Eating yogurt everyday helped me poop better.

[@improvementTime10.3.17]

8:00 pieces of food in poop = digestive enzymes 11:00 can run stool test for what bacterial strains are in your gut 12:10 probiotic strain that kills acne another one from runners allows faster recovery

[@dekz0911]

Thanks a lot!

[@KatEyze1015]

I've always had and have trouble losing weight and my poop always floats with the exception of "lactose intolerant rants" that overcomes me. 🥴😪😂 This video's floating/sinking portion made a lightbulb go off in my brain! I have incorporated different supplements in my daily routine, as well as begun a Keto-type lifestyle and fasting for 10-12 hours for about 3 months now and my poop has been sinking with very few floaters, but today they all sunk, bringing me to this video. I'm losing weight and feel great! I was honestly worried as to why. Thanks for the clarification!

[@Monjagetitonya]

I’ve truly been enjoying making my own yogurt! Lots of strains. Dr William Davis has a great recipe!

[@vijayarya2688]

Thank you all very much

[@ashleyredden325]

Loved this video. More people need too watch

[@OswaldDigestiveClinic]

Look at stool provides great information to help figure out what's going on further up in the GI Tract! One tool to use when piecing together the puzzle. We also use symptom questionnaires at our clinic, and we track outcomes using these since by improving gut health, often all over health improves (i.e. other autoimmune symptoms like headaches, joint aches/pains, etc.)!

[@romeites6398]

So what to eat? Vegetables?

[@OswaldDigestiveClinic]

@@romeites6398 it depends upon what symptoms a person is having. Is there a specific gut issue you’re struggling with?

[@romeites6398]

@Oswald Digestive Clinic Just wanna make poop soft? How? What to eat? I’m asian. I eat rice, vegetables and fish/chicken in one plate.

[@frankfromupstateny3796]

Pooping and one's poop is the single most important things to "suggest one's health or disease". I go too much...and can't hold my bowels very well. Not well....at all. A problem in society,...dating, eating, working, etc.

[@Kellyd2024]

IBS?

[@anon1152]

So. If one's poop is like pellets it probably means that one is not getting enough water or soluble fibre. Not that I might be a rabbit or deer. I am relieved. I mean one. One is relieved. ahem.

[@HeatherandEmber]

Ehat about water fasting

[@Amethyst_Friend]

On the thumbnail I could only see the first three letters of "Health". I was expecting and hoping for: "Does Poop Hold the Secret to Your Heart?"

[@loudouirene57]

If you laugh and cry at the same time,you're probably listening to the perfect speech

[@Brian_STL19]

[@shalomshalom4035]

Look into urine therapy. Check out Martha christy book, also there is a wealth of information on KZbin, if you want I have a lot of documentation on urine therapy. Trust me you won’t be disappointed. Let me know if you want the information.🙌🏻

[@OswaldDigestiveClinic]

I see this was 9 months ago - are you still struggling Leticia? Lots that can be done to help this from a functional nutrition approach!

[@ibrahimdua]

What was the point? Probiotics is the solution to constipation?

[@williamwilliams333]

exactly i thought she was going to tell us what to eat and what to avoid

[@chunqiu7898]

She's the true Queen of poops

[@TommyMVSERVTI]

She’s cute lol

[@HelloooThere]

My farts are glorious

[@TrustedBanterSociety]

Is this the girl who poops in the David’s Bridal Stores?

[@frankfromupstateny3796]

Outstanding video...not at all funny. This is probably how Hippocrates started his career.

[@janicejacome]

I wasn't too impressed with her. It's old news and not enough info for TED, in my humble opinion. But HIPPOCRATES did say "Your stomach is your second brain".
