Paleo Diet and Paleolithic Diet Questions & Answers

Question

9

I couldn't find a duplicate of this question, so here goes : how often do you guys poop? I don't know if I'm constipated, but I don't poop very often. Normally it's every 2-3 days. I eat 200g fat every day, most of it from coconut and olive oil. I also drink aloe vera juice, eat more than enough fiber (30-35g), drink enough water, ... Am I doing something wrong, or is this totally normal?

It could be the water I'm drinking, it has 200mg calcium/liter...

I'm hesitant to vote anything up on this question. You're supposed to stop getting praise for pooping by the time you're a grown-up. – Stabby Jul 11 2011 at 21:14

Funny how there're so many answers to this question... Poop & sex seem to get our attention! – Efaitch Jul 11 2011 at 21:29

@Efaitch - at the end of the day, is there anything more Paleo than shitting and screwing? – Aravind Jul 11 2011 at 22:02

I am proud to announce I now go once or twice a day. Finally. I've been constipated for something like 14 years. Thank you, gelatin....

"I eat 200g fat every day" - simple arithmetic (200g. x 9) shows that it gets you 1800 kcals a day - which, probably, is your caloric higher limit - so, maybe you're just eating too much?
