Abstract in brief

  • Increased consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) is linked to a higher risk of constipation, based on data from nearly 8,000 NHANES participants.
  • The study found a significant positive relationship between SSB intake—measured in grams and kilocalories—and constipation, with the association differing among subgroups and showing a nonlinear pattern.
  • These findings suggest public health efforts should focus on reducing SSB consumption and promoting healthier beverage choices to improve digestive health.
