At about 4:30pm today I ate a bowl of soup. At 12:45am I went to the bathroom, and lo and behold what do I find? In my excrement I find clear traces of the soup I ate. This is only 8 hours and 15 minutes after I ate it! I suspected my digestive system worked fast, but THAT fast? Is that normal? How long does it usually take from the time food enters the body to when the waste products of the same food are expelled? If this is abnormal, what could be the cause, and what are the possible reprocussions?

I do not have diarhea, so that is out as an explaination.

Any info anyone can give me would be a help, and sources to back up facts would be great, especially concerning the time it takes the digestive system to work. Thanks and God bless!

It's definitely not manufactured by a large company or anything. It's a clear pill, filled with powder that is the color of coagulated blood. Very distinctive smell, almost like pasta sauce. But disgusting, in a way. I found it under a bible in a closet in my house... Is it a drug? What is it?

I have a hard time falling asleep. When my mind goes into overdrive I will think and over think things in my head. These include singing songs or getting emotional about things I can't change in the past, I will start to get mad at people who did me wrong. I tell my head to stop, but it just keeps teeming with random thoughts. How can I ease my mind and just get some sleep?

Sorry about this question, but I cant seem to get rid of my gassy stomach. Every day I suffer from this. I dont eat bad foods, always healthy home cooked meals. But I get totally bloated and gassy with pain after I eat. What can be causing this and what can I do about it?

I purchased a Rexton Regatta, 1 1/2 years ago & they have been breaking alot, so therefore I am in the market again for hearing aides. I was wondering if anyone knew of a website that would tell me a hearing aids durability level so this doesn't happen again. All I can find so far is websites that sell hearing aides & "Positive" reviews on whatever they happen to sell.

all of us "four eyes" know what i'm talking about. when you wear glasses that have silicone nose pads a bright green substance eventually shows up around the spot where the pad connects to the frame.

i do believe the substance's color and proximity to mucus is simply a coincidence... but then, what is the stuff? and why is it the only place it shows up? and what gives it the bright green color?

Apparently some people in Texas think it's horrible that researchers now have the power to prevent the suffering and death that results from cervical cancer. They think that it will encourage young girls to have sex.

Let me ask you this:

If the risk of

*pregnancy,
*the transmission of a wide variety of sexually transmitted diseases,
*suffering physical pain as a result of losing virginity,
*getting caught by friends or family,
*or having friends and family otherwise finding out

didn't stop teenage girls from having sex, what makes you think that cervical cancer, a disease that is caused by a virus that may or may not be transmitted and may or may not cause cancer decades in the future stop them?

That's like saying it would be more beneficial for society to NOT have an a vaccine for lung cancer because it would encourage people to start smoking.

But why stop there? Why not protest a vaccine for all cancers because it might encourage people to eat Plutonium?

I was at a sleepover and my friends were getting high and i could smell it pretty strongly for so long. Will this effect anything in my system? I haven't smoked or anything before but if I get tested what do you think the outcome would be?
