Everybody poops. But what does a "normal" bowel movement look and feel like? According to gut health experts, the answer isn't so simple. Consistency, odor, ​and frequency are just a few of the many ways to determine if you're pooping properly.

In this episode, gastroenterologist Will Bulsiewicz, MD, and dietitian Brigitte Zeitlin, RD, examine every dirty detail to answer all the questions you've got (but are too shy to ask) about gut health, an essential part of your overall well-being.

HOST: Ella Dove, Sr. Director of Creative Development at Well+Good

GUESTS:

Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, MD, Gastroenterologist 

Brigitte Zeitlin, RD, Dietician 

WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT:

Gastroenterologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz (a.k.a Dr B) talks us through the ins and outs of our bowel movements, from what to look out for, good and bad, and when it might be time to reach out for help from a professional. You can find Dr. B here. 

Brigitte Zeitlin discusses what she tends to see in her work as a dietician, what we can do to improve our bowel movements, and, of course, why it is important for us to talk about poop more than we do. You can find Brigette here.
