    i poop in the morning usually twice and once at night, the rest all depends on what i ate, if pork based, poop over and over lol

    Is this a serious question? you don't have a choice, the body does it of it's own accord whether you allow it or not.

    Sure it's bad for you if you wanna die. If not you need to poop atleast once a day, the processed food has to go somewhere :)
    if you don't you are constipated or have bowel issues or arent eating anything.

    Pooping is great for you! As long as you don't have diarrhea (lost of electrolites and dehydration). The cleaner your system the more you poop. Check out babies, they poop almost immediately after eating (clean system). Pooping is our body's way of ridding itself of waste and toxins. A backed up system may reabsorb the toxins. Hope this helps.
    That's correct.
    We were once all babies, and yes they poop after eating. You should be eliminating after each meal you consume, so we should be going 2-3 times a day.

    Then there's people who over the years have started to slow down and go once a day, or once every 3-5 days, and think it's normal because "they finally go". They think they've cleaned out their system for the last 3 days. (all 9+ meals have instantly emptied out)

    Meanwhile for 3 days, your piping has been backed up, your intestines start to stretch to hold the backlog of waste.
    Once your large intestine is full, then your small intestines get backed up, bacteria start to multiply and set up shop, and your body starts reabsorbing the toxins - Auto-intoxification.

    as a life long sufferer of IBS, don't knock the poop chute :) it can be a saviour and your worst enemy

    less then once a day is not normal, you should be going atleast once a day otherwise there is something wrong and you should be seeking medical attention. The longest i've gone is 3 days and that wasn't by choice i had a bowel obstruction and it was pure agony was only passing small amounts of liquids was very sick as a result.

    No, less than once a day is NOT abnormal! Some people go less often. The important thing to remember is if someone starts going less or more often for THEM. That is a call to the doctor.

    But, and just curious here, the OP must be joking.... Who would doubt if pooping is good for you? I don't get it.

    Everyone should be consuming enough water and fiber to go at least once a day, preferably twice.

    food should get through you in 24 hours, so you should poop 3 times a day, for meals not snacks, according to what i saw on dr. oz. he said to eat healthy lots of veggies and then itll just shoot through you. haha.

    Oh look, a trip down Memory Lane when people still thought Dr. Oz was a serious clinician...........oh wait.

    Yeah...I remember my first time getting drunk and playing internets. Nice 3 year old thread to resurrect. You must have had to do a search for poop. How clever of you.
