Poop and Poo

3/1/2012

One is regarding eliminations one is regarding shampoo.  I have only recently become more interested in how what I eat effects my digestion.  I always knew it was important but never had a good pulse on it.  I challenge you to think about it.  When I went to the balanced bites seminar Diane said we should poop 1 or 2 times a day and they should be good looking poops.  You should not have to run to the bathroom and likewise, you should not have to sit on the toilet for several minutes waiting for it.  I am challenging myself to keep better notes of what I eat and how it effects my eliminations and I challenge you to do the same.  If you can get that in check your health will follow.  If your poop smells real bad and is real dark in color you have too many toxins and probably are eating a lot of processed foods, if it is very light in color and floats there is a lot of undigested fat, it it is large and hard to pass, too much protein, if it is pellet like you are likely dehydrated, if it is diarrhea sto eating whatever you ate, if there is undigested food in it then it may be due to a food intolerance.  Poop should be well formed and light brown and float a little.  Here is a picture made up by Paul Chek.

On to the poo.  I have decided to stop using shampoo for a while.  I have gone in and out on this topic for a few months but am going to give it a shot for a month at least.  So, March is no poo time.  I got the idea from cavegirleats. I will be doing baking soda with some occasional tea tree oil if I have dandruff a few times a week and the apple cider vinegar  rinse a couple times a week as well and eventually try to get to no poo.  I am also limiting the amount I wash my body.  I am switching from dove to dr bonners and will limit to one body wash a day.  If I work out 2 times and need two showers one will just be a rinse.  I'll keep ya posted.
