2.

A. Lots of fast food – the greasier the better!

B. Lots of cakes and cookies – I love them!

C. I eat on the run and just grab what I can when I can

All three answers are right. Eating poorly can lead to constipation, one of the major factors that leads to hemorrhoids.

3. I exercise

A. Never

B. When I feel like it – maybe once per week

C. What’s exercise?

All three answers are right. Lack of exercise definitely isn’t going to help you get rid of hemorrhoids!

So what can you do? How about eating a healthy high fiber diet rich in fresh fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Ditch the soda and drink plenty of plain water instead, to help you digest all that added fiber. Swap white bread for wholemeal or whole grain bread.

Start taking regular exercise, even if it’s only a 20 minute walk four times per week. Regular exercise will help a sluggish system and give you a healthy glow.

So now you know what some of the causes of hemorrhoids are. I hope you enjoyed taking this quiz.
