how long for food to be poop?

Posted 01.21.2004 by Poonurse (1313)
Vatfryer asks:

I was wondering if it was true that when a person dies, he or she evacuates immediately afterwards. Is this true, or is it an urban legend?


Dear Vatfryer,

This is absolutely true. Except that it doesn't ALWAYS happen. I used to work in a nursing home and had to wrap probably 2-3 dead people a week. At least one would have crapped.

Hope this helps!

Please be advised that I am only a Poonurse. I am NOT a medical doctor. Any advice I give should be taken moderate skepticism. Please consult a REAL medical doctor if you feel you have a serious medical condition.

Hi! I'm doing a speech for school on the scoop on poop. I need to know some humorous animal poop facts quick!
Thanks a bunch! LuLu

Well, since your speech is over, I hope you found some information quick, LuLu.

Yes, people do crap when they die and so do animals. I had a hampster die of a head injury in my hand and she shit everywhere.

Is it true that morticains shove a big colon tube in a dead body to flush everything out? I have heard they do this but it is a dark secret to embalming and they will not tell a common person they actually do this.

why is it that some poop comes out in many peices, and some is one whole thing? is it bad for it to be in peices? i think i read that somewhere.

As a gay male I engage in anal sex where I am the bttm.

I find that after anal sex... and for awhile after my Pooh has a lot of Mucous around it. Usually its a little bit at the start of my pooh being all covered in white... or sometimes all of it is covered in mucous. is this a bad thing?!

Motherload (940) -- 10.11.2006

T. Anthony, I am going to assume that a condom is being used, which would eliminate the possibility that it is semen that you are seeing around your poo. If that is the case, good job.

Any time there is irritation to a mucosal membrane---whether it be in the rectum, or the nose, or the intestines---this causes excess mucus to be secreted in an attempt to soothe the affected area and wash away any harmful substances such as dust, bacteria or whatever is causing the irritation.

The presence of mucus itself is not a bad thing, since it means that your body is reacting normally. But a better lubricant may be needed to cut down on the irritation which is the underlying cause of the increase in secretions. That is not such a good thing.

Not everyone poops when they die.

As for the "poop coming out in pieces" question. Everyone's body works different. As long as there is no major change in regular bowel habits, I would not worry.

Poops to much (not verified) -- 03.02.2007

I was wondering, is normal to poo after every meal. IS there ever a problem with pooping too much?

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 03.24.2007

OK, I have been wondering about this forever but I never found anybody to ask. If you eat a food, and it comes out whole in your poop(ie, corn or sunflower seeds), do you still get the calories from it?
