It's
all about keeping unnecessary pressure off your abdomen.
Eat lots of high-fibre foods to keep things
moving as they should. Bump up your brown rice, wholemeal bread, vegetable and
fruit intake, and minimise the things that bind you up, especially refined and
processed foods like cakes and biscuits.
Drink plenty of fluids, especially water and
fruit juices. But cut back on the coffee and alcohol – they can dehydrate you,
and next thing you know, you're constipated and straining on the loo.
Take
regular light exercise – walking and swimming are great piles-fighters.
It may sound silly, but go to the toilet
whenever you need to. Shy at work? Get over it! The alternative is much less
pleasant.
