Closing the loop
Passive tracking of Bristol type of every event and frequency and rhythm over time shows whether a dietary change actually moved your numbers.

“The test you take every day beats the perfect test you take once a year.”
Personal, not generic
A single event is noisy; the clinical value lives in the longitudinal trend against your own baseline. Your response to food is unique, so a personal baseline beats any one-size-fits-all rule.
