What do you mean, the human stomach is absolutely not a "one line road", your comments lacks the basic biological understanding. What you're describing is a good generic diet and maybe that's why it feels good but please learn a bit more about the stuff you are expetimenting on.

I did not mention stomach. I meant the GI-tract as a whole. I've used food coloring and indigestibles (like corn kernels) to do experiments on whether meals can "overtake" or "merge" or "join" with other meals into poops.

I'd love to read more about your experiments, please don't refrain from writing about it someday.

Consumption of dairy and products are a relatively fast and painful solution for personal system purges within 30m but entirely depends on how processed they are.

you may evaluate the concept of a milk enema, dramatic and rapid defecation ensues in comparison to a saline enema

At that point it’s less of an ‘enema’ and more like udder chaos.

I mean the most obvious reason is fibers

For me the most obvious reason is that we are primates and most primates have a fruit heavy diet. So I believe that's a reason for our human bodies to be very well adapted to fruit. And that's the fibers, vitamins, minerals and sugars... The whole package.

Yeah, but during what part of the day do they eat it?! ^_^
