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.

Not pooping often enough? Jail. Pooping too often? Believe it or not, also jail

I tried to upvote your comment twice... I'm stupid maybe I don't poop enough

My 3-year-old niece is chronically constipated, so I think this must mean she's as smart as a 6-year-old.
