As naturopaths we love to talk about to poo/poop/stools/bowel movements. It’s a fundamental part of the job! And that’s because they are an excellent daily report card for our digestive and gastrointestinal health - which has important ramifications for our overall health and wellbeing.

When stools deviate from ‘normal’ they are telling us that our digestive and gastrointestinal tract is not operating optimally and, in some cases, can be a sign of more serious conditions.
