The Bristol Stool Chart and You

[MNHighwayMan]

Human poo can be qualitatively ranked on a scale known as the Bristol Stool Chart. It was developed at the Bristol Royal Infirmary in the UK during the 90s.



Types 3 and 4 are considered healthy, while type 5 is okay but indicating a lack of fiber. Constipation is indicated by types 1 and 2 and diarrhea by types 6 and 7.

What's your favorite type? How did your last poo rank?

Mine was a perfect type 4.

I voted, but you asked two separate questions.

I did. The second question was meant to be answered in a reply. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

My poo experience is more often defined by how well the toilet paper did...

Why on Earth is this a thread?


Well, whatever the reason may be, I'm not too surprised it is one. My favorite is whatever one requires the least wiping, I already have IBS and using the bathroom is enough of a chore.
