Artichokes
Hemorrhoids may be treated using artichokes, as used in several traditional medical systems. Artichokes have been used for a long time as a digestive aid to decrease inflammation and, as a result, symptoms of hemorrhoids. These symptoms include bloating, stomach discomfort, and cramping, achieved via the normalization of GI movement.
The fiber in artichokes helps feed the beneficial bacteria in your gut. Raw artichokes of medium size (128 grams) contain around 7 grams of fiber, making them an excellent source of this valuable nutrient. On the other hand, maintaining a healthy gut and regular bowel movements may help avoid the formation of piles or lessen the severity of its symptoms.
Inulin is a form of soluble fiber that may be found in artichokes. It was discovered in two studies conducted on humans to increase the number of healthy gut bacteria, such as Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli. Both prebiotics and probiotics, found in artichokes, have been proven to have a good influence on the makeup of the gastrointestinal microbiota, leading to enhanced immunity, digestion, and nutritional absorption. The gut’s microflora is essential to prevent the formation of harmful microorganisms.
