How much?

How long is there blood in stool?
B
How can you get a stomach ache?
C
How much poop when pooping?
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -How much should I be pooing? The average person poos about 30 millilitres of stool for every five kilograms of body weight a day. So for the average 70 kilogram person, that works out to about a half a kilogram (one pound) of poop per day.

Detailed explanation-2: -Infrequent bowel movements may be related to inadequate calorie intake. This isn’t surprising, since consuming very little food will result in less waste in your digestive tract.

Detailed explanation-3: -The normal length of time between bowel movements varies widely from person to person. Some people have them three times a day. Others have them just a few times a week. Going longer than 3 or more days without one, though, is usually too long.
