OT: TMI..I aplogise in advance...poop question :S

[fingers_cross]

I was going to ask on a fb group im on but way to embarrassed so thought id ask u ladies here lol...

I do regular fasts, and have currently just finished one. I break my fast with healthy foods and had my first sandwich today, which was tuna and sweetcorn..so i got the runs and there was sweetcorn in it (so sorry tmi!) and i havent eaten sweetcorn for a very long time, is it possible for food to pas through ur digestive system and out the other end in the matter of an hour??? i guess it would have been nice and clear down there for it all to pass through but still..i didnt know that was even possible??

sorry i know its a very weight question but really want to know the answer!xx

Must be! Lol!

No human can digest whole kernels of corn so everyone will see it in their poo!!!

haha yes i know we dont digest sweetcorn..but what i mean is can it pass through ur body that quickly??

 

[JillMc]

Oh yeah! normal digestion is 12-24 hours but if you havent had anything in awhile so there is nothibg in you digestive track to block it. then i can be as quick at 20 min

thats quite a good documentary on the benefits of different kinds of fasts from day long fasts to intermittent fasting (which i do and have done for around 10 years now, just a way of life for me).
