Paheli should include whole grains, whole pulses, fresh fruits and vegetables in her diet to get rid of her problems. These food items contain roughage (dietary fiber) which is lacking in Paheli&rsquo;s diet.
Paheli should avoid eating biscuits, noodles and white bread as they are made up of refined flour (Maida) which does not contain any roughage or fiber. Roughage prevents constipation.
