The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

Like it's got kind of some water within?

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

Yeah, it's a little like a little bit less formed, a little bit more floaty, a little softer.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

You could still get an A for those two.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

It's when it's like pure liquid or it's just like really frequent that I think we can all agree that's not ideal.

But if there's some shape to it and it's even fluffier than this beautiful sausage, you're still winning.

The Mel Robbins Podcast

I think if it comes out in a few small pieces, that's okay.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

When it comes out in one long piece like that, what it's telling you is that you were able to efficiently expel it and all the muscles in your pelvic floor were moving in this nice coordinated dance to get it out in one try.

But yeah, if it's long like that, it means it didn't have time to sit and collect in your rectum and form this like larger clump.

So it just means it's coming out more quickly, more efficiently.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

It's not a bad thing.

The Mel Robbins Podcast

I mean, your rectum is built to accommodate increased spaces for more poop.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

So that's fine.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

But it means that you caught it at the right time.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

It's passing through.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

You gave it a little push and it all just came right out.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

Now, on the other hand, I'm going to show you another set of models.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

Let me show you the other amazing model that your team put together.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

These are like rabbit pellets on the bottom.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

Yeah.

The Mel Robbins Podcast
The Gut Health Episode: Harvard Doctor Reveals What’s Normal (and What’s Not)

I've almost never met somebody who has one of these, the chunky rabbit pellets, and felt like they had a good poop.
