Using a bathroom stool could help your stool, according to a new study published in the Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology.
Products like the Shakhtool (which are known scientifically as “defecation postural modification devices,” or DPMDs) have in recent years gained a cult following for purportedly helping people relieve themselves in the most natural position: squatting. People can mimic a squat by simply placing their feet on a stool while using the toilet, raising their knees above their hips.
