The longer you sit there scrolling, the longer you’re putting pressure on the veins around your bum and over time, that can contribute to haemorrhoids.

Aim to sit, poo, wipe, flush and GET OUT.

A sausage 🌭
A banana 🍌
A soft log 🪵

All are the “ideal” when it comes to your p**p.

If it’s consistently outside of this, whether it be pebbly or liquid (or a combination of both), I encourage you to seek guidance from a qualified practitioner to find out why.

Bitter foods and traditional herbal bitters have long been used before meals to prime digestion. This is because we have bitter receptors all through our digestive system and when they are activated, they impact:

→ digestive + metabolic hormones (hello natural GLP-1!!!) and HELLO feeling full and satisfied
→ gut contractions + p**ping 💩
→ digestive enzymes + bile flow

Waking up with low appetite? Bitters
Not having good poos? Bitters
Liver needs support? Bitters
Blood glucose issues? Bitters

The top bitter foods I recommend and eat personally: radicchio, rocket, dandelion greens, chicory (dandy chicory latte w/ honey 😘👌🏼- just ask me), COFFEE, grapefruit, green tea, dark choccy, brussel sprouts, artichoke & radishes.

My approach v a GP and how we differ.

No criticism of GP’s intended by the way. Our public medical system is overburdened, there aren’t enough staff or resources, and most importantly, time to dedicate to things like really comprehensive consultation, blood pathology reviews and microbiome testing. I am a one stop shop and our consults are never in and out in 5 mins.

Welcome to POO PEARLS — a series I’m starting because there’s just so much poo info I want to share with you and these pearls are worthy of big bold letters!

POO PEARL #1
Your poo window 💩

Your poo window, as it is affectionately known, is a short one. It’s a brief window of time where the internal an@l sphincter relaxes, triggered by gas or p**p and lets you know it’s toilet time.

If you ignore this window repeatedly, it is less likely to arrive and your body becomes caught in a cycle of constipation, that feeling of incomplete emptying and often, pelvic floor dysfunction.

Contrary to popular belief, the poo doesn’t reverse in the colon or disappear (😂🫣 I thought this once too). It stays there, where the colon continues pulling water from the waste, making it harder, drier and more difficult to pass.

That’s why responding to the urge when you feel it is so important! It’s about tuning in to your bodies signals, not ignoring them because the timing is inconvenient.

This is your sign to honour your poo window!
