Bowel Transit Time

To calculate your BOWEL TRANSIT TIME, eat a large handful of sunflower seeds with a large meal of the day, but do not chew them very well.

You want to leave the cellulose layer around the seed. Mark down the time that you take them. (You can also use corn.)


Time and date taken:                                                                                .

Now watch your bowel movements and when you see the kernels of sunflower seeds, or corn, mark this time down.

Time and date when first observing the kernels come through.                                              
                                           


Calculate the time interval between those two times and that is your Bowel Transit Time.

Write it down somewhere please.
