it's a struggle if you feel like you can't completely empty um if you have this sense of like gosh i did all that work and when that little thing came out like those to me are signs that we have an issue and if you're not adequately evacuating your bowels then the number one symptom that we're going to see drew is bloating gas and bloating And this is widely prevalent.

There are a bazillion people I'm quite sure listening to the podcast right now, who this is something that they've experienced. It's like the routine presence of gas and bloating. And I'm here to tell you, I'm here to tell you that this is very closely tied to your bowel movements. That if you are backing up, that is the cause of your gas and bloating.

And if we can get things moving through, then we can relieve that issue and you'll feel better. And fiber is one of the ways potentially that we could get that working.

let's talk about coffee first yeah so i i coffee clearly helps people poop the vast majority of people when they consume coffee on a routine basis they're going to notice that they um often will have a bowel movement that comes shortly after that and it can be a part of that really healthy daily routine that you build in the morning

um that really gets your day started i mean i honestly believe that having a good uh complete evacuation in the morning is part of stepping into a great day so what is it about coffee there's a couple of things coffee is very rich in polyphenols polyphenols are antioxidant compounds an example would be chlorogenic acid that the research suggests may help us to move our bowels

Coffee, believe it or not, even without adding fiber to it, actually contains some dietary fiber. And so this is soluble fiber. The soluble fiber is not grit. You would never know that it's there, but it is fiber and it is feeding your gut microbiome. And so that's one of the other things that potentially helps. Now, I will say there are some people that coffee just is not a great fit.

And so there's about 10% of the population that will drink a cup of coffee and it will actually trigger urgent bowel movements. With those people, I would consider adding a fiber supplement to your daily coffee, which by the way, I kind of recommend this for everyone. I do this myself. I did it this morning.
