We are all 'solving the need' in the wrong way

That's a statement by a German microbiologist when it comes to the habit of defecation of everyone, especially the residents of the West.

Science suggests "solving needs" properly

German microbiologist Giulia Enders claims, the way we sit on a pedestal to get stool out of the popular gut is now completely wrong. Instead, people should use a squat toilet.

The conclusion was drawn after Ms. Enders spent a lot of time researching intestinal problems, from constipation to infection. According to German microbiologists, the intestinal gastrointestinal system is the "most important mentor of the brain" , influencing everything from mental health to our digestive health. And the way we defecate affects them.

Ms. Enders emphasized that sitting on the ground while defecating is not appropriate and actually extends the process of "solving the sadness" of people. This may help explain why hemorrhoids and painful intestinal diseases, such as gut inflammation in the large intestine, are more common in the West than in Asia.

Enders said: "1.2 billion people around the world squat when defecation hardly suffers from inflammation of the intestine in the large intestine and less problems with hemorrhoids."

Mrs. Enders said, the best way to fake empty discharge is to squat . This is because, the intestinal closure mechanism is not designed to "completely open the door " when we sit on a stand or stand. It was like a hose with a knot.

When we sit on the ground or standing, the rectal muscles around the end of the intestine will pull the rectum, forming a winding line, extending the defecation time. In contrast, the squatting posture helps relax the rectal muscles, keeping the rectum straight and creating less pressure on the buttocks, making the discharge of the intestines faster and less harmful.

According to some experts, we all squat until the middle of the 19th century. "Babies instinctively squat to defecate and most people in the world have also done so. However, by way of Somehow, Westerners are convinced that sitting squat is more civilized, " wrote an American doctor named Joseph Mercola on his website.
