A US doctor has gone on the record with the best time of day to do your number twos to make sure you\u2019re as healthy as possible.<\/h3>\n

Jokes aside, bowel movements are crucial to our wellbeing. As they say, what goes in must come out.<\/p>\n

Dr Kenneth Koch, chief of gastroenterology at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Centre in the US, has identified the ideal time of day to do your business.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor most people, the best time and their regular time is in the morning,\u201d Dr Koch told Women\u2019s Health<\/a>.<\/p>\n

He said the reason was because you process the food you ate during the day while you\u2019re sleeping.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Most people are heading to the toilet within 30 minutes of waking up, he said.<\/h3>\n

\u201cYou can think of 100 reasons you don\u2019t have time,\u201d said Dr Koch. \u201cBut have that breakfast, recognise that urge to have a bowel movement, and then take the time. That\u2019s how you get into a regular movement.\u201d<\/p>\n

And that apparently is the Golden Rule to healthy pooping: regularity.<\/p>\n

Dr Stephen B. Hanauer from Northwestern Medicine Digestive Health Centre has some advice on that.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe best way to have regular bowel habits is to be regular in the things that effect bowel habits,\u201d he told Women\u2019s Health<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These include coffee, fruits, vegetables, and fibre.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople who have patterns and regular habits are able to utilise them,\u201d said Dr Hanauer.<\/p>\n

He recommended building a toilet break into your schedule first thing in the morning.<\/p>\n

And if you don\u2019t, your body converts the stool to gas, making you gassy and bloated, said Dr Hanauer.<\/p>\n

This could lead to constipation and irritable bowel syndrome \u2013 so best you take care of business first thing!<\/p>\n
