balcony girls wrote:. . saw this on House last night . . here's the scene . .

. . MilkToast guy in the Hospital's Examination Room, with his 20-something Hottie who is a Nutritionist/Vegetarian. House is doing his mandatory rounds thru the ER, and asks his problem.

. ." my girlfriend is worried cause my poop floats ", said dressed all in Cotton Boy.

. .as House is eyeing Hottie-girl, he says " it appears your boyfriend has been cheating on you " . .

:o :o :o

. .he then explains that if your poop floats, that means there are large amounts of fat in it . . as in, animal fat . . . so, in Cotton Boy's case . . " must be that animal fat double cheeseburger you've been sneaking " . .

. . :o :o

. . by the end of the conversation, Cotton Boy is all but dumped by Hottie Girl . .and House has her number AND resume . .! !

. . fat poop floats, vege poop doesn't . .

. .thought that was interesting . . and just wanted to share . .

:wink: :D

We are disadvantaged here to know if it floats or not ...

cause out "bowl of water" is only really little and at the bottom of the toilet - its probably only 2 - 4 cups of water in volume - add paper - and you see nothin :lol:

But without going into too many details, thanks to lots of tummy problems, my answer would be a resounding NO. :-?

1) Why are some poops straight while others are more "artistic"?

2) Why does the corn phenonomon exist?
Can't help you on the first one, but I think I can give an answer to number 2 (oh gosh that was bad).

The human body can't digest the kernal of corn. It really just wasn't meant for us as humans to be eaten. Since there is nothing to break down and use in the corn, it passes through the digestive system relatively intact. As the rest of our digested food has nutrients, etc sucked out of it on the way through, it is reduced to what we know as poop. The undigested corn just gets sucked along for the ride.

That is how my 10th grade biology teacher explained it to us anyway. I guess in the same vein, if we were unable to digest rice, when we ate it we would have a rice phenonomon instead of, or to ago along with, the corn.
Sort of.
There are two basic types of fiber, soluble and insoluble.
White bread, regular potatoes without the skin, white rice, etc are soluble.
What most call "ruffage" is insoluble fibre.
The insoluble fiber is important in cleansing the gut.
The soluble is important for adding basic bulk and substance to the poop.
Low insoluble fiber diets have been linked to colon cancer.
Low soluble fiber diets produce less regular and poorly formed poops.

Corn is insoluble fibre, the vitamins are absorbed and the basic structure can be (but not always) pooped out whole.
Other vegetables do the same thing, they just don't stand out as much in color ,size, or form, and are less noticable.
Eat a giant salad of lots of different vegatables, and you just might recognize some other components of your poop.

O.K., the other question.
The substance that leaves your small intestines is not poop yet.
Almost all the nutrients have been absorbed as it enters the large intestine or colon, but it is a liquid mixture with pieces of insoluble fiber mixed in for good measure.
It goes through different cycles there, and as liquid is absorbed it forms into poop.
Depending on the nature of your peristalsis (rythmic contractions of your colon), it can be formed long and snake-like, or fragmented, or in all sorts of other varieties.
People with irritable bowels have irritatingly formed poops.
Good size poops containing both types of fiber are desirable.
Float vs no float day to day is not really an issue.
Continuous floating poop could signal a problem, as that poopdoc link suggests.
