Smart Choices. Eat more fiber.


Simple Steps.®


Being constipated causes you to strain during bowel movements. This puts pressure on your pelvic muscles and can lead to leaks.


Keep your bowels moving smoothly by getting 21 to 38 grams of fiber a day. Visit HealthyAdvice.com/FiberIdeas to find


out how much you need and to get a list of high-fiber food ideas.


Stop smoking.


Constant coughing from smoking can stress the muscles that hold back urine.


Check out smokefree.gov for tools to quit. Practice healthy urinary habits.


Not emptying your bladder enough can lead to leaks.


Try to urinate every 2 to 3 hours to reduce the pressure in your bladder. Set an alarm on your cell phone to help remind you when it’s time to go.
