What do your poops say about you? This may sound like a joke, but you can actually learn a lot about your health from your daily doo.
In this video, I’ll give you the full scoop… on what is and isn’t a good poop.
Has your doctor ever asked you about your poop? Did your parents tell you what to look for? Didn't think so. But Mama Natural is going there.
Hippocrates says that all disease begins in the gut. SO we wanna be sure that what’s coming out of the gut looks good.
There are three main things to look for
1 Frequency
2 Form
3 Color
I’ll cover them all here.
1. Frequency
It's best to have at least one complete bowel movement a day. You should feel like your bowels have emptied rather than just partially eliminated.
Some people go 2-3 times a day. This can be because of faster metabolisms, more robust good bacteria, or the quantity of food they eat.
If you are eliminating more than 3 times a day, you are entering into the world of diarrhea which I will address next.
Some people will say if you go every couple of days it's fine, but I disagree. This one of our body's greatest ways to eliminate toxins, acids and other stuff, so it's best to do daily.
2. Form
This is important, and it isn't talked about often.
We want to be sure our poops are well formed. This ensures we've digested and assimilated the nutrients from our food, and are eliminating acids and toxins properly.
Watch the video for a handy reference called the Bristol chart.
Type 1: Separate hard lumps, like little balls (hard to pass)
Type 2: Sausage-shaped, but lumpy
Type 3: Like a sausage but with cracks on its surface
Type 4: Like a sausage or snake, smooth and soft
Type 5: Soft blobs with clear cut edges (passed easily)
Type 6: Fluffy pieces with ragged edges, a mushy stool
Type 7: Watery, no solid pieces. Entirely liquid
Can you guess where you want to be on the chart?
If you said #4, you’re right!

Now that you know what a good poop looks like, let’s talk about HOW to have a good poop. Click here to view my my companion video: • How to Have A Great Poop

It’s 3am in the morning and I’m watching this after poop session 🤣😂
Perfect!! Lol.
me too omh
Same
me at 1:30am😂
It's 5 am for me lol
5 years after posting this(and the companion video) and you’re still helping people, especially me!! I’m trying to talk with my kids about this so they grow up knowing what is or is not healthy. I’m 38 and I’m still trying to get away from severe type 1 and more than 1x a week. I really do not want my kids to suffer the way I have my entire life.
I am so glad watching this video has helped you and your kids!! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your video.
Turns out I didn't tell my Dr. about my severe constipation, which I had for
10 years.
When I told my Dr. she saw I had abdominal distentenion.
She immediately sent me for a scan.
I went to the G.I.Dr. and was sent to the E.R.
My intestine was twisted.
I underwent bowel resection.
Thank God for the Dr's .
I hope the readers take care so this never happens.
Thank God I didn't need a colostomy bag.
Oh no! That sounds terrible 😩 it’s so hard when things escalate like that!
@@mamanatural Thank you
Who’s watching this while pooping or after pooping?
Yo here
Me 🤣
Brah
😂🙋🏾♀️
Yeah me. Gotta pause until the thing comes outta me
This was actually great, very informative & to the point. New sub.
So glad it was helpful!! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this information 🙏 😊
You're welcome!
Thanks for some very interesting information!
You bet!
You are the best! Thanks for the information.
Happy to help!
Thanks for the poop insights
You’re so welcome!
My poo is inconsistent daily
One minute it’s sausage
Then it’s runny
Then it’s mushy & sticky
Then it’s in small pieces
Light brown
Dark brown
Even darker brown
Light almost yellow
Broken cracked sausages
It’s an adventure I’ll tell you that
Could you go into more detail please ?
@@weementaldavy5987 🤣
😳 ahh
😄😄😄😄
It’s like a poem 💩💩💩😂😂
Thank you for the info. The advice on getting one’s thyroid checked in regards to “poop” was an 👁opener for me.
You're so welcome! So glad this video helped!
can you not say anything about this any more?
