Individuals and Method: The study was done with a total of 85 individuals, including women and women, from 19 to 64 years of age, diagnosed with functional constipation, which was applied to the hospital’s gastroenterology clinic. The demographic characteristics of patients with the method of face-to-face conversation (age, level of education, profession, etc.) In the survey form recorded, anthropometric measurements (boy length, body weight, back and back environment measurements) were made, three-day nutritional consumption from patients was recorded. Results: The daily pound intake of individuals participating in the study is an average of 17.9±8.91 g. 71.8 per cent of patients don’t have a daily dose, while 24 per cent don’t. The seventh is enough. The patient’s daily water intake is an average of 1312.9±791.74 ml. The average daily water intake in female patients (1413.6±842.5 mL) is higher than the average in male patients (1084.6±617.5 mL) (p<0.05). When patients’ vitamins and minerals were assessed according to the Diet Reference Rate (DRI) recommendations, it was found that they had insufficient levels of potassium, magnesium, iron and calcium minerals, especially folate, tiamin, niacin, B6 and C vitamins. The result: the daily diet of individuals with constipation is low in diet, water, vitamins and minerals. In the prevention of constipation, with adequate and balanced nutrition, lifestyle changes come to the forefront.
