Squatty Potty

I know it may be good But how did they ,,,will I guess they all do look as if they are laughing..

I know I have a thing for toilets and toilet jokes did you see some of my first post. My daughter said mommy people are going to think something is wrong with you. But it's funny... So here's one more.
What's funny will picture in your head 12 or more very serious people in a room drawing this up. throwing ideas at each other. Demonstrating it. I would laugh at the one trying to hard i look serious and at those that look as if a chuckle was about to slip. Almost like when you where a kid in health ed class.

 All in all find something every day to chuckle about ..Even if it to your self.  

The Squatting Concept

123

Squatting to eliminate is healthier.

We are hardly the first to feel strongly about this: doctors, naturopaths, and assorted holistic health professionals have pointed out the hazards of the modern toilet for years. This is not the superstitious distrust of all things modern or internet quackery that one occasionally comes across in the holistic world. There is empirical evidence  that suggests that elevating your feet during elimination is healthier. The problem is our modern day toilets aren’t designed for squatting.

The modern day toilet is convenient, but definitely not perfect. While sitting to do our business may be sold to us as civilized, this small change in the way we clear our bodies of waste and toxins has brought on a number of health problems that plague us today.

It’s all about proper alignment! Your body is designed to be in the squatting position to eliminate. You can control to some extent your need to defecate by contracting or releasing the anal sphincter. But that muscle can’t maintain continence on its own. Our bodies rely on a bend between the rectum, where the feces is stored- and the anus- where the feces comes out.

When we’re sitting this bend, called the anorectal angle, is kinked which puts upward pressure on the rectum and keeps the feces inside. This creates the need to STRAIN in order to eliminate. Compare sitting on the toilet to a kinked garden hose, it just doesn’t work properly. In a squatting posture the bend straightens out and defecation becomes easier.

Assuming the squat position is the natural way to achieve easier and more complete elimination. Research has shown that in some people, the kink is completely gone while squatting.
