Poop Patterns as well as Holistic health: What’s the Connection?

Is there a connection between your poop patterns and vitality? Do you struggle with constipation or diarrhea? How is your poop pattern linked to your overall organ holistic health? On a recent episode of Causes or Cures, I chatted with Dr. Johannes P. Johnson-Martínez about his recentresearchon how variations in bowel movement frequency (BMF) can impact the gut microbiome, blood metabolites, and overall organ physical wellness. We discussed how abnormal BMF patterns are linked to toxins produced by gut microbes that enter the bloodstream and increase inflammatory response levels and how abnormal BMFs may be early warning signs of organ dysfunction. (This is vital, because an “early warning sign” can tip you off, keep a disease from progressing and even save your life.) Finally, Dr. Johannes highlights how food regimen and healthy living choices can influence BMF variations and the larger mind-body health implications and “take-home” points of this research. Dr. Johnson-Martinez is a researcher interested in the gut microbiome who conducted this research in the Department of Bioengineering, University of Washington.
