Water is extracted toward the end of the digestive cycle , Along with the water other substances are also absorbed such as electrolytes. That is why diarrhea can impair and kill you. You heard of the phrase “blowing smoke up your *ss”. People knew tobacco was a strong stimulant so they literally blew smoke up peoples rear ends. It didn’t work hence the term is still in use today.

One more thing.

Is that because diarrhea (loose bowels) are caused because the lower digestive cycle doesn’t extract water as it should?

Is the danger of diarrhea that you become dehydrated?

Ummmm.

Nicotine enemas were often used right up to the 60s.

As far as I know they never used smoke.
