Abstract

Background: This review examined factors contributing to gastrointestinal health behaviors using the COM-B (capability, opportunity, motivation) model. Methods: Five electronic databases (PubMed, Medline, Cochrane, Web of Science, CINAHL) were searched following PRISMA guidelines, extracting the data and applying the inductive deductive method to map the impact factors to the COM-B model. Results: The COM-B model identified 20 influencing factors mapped to five subcomponents: psychological capability, physical opportunity, social opportunity, reflective motivation, and automatic motivation. Conclusions: Enhancing gastrointestinal health entails considering personal, societal, and environmental considerations.
