Body Stuff with Dr. Jen Gunter

Why are we so awkward about poop?


Listen Later

When most people think about poop, they think about shame and embarrassment. It’s something they don’t want to talk about and that prevents us from learning things—like the number of times a day we should be going number two—that can keep us healthy! On this episode, Dr. Jen tells us why some of the things we’ve been told about poop are a load of crap, what makes the gut the “second brain” of the body, and how what you eat goes from food to feces. By the end, you’ll know everything you need to achieve “poophoria.”  You can read the text transcript for this episode at go.ted.com/BodyStuffTranscript2
