That's very interesting! My first reaction is one of disbelief because steak and eggs could send someone with IBS running for the loo, but a trip to space likely entails altered energy needs, and a high energy meal loaded with protein would certainly make sense.
- throwup238 2y agoAs I understand it, any chronic conditions that would impact an astronaut's ability to do their job would disqualify them. There's just too much at stake and too much competition for the spot. IBS isn't explicitly listed as a disqualifier like diabetes or heart disease but I doubt it would fly with NASA, especially since it tends to get worse under stress.
