While dwelling on your stools may seem surprising, it actually allows you to take the necessary steps to regain optimal digestive comfort because they are a real indicator of health. Stools are the residue of our digestion, and depending on their color, their appearance and their frequency of evacuation, it is possible to know if we digest poorly, if the liver functions with difficulty, if we eat too much fat, not enough fiber, if you don't drink enough, etc. There is a good diagnostic tool to find out about the state of your intestines and the composition of your diet. This is the Bristol scale, which lists the different aspects that your stools can take. The infographic in the link below is inspired by this:
Whether to promote optimal intestinal comfort, or to nourish your intestines, focusing on the proper functioning of your intestinal transit is essential!
To do this, a few dietary rules are necessary:
- A healthy diet should be as raw as possible. What does that mean ? Currently, because of the widespread industrialization of our food, we find more and more pesticides, endocrine disruptors, toxins in our food, and fewer and fewer good quality nutrients. By freeing yourself from ultra-processed foods and reconnecting with raw foods, you considerably increase your intake of micronutrients beneficial to the body, and you avoid overloading your liver with toxins.
- Fiber and fluid intake should not be neglected. Indeed, these two factors strongly influence intestinal transit and the composition of stools. The fibers, not digested by the body, have the particularity of swelling on contact with water. Thus, stools are more hydrated and bulky when you consume enough, which speeds up transit, limits stomach aches and gives a better appearance to the stools. Recommendations are 25-30 g per day for fiber and 1.5-2 L of water per day for water.
- Not all fats are equal! The fats that are least beneficial to our body are the most difficult to digest, they can slow down transit and cause discomfort. Be careful with trans fats and saturated fatty acids, the consumption of which must be monitored.
