\n\n        <div class=\"cta-shortcode__left\">\n                            <h3>Take a 1-minute quiz<\/h3>\n                                        <h5>And discover ways ColonBroom can help improve your gut health<\/h5>\n            \n            <a class=\"btn\" href=\"https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/quiz\">take a quiz<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n\n        <div class=\"cta-shortcode__right\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/08\/CTA-banner-WEB.png\" alt=\"\">\n        <\/div>\n\n    <\/section>\n<\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"other_healthy_choices_to_make_while_constipated\"><\/span>Other Healthy Choices to Make While Constipated<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When on keto, you will spend a lot of time identifying what foods are keto-friendly and what foods are not.

There are a number of reasons for this, but processed foods have little to no nutritional value, lack dietary fiber, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nia.nih.gov\/health\/concerned-about-constipation\">may lead to constipation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few tips to make transitioning to whole foods easier:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prepare your meals at home<\/li>\n<li>Start meal planning<\/li>\n<li>Opt for fresh produce<\/li>\n<li>Ditch sugary drinks<\/li>\n<li>Stick to your grocery list<\/li>\n<li>Make healthy snacks at home<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Eliminating heavily processed foods from your diet may help relieve constipation and increase stool frequency.<\/p>\n<h3>Reducing dairy consumption<\/h3>\n<p>Milk and dairy products are a popular choice among those following the keto lifestyle. They contain little to no carbohydrates and are high in fats, making them perfect for the keto diet.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, consuming too much dairy can have a few side effects, constipation being one of them, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC9105309\/\">especially among those who are lactose-sensitive<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few ways you can reduce your dairy consumption:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Explore milk substitutes such as almond milk, soy milk, and oat milk<\/li>\n<li>Try dairy-free yogurt<\/li>\n<li>Swap out cheese for tofu<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1907\" src=\"https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/healthy-avocado-fats01-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"Fresh avocado in the pink bowl on the table.

However, their part in your health is just as important as it is for protein and carbohydrates. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uclahealth.org\/news\/eating-healthy-fats-has-many-benefits\">Healthy fats support a healthy gut<\/a> \u2013 they play an important part in maintaining the lining of the gut in top shape.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, fats are the cornerstone of the ketogenic diet, and there are a variety of healthy fats to choose from. Some keto-friendly sources of these fats include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Avocado<\/li>\n<li>Olives and olive oil<\/li>\n<li>Coconuts and coconut oil<\/li>\n<li>Nuts and seeds<\/li>\n<li>Fatty fish<\/li>\n<li>Whole eggs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Aside from incorporating more fat into your diet, you should also limit saturated fat intake, which can be found in bacon, sausages, and other processed foods.<\/p>\n<h3>Balancing carb intake<\/h3>\n<p>The keto diet is a low carb diet that usually limits your carbohydrate intake to just 50g of carbs per day, meaning if you go over this limit, your body will probably be kicked out of the ketosis that you worked so hard for.<\/p>\n<p>This can be difficult on the body as you start out on the diet. Ideally, you should start eating less and less carbs as preparation before diving into keto.<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1903\" src=\"https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/AdobeStock_205179626-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"rubber flamingos in the pool\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/AdobeStock_205179626-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/AdobeStock_205179626-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/AdobeStock_205179626-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/AdobeStock_205179626-667x350.jpg 667w, https:\/\/colonbroom.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/09\/AdobeStock_205179626.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"keto_and_traveling_managing_keto_constipation_on_the_road\"><\/span>Keto and Traveling: Managing Keto Constipation on the Road<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Traveling is difficult enough as it is.
