Trivia for KBordson

Recommended Posts

Since I don't have a direct line to Dr. Oz, I thought I would pose this question to KBordson:

Why is it that when you eat corn, and you KNOW you chewed it well before swallowing it, that it ends up as whole kernels in your poo?:S

Inquiring minds want to know.

:D I asked Walt the same question last week. He gave me a great explanation. I wish I would have saved it.
Be yourself!

the outer skin stays in tact the entire time of chewing. but the stuff on the inside comes out, and your stomach acids don't disolve the skin, so it appears to be full kernals of corn in your poop.

I just made that up.. am i anything close to correct?

LOL!!!!!! It has to do with our ability (or inability) to digest cellulouse. We might be able to chew it up... but we can't really break it down. We are missing the proper enzyemes....

but... Remember, Dammit Jim, I'm an ob/gyn not a gastroenterologist.

(I was GREATLY amused by that question.)

Is that commonly used as a reference by the medical community?:D:D
