Sakshi is slightly overweight. In order to reduce some weight, she decided to drink more juice and eat very less solid food. When she informed Mala about her decision, she became worried about Sakshi. What could be the reason behind Mala's worry?
Sakshi may suffer from constipation.
The diet which Sakshi has decided to take contains less roughage. Though roughage is not a nutrient in our food, it is an important component of food. This adds bulk to our food which helps our body to get rid of undigested food. Hence if the amount of roughage is less in somebody's diet, he/she may suffer from constipation.
