15 Foods that Cause Constipation

Dairy Products

Kids, toddlers, and infants are at high risk of having constipation after consuming dairy products. This is probably caused by a sensitivity to proteins in cow’s milk. Some studies have shown that stopping drinking cow’s milk would help improve some symptoms of chronic constipation. Thus, people with this condition should avoid some dairy products such as milk, cheese, and more. You would replace cow’s milk with soy milk to get the same health benefits without worrying about constipation and other associated signs. [4]
