Short Wave · The red flags that may be hiding in your poop · 7 Aug 2026 podcast

If you were to say my poop is a little yellow and I've been doing this keto diet for the last two, three weeks, then I might say, you know what, maybe that's okay.

All that fat.

Yeah, exactly.

There's another color that is an emergency, which is white.

White poop or grayish pale clay colored poop, that is actually the natural color of our poop without Billirubin.

Bilirubin is this digestive enzyme that we produce on our own.

That's what gives it the brown color, the bile salts in this in this juice called bilirubin.

But if you have a gallstone potentially, if you have a cancer potentially, or something else obstructing that bilirubin, your poop can turn white.

So that is an emergency, no matter what.

Yeah.

This is like one of the biggest life hacks, I feel like, for people, especially relevant on dates, like relevant when you're meeting the in-laws for the first time, whatever the situation might be that you've deemed high risk.

You can take peptobismol beforehand.

So it's the sulfur gas that gives farts their smell.

And bismate subsilicylate, which is the compound that is in peptobismol, that actually really, really effectively binds those sulfur-producing gases.

And so you'll be able to kind of neutralize that sulfur.

Now

You probably shouldn't take it for days and days and days on end, especially if you're taking something like aspirin at the same time.

But for just like a couple day trip, like or even just one night, totally safe to do.

Yeah.

But be forewarned that you there will be a change.
