Squatty Potty Ecco Toilet Stool

Most of us have become fully accustomed to western toilets over the years – the idea of squatting just wouldn’t be considered. However, there’s a reason that some cultures still do squat; it’s actually a much healthier and natural way to use the toilet.

Squatty Potty Ecco Toilet Stool cons

2. The product is generally only available online.

How does the Squatty Potty Ecco Toilet Stool work?

If you have visited an Eastern country, you may have discovered toilets which are based in the ground. While these may appear strange, they are actually promoting a natural squatting position of the body which allows it to eliminate waste much easier.

If we were turn to science, the sitting position is something that hinders our elimination process significantly. Our puborectalis muscle effectively chokes the rectum and forces it to eliminate waste – when the whole process should be natural. This forceful process results in undue pressure being placed on blood vessels around the rectum, prompting a whole host of health concerns which we will address shortly.

The Squatty Potty Ecco Toilet Stool follows a similar approach to Eastern toilets. Unfortunately, for those of us who have used Western toilets for a lifetime, it’s almost impossible for us to immediately switch to a full squat. This is how this product helps; it raises your feet slightly so your body is almost in a full squat position and can ultimately eliminate waste more effectively.

The upshot is that your colon will be placed in a better position and you will be less likely to strain. Consequently, the chances of you being constipated, or contracting IBS, haemorrhoids or bowel disease are significantly reduced.

Will the Squatty Potty Ecco Toilet Stool work for you?

As we have just mentioned, straining can cause several problems including IBS, haemorrhoids and bowel disease. If you are already suffering from any of these conditions, it goes without saying that the Squatty Potty Ecco Toilet Stool can help substantially and immediately put your colon in a position where it is not being strained as much.

Additionally, if you have tried using an Eastern toilet but just can’t get to grips with it, this is another reason how the product can work for you.

As we have been brought up on Western-style toilets for so long, most of us just don’t understand the whole squatting basis. The Squatty Potty Ecco Toilet Stool allows us to approach this gently; raising our legs so that our body is in the squatting position, while we’re still using a Western toilet. It’s a best of both worlds solution.
