Your Poop is a Window into Your Health—Here’s How to Read It
It may not be a dinner table conversation, but your poop can reveal more about your health than you realize. According to the Cleveland Clinic, the shape, color, and consistency of your stool are important indicators of your digestive well-being. By keeping tabs on these details, you could catch potential health issues before they become bigger problems.
A healthy stool? Think smooth, sausage-shaped, and brown—like Types 3 or 4 on the Bristol Stool Chart. Straining to pass hard, lumpy stools (Types 1 or 2)? You might need more fiber and hydration. Loose, mushy, or watery poop (Types 6 or 7) could point to inflammation, infection, or food sensitivities. Even the color matters—black or pale stool could suggest internal bleeding or liver issues, while green often just means food moved through your gut a little too quickly.