Wow this is good to know as im type 4 , and i was worried it was too smooth , but i geusse that means everything has digested well. plus hardly need any toilet paper when i wipe. sometimes mine is type 5 if ive had lots of alcohol the night before , and sometimes type 3 if ive had foods that are harder to digest . i hope this is normal
i love this informational video :)
♥️♥️♥️
i needed this i use to work out and poop every morning on the dot. then i found my self drinking a lot and well lets just say im like 5 and 6 . horrible . i will do Brat.and beets . and greens and tea and probably yogurt and maybe a supplement and see how it goes. i will do my shopping after work tomorrow. thanks for the video 😅
Thanks Doc
What if you do line up with type 4, for the most part, but you have noticed that it's flatter. NOT COMPLETELY FLAT. There's still substance and depth to it....and nothing pencil thin. Just flatter to an extent. I have been on pantoprazole for heartburn and I've read this can change the form of your poop, perhaps. I do have a gastro MD appointment soon, but wondered if you have any thoughts. I hate thinking that a flattening is something horrible. I've heard it can be for some people, but I know irritable bowel syndrome can also do it. What are your thoughts? Thanks so much
Since we aren't doctors here at MamaNatural, it's really impossible for us to give advice or input on something so specific. So glad you have an appointment with your gastro MD soon! I hope they are able to get you the answers you're looking for!
I’ve literally never pooped type 4 lol. Just 1, 2 and 3 and the diarrhea.
Diarrhea is pooping but it’s faster
LOVE that this video helped you become more self aware of your own body!
doesn't love the video enough for anybody to share it for more reach, despite her channel being like 300% bigger than mine LOL, its insane that somebody would claim a video from 4 years ago......
@@RyanREAX So, because you didn’t get caught right away, then you should be allowed to take other peoples work as your own w/zero responsibility for your plagiarism? Posting and (possibly) making money off of someone else’s work is not acceptable, period. It’s irrelevant how long it took to “catch you”. If you wanted to “spread” the helpful info you could have just shared the original video but, being that it seems that profit may have been your main goal, you uploaded it as your own and now (with this comment) you are attempting to make the creator into the “bad guy” when it’s actually you who is in the wrong.
@@nicholewojtanowski43 nah, not entirely... my channel isn't monetized... i already uploaded it again just with a different pitch and mirror/flipped... and i have it cloned on like 9 different channels, along with about 25 more references to this channel just to really tick em off.
1 honeycrisp apple at lunch (or 1 1/2 granny Smiths) always made for a good regular poop when I got home from work.
Perfect! 🤣
I've been sick for the past several weeks now since the year started... My poops used to range from 2,3,4, abd that was about a little over a month ago... and all of a sudden a little over a month has passed and my poops are all looking like 5, 6 and watery like number 7... But it's mainly 6...
I need help!! I've been to the doctor four times already in the past few weeks, and have done a stool analysis test to see if it was parasites... but the test showed no White Blood Cells in my stool, so I guess that means no parasites...
But something is not right... I've lost 20Ibs over the past several weeks being at 160Ibs, and now I'm down to 140Ibs/139Ibs...
I have to sign up for Medi-Cal to because while I've been to a local hospital over the past few weeks I don't have a primary care doctor.
When I was 15 I started having bad diarrhea and for 3 years it was very painful cramps etc. but never told anyone I'm 33 now and still have this issue now just not as much pain I'm used to it I guess I have between 5 and 7 and I have maybe 4 solid bowel movements a year just hard to talk about with doc or anyone
I'm
Wow! Could be IBS...Irritable Bowel Syndrome...see a doctor and get on the right track to gut health!!! You will be happier and healthier!!!God bless!
There's no reason for you to deal with this alone! Talk to your doctor about it. There ARE solutions!
@@deegee1119 Is it possible to have irritable bowel syndrome WITHOUT diarrhea or constipation? Like, you go to the bathroom regularly, but the stomach upset is there
Get a cork …
After i add lots of yoghurt and kefir into my diet. my poop changed color to yellow. Used to be brownish
Do you think I should eliminate yoghurt and kefir from my diet?
But I think I feel quit good after my diet change, I sleep now better.
thanks
Yogurt and kefir can only help balance healthy gut bacteria, so it may just be that your body is adjusting to the increase in healthy gut flora!
OMG THX CHU SOO MUCH I NEEDED DIS note: I've had type 1234..5? And 7...yeahh I needed help!
