    So if I go twice a day, am I going to become the next Einstein?

      “Increased risk was also found among those who pooped more than twice daily,”

        So Dasnap is right that pooping exactly twice a day will inevitably make them a supergenius?

            You should write motivational books about your exploits in succeeding via precision defecation 😂

              Push-ups, sit-ups, and plenty of juice.

        Compared with people who pooped once a day, constipated participants had significantly worse cognition equivalent to three years more of chronological cognitive aging, the authors found. Increased risk was also found among those who pooped more than twice daily, though these higher odds were small.

        This feels like one of those correlation = causation assumptions.

      Yes, and during the day before a colonoscopy you will become super Einstein - based on the amount of time you spend on the toilet.
