Overview
The Egyptian Ebers papyrus, from 16th century BC is the first book that presented a basic description for constipation. Ebers papyrus defined constipation as intoxication of body with hazardous agents from feces in bowels. In early 1900s, all-bran products were first introduced to prevent and treat auto-intoxicated patients due to constipation. In 1970s and 1980s, Denis Burkitt, an English surgeon, claimed the hypothesis about dietary fibers followed by the definition of "The Commonest Western disease".
