The Squatty Potty is put to the test.
Earlier, I talked about the potential effectiveness of prunes and dried figs to keep us regular. What an effect does body position when defecating? While squatting remains the traditional posture of Asian and African people, Westerners are used to sitting on toilet seats. When we do this, we sit up straight and our palms are forced to turn about 90 degrees, the “anorectal angle”, which you can see below and at 0:37 in my video. Best pop position for constipation.
Now, that’s a good thing to keep us off our pants every time we sit down. But when it comes to speaking to do our business, the state of the toilet defeats the purpose of our bodies’ brilliant design – like trying to drive a car without releasing the parking brake. However, many doctors are hesitant to discuss “such a function of the body”, or perhaps they are unaware. Doctors do not know silence.
Of course, this is from someone who owns a company that sells people their toilet platforms. In a previous video, I talked about those little plates you can use when raising your knees, but they weren’t like that. found to make a difference in terms of self-reported difficulty going to the toilet or average time to have a bowel movement. These exhausts only provide a four-inch push, while the Squatty Potty is twice the height. What happened when it was put to the test?
Researchers was implemented The Squatty Potty “defecation changing device” and it worked! Participants reported an increased feeling of bowel emptying, decreased tension, and approximately one minute less time spent reading on pot. The only drawback is discomfort Even just a six-inch top caused such severe discomfort to study participants in a previous experiment that they abandoned the study.
How else can we get the same change in your angle is achieved when you raise your legs? How alone lean on before, as shown below and in 2:14 in me video?
Look familiar? It is like Rodin’s famous sculpture “The Thinker”. And indeed, the Cleveland Clinic researchers decided to study the “Thinker” position for the toilet. They were able to show the anorectal angle measured using it kinedefecography-your SAT word for the day, basically meaning x-ray film of the foot– opens more than 130 degrees. It’s better than simple raising your legs that open the angle only about 90 degrees. Therefore, the position of “Thinker” can be to be a more efficient method for the toilet. It may also help with constipation, but it has not yet been formally tested.
As a side, you can imagine What is the worst position that can be on your back using the bed. Due to increased blood pressure in the heart and brain during exercise, straining during bowel movements is associated with sudden death from heart attack and stroke. In fact, it’s been found to be a daily activity that often occurs during death in Japan, and those who can’t get out of bed are especially at risk. Therefore, if possible, it may help to keep people in bed to put less stress on the system.
It is important that get a step back, but in this meeting with the back discussion, as a comment about 50 years ago did. Yes, the side-by-side position is called natural because it is used by the so-called primitive peoples who easily pass through large boards, so that the side-by-side advocates to blame under the Chinese throne for all kinds of Western diseases. But the position is really make The difference is that you eat the right food? “A man who is taller because he doesn’t have modern plumbing also tends to eat less refined food,” meaning more natural foods that don’t have processed fiber. Adding fiber to the diet can allow constipated patients to poop more easily without straining. So maybe if we just change the design of our diet, we don’t need to change the design of our plumbing.
Dr.’s comment
The video about the plum I referred to Turmeric: a natural remedy for constipation.
