Why Posture Matters

Did you know that the way you sit on the toilet can have a significant impact on your digestive health? The modern toilet, while convenient, doesn't support the natural squatting position that our bodies are designed for. Learn why posture matters and how it affects your overall health.

The Science of Squatting

The puborectalis muscle plays a crucial role in controlling the angle of the rectum during bowel movements. Sitting in a standard position partially loosens this muscle, leading to unnecessary strain. In contrast, squatting fully relaxes the muscle, promoting easier and more complete elimination

Benefits of Proper Squatting

  • Reduces strain, helping prevent issues like piles and constipation.

  • Shortens bathroom time and promotes complete elimination.

  • Supports long-term digestive health and overall well-being.
