Supremely Constipated?Among the strangest claims North Korea made about its late Supreme Leader Kim Jong-il? He was the greatest golfer in the world; he invented the hamburger; and he did not pee or poop. According to North Korean textbooks, Jong-il was a supernatural being who transcended normal human biological processes.

VolvulusThis twisting of the colon causes intestinal obstruction and can cause abdominal pain in addition to the inability to pass stool. There is marked geographic variation in this condi-tion, with the highest rates seen in the so-called “volvulus belt,” countries including India, Iran, Russia, and Brazil where volvulus is a common cause of intestinal obstruction. While genetic factors may play a role, these countries’ residents also consume high-fiber diets that result in them having larger-diameter colons and may, in turn, predispose them to volvulus formation.

Chamber PotsA chamber pot consists of a bowl-shaped container with a handle typically kept under a bed. Chamber pots remained in common use until the nineteenth century, when the introduc-tion of indoor flush toilets started to replace them. Chamber pots are still in use today in areas lacking indoor plumbing such as rural parts of China, and have been redesigned as a bedpan for use by the very ill.

Ruling from the ThroneIn the late 1600s, King Louis XIV of France regularly held official meetings while sitting on his beloved “throne.” Known for his absolute command of power, Louis was an impartial ruler when it came to poo, unabashedly relieving himself in front of royalty and peons alike. Perhaps Louis XIV’s comfort level with defecation con-tributed to his record-setting 72-year reign of power. After all, what oppos-ing ruler could effectively negotiate with the king when faced with the con-stant threat of having to witness His Majesty’s next bowel movement?

08Yellow PooWe all know that poo should be brown and pee should be yellow. Sometimes, however, the body produces a yellow-hued poo, leaving us to wonder why. Like most changes in the hue of poo, long-lasting perturbations are most worrisome. The main cause of yellow poo is the presence of fat in the stool, which occurs when dietary fats can’t be digested by the body. This produces a yellow, glistening, floating stool indicat-ing a problem with the small intestine, pancreas, or liver.

That’s Not Baby PowderYou’d expect baby changing tables to contain traces of baby poop. But a recent study conducted on over 100 changing tables found that 92 percent also contain traces of cocaine. The changing tables tested were located in hospitals, shopping centers, and—more surprisingly—churches and police stations.
