Healthy Tips to Avoid Constipation!
Constipation is one of the most common bowel issues nowadays! Most seniors suffer from chronic constipation and most women face this problem during pregnancy! Constipation results in dry and hard stools, bloating, and even loss of appetite. Fortunately, there are many ways a person can help relieve constipation.
Constipation is often caused by a fiber shortage. The average women should eat 25 grams per day, while a good target for men makes 38 grams. High-fiber foods are beans, nuts, fruits, and veggies.
Strive for balance, consume enough proteins, fats (yeah, don't skip them), and carbohydrates.
Drink plenty of water, an adult should drink at least 2 liters of water per day. Drink a glass of water 15-20 min before each meal.
Relax for a while before taking a meal.
Food should be well chewed so that the stomach can digest it completely.
Food and beverages must not be very hot (140 degrees F maximum).

Useful to Know
Toilet paper is an essential thing in most bathrooms, and on average, every American uses about 21,000 sheets of toilet paper per year. But did you know that our bowel health directly depends on the quality of the toilet paper we use? Hence, we should choose this product very carefully, paying attention to the following features:
- Softness - toilet paper comes in direct contact with that sensitive area, so the toilet paper should be extra soft.
- Texture - the gauzy texture of the paper increases its absorbent properties.
- Environmental friendliness - the toilet paper should be biodegradable and made from non-hazardous materials.

Treatment and Prevention of Hemorrhodis!
Hemorrhoids are a quite common problem for both men and women. They are the twisted, swollen, and inflamed veins in the wall of a rectum, which can form either internally or externally. If the hemorrhoids are external, the symptoms might include swelling or bluish lumps that can be rather painful. The internal hemorrhoids are generally pain-free, you can just observe bright red blood in the toilet bowl or on toilet paper. In some cases, you might experience some irritation and pain.
So, what's the main cause of hemorrhoids? Applying too much pressure to the lower rectum, which happens when you're straining to have a bowel movement! And the best prevention of this health issue is to avoid straining (what a Squatty Potty actually helps with)! It's also recommended to eat more fiber and dairy products, drink more water and, of course, exercise to improve blood circulation.
Hygiene Above All
Maintaining a proper personal hygiene is very important, especially for women during their periods. Today, a menstrual cup is an excellent alternative to disposable pads and tampons.

What is a Squatty Potty
So, as you've probably guessed, today we’re going to have a "potty" talk.
We all know that a right posture is important when we sit, walk, or stand, but have you ever thought about a proper toilet posture? Did you know that using a regular toilet can lead to constipation, colon disease, hemorrhoids, and pelvic floor issues? And did you know that before the invention of a modern toilet, squatting was the only natural position and the only healthy way to poop? Doctors worldwide agree that there are too many hazards that go along with the modern toilet. Let's face it, we've been pooping wrong all this time!
Yet, knowing is the only half the battle. So, what can we do about it? Get a squatty potty! It's a cleverly designed stool that fits a toilet's curves and elevates your feet and knees to form a 35-degree angle for a squatting position. In other words, the squatty potty fixes your bathroom posture. And without getting too deep into details, our body is able to relieve more efficiently, faster and with a lot less strain, helping us prevent colon diseases. That’s why we strongly believe every family should have a squatty potty!
We also recommend you to take a look at another important hygiene accessory, a bidet toilet seat!
An electric toothbrush is a must in a bathroom since it can fully take care of your oral cavity.
What Features to Compare
Size
When buying a pooping stool, you need to consider its size at first. The standard height of most toilets amounts to 14-16 inches, and 7″ models fit under most standard toilets and are perfect for beginners. However, if you have a higher toilet seat, it's recommended to get a 9″ stool. A 7" squatty potty is great for people taller than 6' and those having knee problems, while 9" footstool is preferable option for advanced or limber squatters.
Material
As usual, squatty potties are made of plastic or bamboo. If you have a light bathroom or small kids, it is better to choose a white plastic model. It's more budget-friendly, safer, and fits most interiors. Bamboo stools have a luxurious woodgrain appearance, they are pleasant to a touch, and they are water- and mold-resistant. Yet, they are a bit pricey.
Conveniences
Although squatting will really reduce the time required to do your business, the process still should be as convenient as possible. Thus, pay attention to ergonomics and usability. For example, a stool can be slightly angled up or down to provide a natural squatting position. It's also great if its platform has special textured grips that prevent your feet from sweating. In case you have a big family, opt for the adjustable model so that each of you could set the right angle. And as a bonus, some squatty potties come with handles for easy transportation.
