Answers:
Normal ranges from once a day to once a week, though the vast majority of people go every 1-2 days!.

Two major factors determine how often you go:
1) Your diet
2) Your body

Some people develop abnormal elimination patterns where they hold it in for days and days then soil their underwear (encopresis)!. Others go 4 times a day!. The physiology (link b/t brain and butt in this case) of your particular body is an important factor!.

Bulk-forming diet (ex: high fiber diets) make you go more often!. Eating lots of fruit and veggies, or even a glass of psyllium (Metamucil), every day will increase your stool frequency!. They should also make the stools soft!. Drinking lots of water will also help make softer stools!.

The bottom line: if
1) you are not bothered by it
2) you are not suffering from it
3) your stools are not rock hard pellets
4) you are able to empty the rectum when you feel you should

Then you are probably OK!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

About once a day is considered healthy or normal!.I fit is days as you say,then you should see a doctor!.The longer fecal matter remains in the colon,the more susceptible that person becomes to certain types of cancer!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

its actually an average of 3-5 per day is consider a person who is actively healthy!.

but since alot of people still are not alot into their diets fibers!. it can be at least 1-2 per day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Healthy is usually considered to be at least daily or every second day!.

Eat more fibre and roughage such as fruit and vegies!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
