Why would a low-fibre diet be considered a wrong option in constipation?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Fibre usually helps in constipation
Dietary fibre adds bulk, holds water and can help soften stool and stimulate normal bowel movement. Adequate fluid and gradual fibre increase are commonly useful when medically appropriate. The exact advice depends on the cause and on conditions where fibre is restricted, but a routine low-fibre choice is generally unsuitable for constipation. Therefore option A is correct.
