I had NO idea this is what “normal” is… 🤯

If you’re sitting on the toilet for 20-30 minutes and straining - that’s not normal.

Even if you’re going every day.

According to Dr. Trisha Pasricha, a gastroenterologist and professor at Harvard Medical School, bowel movements should take less than 5 minutes.

Ideally less than 1 minute. But so many people don’t have that experience.

Most people are constantly dealing with urgency, accidents, bloating, discomfort, or pain…

In fact, 1 in 7 people poop their pants regularly in America.

So if you see yourself in any of these symptoms, you’re not alone.

This episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast with Dr. Pasricha will help you learn what your body is trying to tell you.
