Constipation is a common problem that affects the quality of life of many people. One factor often overlooked is the posture of the body during our visit to the toilet. Research has shown that the traditional sitting position in western toilets can contribute to problems such as constipation, hemorrhoids and even divertication.
The stop at the toilet that facilitates the stools
Scientists point out that the most effective attitude of man to relieve him when visiting the toilet is Squatt (Squatting Position)that is, with the knees at an angle of approximately 35 degree about the trunk. In this attitude:
- The rectum (the final part of the intestine) is better aligned, allowing easier emptying.
- The pelvic floor muscles are completely relaxed, reducing intensity and pressure.
- Excessive stress is avoided, which can lead to hemorrhoids and other problems.
On the contrary, in the usual sitting attitude of 90 degreethe rectum is not fully aligned, which makes it difficult for the process of emptying and can lead to constipation or incomplete emptying.
Statistics & Studies
According to a study1emptying in a bent stance requires significantly less time (about 50 seconds) compared to the usual sitting position in a basin (about 130 seconds). This suggests that the bent stance can facilitate the process.
To simulate the bent stance on a western -style toilet, you can use a footstoolby placing your feet on it so that the knees are taller than the hips. This position helps to align the rectum and facilitates emptying.
