Bowel movements: How often is healthy?
| Wed, 06-29-2005 - 2:35am |
hey guys!
quick question here:
How often is it neccessary to have a bowel movement? I have read differnt articles that argue the importance of having one every day, saying it maycan vary from person to person. (ie some people may have one 2-3/day, versus some people having one every 3 days.)
Though, i have had, anything less than every 3 days, is not good at all and can cause further constipation problems. That one is obvious.
What do u guys think/know of? This is something ive always racked my brain with. lol
cheers :)