Hug and kiss you and your team are done you can
Hi there
I mean I’ve had all of them 🤣
Doing a gluten & dairy elimination diet helped me a ton
Magnesium also helped
Is it normal that my stool is lately too big to be flushed? Normaly I didn't had so big poops, they are a bit longer and slightly volumoser in diameter, shape is something like Nr.3 and colour is ok, I go once a day , but the size is unsettling.
Usually since have irritable bowel syndrom I either get Diariaha or have little terds or floarting different shaped messy poop usually is light brown or tan or dark brown but live in the poverty level for food.
“ laughs nervously “ I
ha- i have diarrhea ;-;
Same
For me it's normal to have type 1 or 2.
When I have type 4 it's so fast that it feels like diarheea.
I once had an accident pooping in my jeans.
Luckily I was at home at the time. At that time I was ill. That time I pooped type 5 from the stool chart.
Thank you!!!!!
You're welcome!
Thank you
You're very, very welcome!
Very interesting. Stuff a person needs to know
Absolutely!
Everybody is gangster in the comments section until it comes to video about 💩 🤣
Yay ! My favorite topic ! 💩💩
Bahaha one of ours too!
As long as you do it 3x a week, you're actually good.
Daily is really optimal but three times per week is definitely better than nothing!
What is you experience all of these through out the week / fortnight? ( I do go every morning though)
I dump 3 times a day on a bad day i go twice, i dont eat much but i eat organic
How about Metamucil fiber thins or the powder to make you more regular?
You can definitely try this!
My 7 year old found this video and now we're watching it together lol
That’s awesome! Haha
Oh man, honestly, I'm all over the map.
😬😬😬
Same!
What does it mean when I am unable to make it to the restroom
My mom is like that idk
Sounds like something you need to bring up with your doctor!
Get a cork .
Have any tips? I'm extremely constipated and it hurts so bad that I cry. They only was I'm able to get rid of hard stool is to force it out or pull it out
Goodness 😞 high fiber, hydration and a magnesium supplement may help but if it’s that severe it sounds like you may need to see a doctor!
Magnesium Citrate Walgreens, Dye Free
I've been scooping for years please hear me when I say turmeric apple cider water water every day within 8 to 10 days you'll see a difference
Excellent tutorial. Thank You. Feet and digestion are the keys to a happy, healthy life.🧻🚽
Feet and digestion certainly have a huge impact on overall health!
I just push it and it pops , never stared it down though
Can't hurt to look at least ONCE, lol!
@@mamanatural true
It varies a lot between the types for me 😅
Variation is good!
it is?@@mamanatural i have type 4 very often during the week but i have type 5 also, tho in lower amount (volume). Should i be worried? I have no pain.. thanks for the help !!!
So many views no comments. Y'all scared of talking about poop? I wanna know wtf that type 6 is about.
Yeah me to-
Lmaoo same
Same it’s happened to me like three times shits is literally weird
If you have a lot of bad-smelling stools every day, you are excreting the waste that you ingest. Always a sign to change your diet
What about poop that’s somewhat constipated with what looks like mucus or slushing off skin around it?
The forbidden shit
@@PIKL_Creep lmao
Do u know a way to soften bowel movement..? I don’t wanna go to the bathroom and poop knowing its gonna hurt
Hydration, high fiber foods, and magnesium can all help!
It's 3:55 A.M. and I'm sitting on the toilet watching this I'm scared and afraid...!!!!
No need to be afraid!! The purpose of this video is to help you become more aware of your body and it's functions!
I think I experience all types...except type 4.
I think we all experience all types at one time or another!
what happens if most of my poops are type 5 and 6?
It means you need to see a doctor because you probably have Health problems like lactose intolerant
It’s definitely something to discuss with a doctor!
'EUrRrNnNnnNNNHHHhHhHhhEeEeeeEehHh-' plop *da loo explodes*
THuumbs up if you gotta poop!
Watched another video on here saying stool 4 was bad and could be signs of colon cancer ? Idk what to believe any more 😩
If you have any concerns about your own bowel routine, it’s always a good idea to talk to your doctor!
Can u tell me what this means? (I had diariahh yesterday now today it looks small and thin and mushy,)
I ate two big cans of cashews and OH LORD!!! DONT DO IT PEOPLE! DON'T DO IT!!!
😬😬😬
Surely a lot of this depends on what you have recently eaten.
