Prepare to transform your gut health knowledge as we navigate the sometimes "colorful" details and scientific facts all about bowel movements.

She is an expert in inflammatory bowel disease, among many other extraordinary contributions in the field of gastroenterology and medicine.

With valuable insights from our guest, we cover it all in this episode. From discussing how the hues in your loo can reveal the state of your health to the details of the proper pooping position, we're taking a somewhat embarrassing topic to an informed next level. Dr. Kinnucan breaks down the facts on diet's impact on digestion, the role of stress on your pooping habits, and how to keep your "exit strategy" going strong!
