I have a health question

If you been drinking alot of water & I know it flushes out the bad stuff in your body, when you go to the bathroom, will it turn into pee or a bowel movement? I’m not sure.

simplified complicated answer, is it depends. it will go both places, proportion to each end is variable. your BMs will be more voluminous and you will pee more.

The human body has a complex feedback mechanism that constantly adjusts fluid balance.
Essentially it ensures there is adequate water for maintaining all necessary body systems and the remainder is discarded through the kidneys. It's a good thing to remain well hydrated, particularly in hot climates, some people "learn" not to respond to the thirst sensation. However it is foolish to go consuming litres of water for no reason, in the short term your body just excretes it in urine, long term you can have issues with low electrolyte levels, particularly sodium.

If your urine is a very light yellow colour you're adequately hydrated.

kitty, please listen to the signals your body sends you.

the key thing is to not let the urine STAY that color, immediately get some water.

I been drinking alot of water everyday, twice this week, I drank 6 cups. Not only water is helping me, I have fiber pills with digestion health, fiber helping my Psoriasis to get better & lighter

diarrhea is definitely NOT good. hope you're not having any of THAT. instead of "pencil poop" you'll be having more like polish sausage-sized poop which is more normal. and it sounds like you're doing better there is an old expression, "the solution to pollution is dilution" meaning drinking more water helps flush out bad things from your body.
