my understanding is that as autonomic arousal increases in the early part of the day ideally after a good night's sleep that bowel movements become more likely unless that arousal becomes so great that then people feel so quote unquote locked up right because of the the balance of the autonomic features so early day I'm guessing and again in the second half of the day and here I'm totally guessing and certainly not having to wake in the middle of the night yeah those are my best guesses so I would agree with that when I was at Harvard Medical School in UCSF or residency I was taught that constipation is having a bell movement less frequently than one every once every three days sorry I don't think I've ever laughed out loud on this podcast as a consequence of of textbook medical knowledge are you kidding me is that ridiculous
