Transform Your Toilet Experiences with the Adjustable Squatty Potty Toilet Stool!
Do you often feel constipated or have to strain for a bowel movement? Do you suffer with haemorrhoids or feel you haven't quite 'finished' when you leave the bathroom? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, the chances are you’re going to the toilet incorrectly – yes, there is a right and a not-so-right way to defecate!
Taking Things Back to Nature with the Squatty Potty
The simple fact here is that we humans were not designed to poop in a seated position. Those comfortable porcelain thrones we've all become so accustomed to are actually causing us issues that can have life-long effects on our health! We're talking ailments such as:
Bowel prolapse
- Bladder incontinence
- Bladder prolapse
- Faecal incontinence
- Haemorrhoids
- Faecal Impaction (the hardening of faecal matter in the colon which can lead to other health complications pertaining to the digestive system)
When you sit on a toilet, your rectum is held partially shut by your puborectalis muscle. This means you have to strain to go, and often can’t fully empty your bowels. It also means that excess wiping is required as much of your 'matter' remains in the rectum, so if you find you wipe and wipe to little avail after using the toilet, the chances are you need the Squatty Potty in your life!
An independent study by the Ohio State University proved the efficacy of using a toilet stool. Of the healthy adult participants, 71% of them reported a noticeable reduction in the time they spent on the toilet, with an incredible 90% saying they experienced a noticeable reduction in the need to strain.
It's Time You Found Your Perfect Pooping Position
The correct position is to squat, as this angle releases the puborectalis and allows for quick and complete defecation.
People from countries with more traditional toilet structures (such as hole in the ground) or those who squat over the toilet rather than sitting on it, almost never report constipation, piles and other poo related problems. So how do you get the benefits of a more neanderthal toilet experience when we all have modern toilets in our homes and work places? Squatty Potty have the answer! By placing your feet on this revolutionary toilet stool you will create exactly the right angle to 'go' perfectly every time.
