What Does an Ideal ( good ) Bowel Movement ( Stool ) Look Like?

An ideal bowel movement is medium brown, the color of plain cardboard.

It leaves the body easily with no straining or discomfort.

It should have the consistency of toothpaste, and be approximately 4 to 8 inches long.

Stool should enter the water smoothly and slowly fall once it reaches the water.

There should be little gas or odor.

My comment: Based on my personal experience I fully agree with the above information. Every time I have (quite often) a good Bowel Movement ( Stool ) , I feel rejuvenated and wonderful!
