I’m 19, a vegetarian (tho I do eat dairy and eggs) and have, in my opinion, a fairly healthy diet. I probably don’t eat enough iron but I supplement with vitamins.
My real question is, why, when I eat well, do I never seem to have what is considered as ‘healthy faeces’. I almost always check, to make sure there isn’t anything wrong with my waste. It’s often soft, broken into small pieces, sometimes even runny. There’s occasions where I have to really push, though I try not to for health purposes and then there’s barely anything in the bowl, or it’s thin and small...
I rarely miss breakfast, and definitely have enough fibre. Could it be something like irritable bowel syndrome? I don’t really know the symptoms… it’s probably about time I saw the doctor for a general health check-up, but if anyone has any suggestions, and hopefully nothing that really costs money, cause i’m quite poor atm.
Thanks to anyone who has any ideas.