I was just searching to find out what to eat when sick
I hope you start feeling better very soon!
4:28 that’s what I have
Glad this video helped you become more aware of your bodily functions!!
My regular 2 But I’m lactose intolerant so when I digest lactose it looks like six and seven
😬😬😬
I have severe gut issues ,,,,in severe cases anti depressants will help tremendously wt diet,,,,,,very much ......add this please,,,,will save slot of people, and gut brain balance,,,,,,enuff said
While this is certainly true for some people, since we aren't a medical advice channel, we can't really speak on the topic of prescription medications to treat certain things. So glad you've found what works for you!
It doesn't actually say anything, but it sure stinks!
I poop which is soft with little smell, normal color but i do pass gases and get sometimes bloated,
I do alo feel sleepy often
Answer plz
Sounds like a possible nutritional issue. Dairy can often cause gas, bloating, and fatigue!
been constipated for 5 days and able to poop yesterday and today and mine was in between type 4 and 3 im so confused
See what happens tomorrow! Sometimes our bodies can get out of alignment and have a few weird days.
Best thing for this. McDonald's or Taco Bell.
I'm mostly type 6 but I also can get types 2 to 1.
So glad this video made you more self aware of your bodily functions!
ekhyyyy
Psyllium Husk solved all poop problems
That’s definitely one way to help!!
I can say the same thing Elvin. Works for me!
is it possible to be 6 and constipated?
Absolutely!
me most of the time . how frustrating
I'm proud of myself. I got type 4 🤣
Good for YOU! 🤣
Here I thought something was wrong because it wasn't #3 LOL
@@mamanatural 😍
My poop is type 4 but flat...its been going on for a year...about 2 x a week i get a pain in the center of my stomach as if i need to pass gas but can't...not sure whats going on...i have had diverticulitis about twice a year
How about your sleep?
@@dav7490 normal as can be..never an issue
@@pault2178 ok
Sometimes 1 or normal but I'm always eating alot of fruit like apples oranges and pears so why the hell would I get number 1😢😢
Is it normal when u poop it hurts? And it came out watery
That doesn't sound normal no. If it continues I'd suggest seeing your doctor!
8.2 million views but 5 comments😂
Yea lol
Toast + Apple sauce-
It sounds good..
It IS!
What about yogurt???
I have type 1 and 5
Cool
Reminds me of that day when my friend got these ripoff fruit loops that tasted horrible and gave her slimy liquid green poop
And then when she stopped eating the ripoff fruit loops (fruity whirls) her poop was back to normal
Ik she gave me TMI but it was truth or dare soo :/
😲😲😲
slowly putting the peanut butter down .... alright. no coffee.. dang.. tea it is
Poop number 6 definitely looks like it’s been through some…u know lol
😬😬😬
Watching this at 3 AM after having a life changing poop
4:16 she’s lucky she didn’t say that during non movement Lmao
Bahahahaha #truth!
Clay ?
I poo 2 to 3 times a day and i am in and out no long stays is that normal
Everyone has a different pattern, this may your norm-but if you’re concerned, you can always check with your doctor!
i had snake poop today so im healthy lol
😅
thank you i have did all of these
You're welcome! So glad the video helped you become more familiar with your body!
It's 6:21 P.M. and I'm trying to get it over with but I can't!!!!! I'm sitting on the toilet!!!
Sounds like perfect timing!
Mira-lax
Should a good poop float or sink?
Its like Tinder for Mister Hankey...
Bahahahah!
How does diverticulosis enter into this discussion?
This is so gross but also so fascinating
😬😬😬
I just got type 5 LMAO
LOL!
I find it hard to believe that she poops at all
😅
i lowkey have all type 4’s
I don’t know much about them my poops other they have very strong odor I have about 3 large logs a week I’ll guess type 2 because they’re hard to pass, thick and hard, that require me to flush multiple times to get them down, my toilets are all black so I can’t ever see them
Letting your doctor know about this if you’re concerned is never a bad idea!
Rock shape
😬😬😬
I went 1 and a half months with out pooping
😳😳😳
That sounds terrible!
It’s 7:32 P.M. on the toilet.. Just finished eating stuff Crust Pizza!!! I can do it I’m not struggling..😢😢😢😢
