Episode 22: What Your Poo Says About Your Gut Health with Rachel Larsson
Ever stared down at the toilet bowl and thought… “Is that normal?” If so, this episode is for you.
Today, I’m taking you on a deep dive (pun intended) into one of the most underrated yet powerful tools for understanding your gut: your poo. From sticky floaters to rabbit pellets, mucus, blood, and everything in between—we’re covering it all. Because what ends up in the toilet tells you so much more than you think.
Whether you're dealing with constipation, diarrhoea, or just want to understand what a healthy bowel movement actually looks like (hint: it’s not just about going every day), this episode will help you decode the signs your gut is sending.
In this solo episode, I explore:
- What the Bristol Stool Chart can (and can’t) tell you
- The truth about diarrhoea and constipation
- How to tell if your bloating is really due to a motility disorder, food intolerance, or poor fat absorption
- Red flag symptoms you should never ignore
- The most overlooked reasons your stool looks… strange
- My favourite at-home test to assess gut motility
- Why some poos float, some sink, and what that says about your digestion
- When you need a gastroenterologist—and when a pelvic floor physio, naturopath or nutritionist might help more
- Why laxatives and anti-diarrhoeals aren’t the real solution and what to do instead
Your stool is a mirror of your internal health. It’s not something to be ashamed of, it’s something to learn from.
This episode will help you understand what’s normal, what’s not, and what your body might be trying to tell you, so you can stop guessing and start healing.
