Primary

MeasureTime frame
The present study is expected to reduce the frequency of patients classified as constipated, as verified by the criterion Rome IV, based on a reduction of at least 5% in this frequency.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
A stool consistency reduction, as measured by the Bristol scale, is expected to be reduced by two ordinal points in stool consistency.;The improvement in constipation, reported in the primary outcome, is expected to modify body composition by reducing the percentage of fat, evaluated by the four-way electric bioimpedance method, with a reduction of approximately 5 percentage points of body fat.
