I poop a lot, everyday sometimes twice a day...is it unhealthy ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: The frequency of ones bowel movements varies from person to person. For some , multiple movements a day is normal, for some one movement every few days is normal. If your stools are normal than it is probably due to your diet and the things you eat and drink. If you have abnormal stools, i would recommend seeing your doctor.
