To have a smooth bowel movement in under a minute, 'this position' is necessary.
If you are suffering from constipation, pay attention here. We will introduce a special position that allows you to comfortably relieve yourself in less than a minute.
Recently, a video showing the correct bowel movement posture has been gaining attention on social media. The video captured interest with its unique toilet design and bowel movement position based on past research findings.
According to a journal published in 2012 in 'Digestive Diseases and Sciences', people who squat on the toilet take an average of only 51 seconds to relieve themselves. In contrast, those who sit on a standard toilet record an average time of over 2 minutes.
However, squatting on a typical toilet is not easy. According to a report by the British daily DailyMail on the 1st (local time), a special toilet that makes this posture easier has been released.
This toilet has a deeply scooped shape, allowing the rectum to align straight, which helps facilitate the fastest bowel movement.

Gastrointestinal health experts told DailyMail, "The squatting position is actually the most ideal posture for bowel movements."
Kelsey Trull, a gastroenterologist in the UK, stated, "Squatting allows the intestines to straighten out, and the pelvic floor muscles known as the puborectalis relax to promote bowel movements."
If you cannot use this 'squat toilet', adopting a 'squat position' while on the toilet can also be beneficial.
As the demonstration video of the toilet gained traction on social media, netizens commented with reactions such as, "Isn’t water going to splash on my butt?", "Can I borrow it just once?", and "I wish a toilet cover in that shape would come out."
