Most of the time, blueberry-induced pooping is harmless. It’s just your body doing its thing. But if you’re experiencing cramping, diarrhea, or blood, that’s a different story. Please see a doctor—I’m not a medical professional, I’m just a girl who ate too many berries.
Also, if you’re eating blueberries dried or in a smoothie, the effect can be even stronger. Concentrated fiber + less water = extra urgency. You’ve been warned.
Side note: Dried blueberries are basically nature’s laxative pills. They’re delicious, but they come with a surrender flag.
