How many times do you poop in a day? Your poop schedule might actually signal something for your body

New research reveals that your pooping frequency is linked to distinct gut microbiome compositions. People with less frequent bowel movements often have a richer, more diverse microbial population. This suggests a continuous feedback loop where stool retention allows bacteria to ferment contents, influencing overall health and potentially impacting disease risks.
