Disordered eating and certain foods linked to higher risk for urinary incontinence in middle-aged women

According to a recent study conducted at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, eating behavior is associated with symptoms of pelvic floor disorders in middle-aged women. For example, higher consumption of highly processed ready-made foods and fast food increased the risk of experiencing symptoms of stress and urgency urinary incontinence. Higher consumption of fruits and an overall higher quality diet decreased the risk for stress urinary incontinence.
