Your daily bowel movement offers vital clues about your digestive health, according to Dr. Saurabh Sethi. Pebble-like or firm stools may signal constipation, while soft blobs suggest low fiber. Watery poop indicates diarrhea. Ideally, healthy stool is smooth and sausage-shaped, reflecting a balanced gut. Prioritizing fiber, hydration, and exercise is key.
