The fact that one should aim for a healthy diet rich in fiber and essential fatty acids is no groundbreaking news. However, TikTokers have now found a new reason to strive toward a nutritious lifestyle.
With 15 million views on the social media platform, the evasive “ghost poop” is currently capturing the minds and hearts of TikTokers all across the platform
But what exactly is ghost poop, and why should everyone be hoping to experience the phenomenon on the regular?
In a TikTok with more than 7.5 million views, naturopathic doctor Janine Bowering explains that ghost poop is a sign that “you may just be the healthiest person on the planet”.
The term can be used to describe stool that seemingly vanishes, with either no trace of it in the toilet or a stool that doesn’t show on toilet paper. And it is something that should be sought after and celebrated.
TikToker Steven Wright, who goes by ‘healthygutsteven’ on the platform, described ghost poop as “the ideal”.
After all, ghost poop is the result of an exceptionally smooth stool. It is achieved through staying hydrated and ingesting enough fiber and essential fatty acids.
“It’s what we’re shooting for on a regular basis, but it’s probably not going to happen every day,” Wright explains.
