body waste

What toilets receive

Body waste is material expelled from the body after digestion or metabolism—feces, urine, sweat, and the like.

The term appears mainly in medical, sanitary, or regulatory contexts: proper disposal of body waste, body waste removal systems.

It serves as a clinical alternative to cruder terms.
