If we eat three meals a day, why do we poop only once?
If we eat three meals a day, why do we poop only once?
How does it work that we eat few times a day, but usually we poop only once?
Is the colon somehow programmed to buffer the waste until the time is up and then dumps it all further?
Got this thought when observing my dog who eats twice a day (morning and evening) and more or less poops twice a day (morning and evening).

How much you poop is going to vary based both on your body and your diet. Ive read anywhere from 3 times a day to once every 3 days can be normal.

Id agree. Swapped all my carbs to higher fiber carbs a bit ago and I'm still upset when I have to shit twice a day, I could be happily wasting that time instead of having to shit again.

This 2-4 times a day means you have a healthy digestive track. Anything less than once a day is cause for concern.
