Intestinal bulk
01
Overview
Intestinal bulk" is a general term describing the *physical mass within the intestines*, usually referring to the fiber or indigestible material that absorbs water, increases stool volume, and stimulates peristalsis (bowel movement)[5][7][9]. It is not a discrete molecular entity but an aggregate property or effect, commonly discussed in the context of nutrition and constipation. Agents affecting intestinal bulk include bulk-forming laxatives, which add soluble fiber to the stool, aiding in easier passage, but neither the bulk itself nor the concept represents a therapeutic molecule, receptor, or any molecular target[7][9][5].
