Can black coffee cure constipation

Patient's question:

Doctor, I am already 47 years old this year, and my body is still quite good, but I have a long-term problem with constipation. Sometimes, it takes me several days to have a bowel movement, which is very painful. I would like to ask, can black coffee help with constipation?

Doctor's answer:

The most important thing in treating constipation is to maintain good bowel habits and a healthy lifestyle. It is best to have a bowel movement at the same time every morning. In daily life, pay attention to eating more fruits and vegetables, drinking more water, and eating less food that is difficult to digest and spicy. You can also drink some honey water appropriately to moisten the intestines. Black coffee is just a beverage that has the effect of refreshing the mind and does not have much effect on treating constipation.
