I know high fiber foods is a large part of it, but is there anything else to it?
none, or get a bidet, but you would want to wipe for sanitary reasons anyways.
I think you missed the point.
“No wipe poops” doesn’t mean you never wipe again. It means poop that leaves behind insignificant residue.
I periodicity have these, and it’s a joy. There’s definitely a dietary aspect to it, and moving that direction seems to be the point here.
Thank you for understanding and emphasis on the point of my question 👍
Consistent ghost poops whenever I’m eating vegan consistently.
Mainly because meat gets swapped to beans and other high fibre options
Fry ups make my shit come out like a greased otter. Probably all the oil.
Healthy, fibre heavy foods make a right mess, like tar. Even the travel bidet struggles with that.
It sounds like you may have a a slight case of steattorhea? Do these otter poops float as well?
Because if so, it might be some slight absorption issue. I seem to have one, my poops being very much like you describe. Both, at times.
But when I went on an exclusion diet and then added things back in I realised I apparently have a slight gluten sensitivity. Leaving out gluten and dairy completely made an insane change. Even when I would eat greasy chicken wings, I wouldn’t get dem greasy otter poops. Just like, more regular poops, despite what I ate.
I’m not saying you have the same thing, just saying I had that.
Related though, there is I believe like an over-the-counter supplement that’s enzymes which help with the absorption / break down of the food, because greasy stools can be a result of too little of some pancreatic enzymes or something.
Am not a trained medical professional, btw, so don’t take medical advice from me. But like, things to look up at least.
As a gluten and fructose intolerant person, I agree. That shit makes shit shit.
I call those poops flawless victories.
- Wax your ass
- Get a squatting stool
- Don’t eat spicy food
- High Fiber, meaning, don’t eat anything purréd
- Try to eat a salad with lunch/dinner
- Limit or eliminate processed foods
- Limit saturated fat intake up until the point your gallbladder can keep up
- Red sauces, not white sauces
- Eliminate fried food
- Eat foods that are in a form where you can visually discern each major ingredient. (That’s kinda where the term “Whole Foods” comes from)
- Eat lean proteins like chicken/fish/Pork (not bacon)
You lost me at 3 ngl.
They lost me at no. 1
Shaving works too. I’ve gotten pretty good at getting it clean with a double edge safety razor. About once every couple of weeks keeps the wiping pretty easy.
somehow, putting a blade to my asshole doesn’t really sound that appealing.
Reading number 3 makes me angry.
Legit hard dealbreaker
Why no spicy food?
I think it’s more likely to accelerate digestion and it can give you the runs, not 100% sure on that explanation though
Basically this. Increased gut motility from inflammation reduces the time spent extracting water from your stool, which is exactly counterproductive to the OP’s question.
You don’t need to wax your ass if you produce teflon grade poops as asked in this thread. I found out week long feats of uninterrupted veganism helped, so i’d argue balancing fibre intake is key. But i’m not doctor, just like the person i just replyed to.
A bidet
I find they’re hard to eat.
You have to eat them one bidet at a time.
High fiber and proper hydration.
I drink hella water and eat nothing but greens, beans, and whole grains… stilly sticky as, well, shit. So there’s clearly other factors at play.
So no sugar or even aspartame? Dairy? You might also have an allergy.
I actually find low hydration is the best approach. The system removes a lot more moisture from the waste resulting in solid non-smearing packets.
Pretty sure that’s not how that works.
You can get close by eating vegan.
Sorry, I don’t know enough vegans to sustain my diet…
