Children who were not picky eaters ate an average of 120 grams of fruits and vegetables per day, while picky eaters only ate 74 grams of fruits and vegetables per day.

Poor diet is also a common cause of constipation in men. If the diet is small and fine, with little crude fiber food, it takes a long time to form feces, especially if there is a lack of coarse grains and fruits, most of the water is absorbed, so the feces are dry and difficult to excrete.

Due to busy work, business trips, and irregular lifestyles, even if one has the urge to defecate, one forces oneself to hold the urge because the surrounding environment does not allow it. Over time, the rectum becomes less sensitive to the pressure of feces, resulting in a lack of the urge to defecate. This is often one of the most common causes of constipation in patients.
