According to the data provided by the World Toilet Organization (WTO), everyone has to go to the toilet about 6-8 times a day, about 2,500 times a year.
If it takes 5- 10 minutes to go to the toilet every time, people will spend about three years in the toilet! More importantly, going to the toilet is closely related to our health!
According to the research data of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 200,000 people in the United States are sent to the emergency room every year when there is an accident in the toilet. In China, toilets are also the most frequently visited places by emergency personnel.
In order to prevent accidents when going to the toilet, a cultural park in Minhang District of Shanghai recently put into use an intelligent public toilet with automatic and manual alarm functions.
If there is an accident when going to the toilet, the toilet user can choose the button to call the police. If the toilet user does not come out for more than 15 minutes, the system will automatically call the police to remind the cleaning staff to assist.
This can avoid toilet accidents to a great extent, especially for the elderly and pregnant women, and is a good convenience measure.
However, it is better to take precautions than to mend! Remember to take a look after going to the toilet, it can save lives!
This poop is a sign of danger!
There is still a big controversy about the toilet, that is, the way to go to the toilet. For this reason, everyone is divided into squatting and squatting.
Houdian school
Squatting to the toilet is clean and hygienic, which can solve things quickly.
Toilet school
Sitting in the toilet is more comfortable and can avoid accidents.
Then the question is coming,
Squatting in the toilet,
Which is better?
For young people, squatting in the toilet is better than sitting in the toilet.
0 1, squatting is beneficial to defecation.
There is a kind of muscle in the human body called puborectalis muscle, which is like a ring, hooks the rectum and forms an "anorectal angle" with the rectum. When squatting in the toilet, the anorectal angle is large and straight, like a water pipe, and defecation is not very laborious.
02. Squat toilets are more sanitary than sitting toilets.
This is actually related to personal hygiene habits.
Nowadays, in order to be beautiful and comfortable, shopping malls will use toilets in a unified way, and some will also provide disinfection items. However, it seems that people are not used to using the toilet, and always feel that it is unsanitary to have "skin relatives" with others, so they create all kinds of wonderful toilet "postures". What's more, they squatted directly on the toilet to solve the problem, which made the sanitary environment of the toilet worse.
But here, to be fair.
Many people think that going to the toilet is easy to infect diseases, but this idea is actually unnecessary. Many harmful sexually transmitted diseases, such as syphilis and AIDS, are mostly transmitted through sex or blood, and these pathogens will soon lose their activity after leaving the human body. So you won't get these diseases when you go to the toilet.
But if the resistance is weak, it is still possible to get some skin contact diseases. Therefore, everyone should pay attention to toilet hygiene, and you can bring a portable toilet seat in case of emergency; If there is disinfectant in the toilet in the mall, remember to disinfect it before going to the toilet; Remember to wash your hands in time after going to the toilet and maintain personal hygiene.
03, squatting in the toilet defecates quickly, which is not easy to cause hemorrhoids.
Sitting in the toilet is more comfortable to defecate, which also makes many people develop the habit of bringing mobile phones or magazines into the toilet. It's easy to forget the time when sitting.
This is not a good thing. Prolonged defecation time, toxins and feces stay in the body for a longer time, which is easy to cause hemorrhoids and other problems.
Having said so much about the benefits of squatting in the toilet, is it "useless" to sit in the toilet? Of course not.
Compared with squatting toilets, the biggest advantage of sitting toilets is of course its comfort!
Generally, we also install toilets at home. After all, comfort is the most important thing for most people. Moreover, for pregnant women, the elderly and people with mobility difficulties, sitting in the toilet is also quite friendly. After all, these people can't keep their balance after squatting for a long time.
Sitting in the toilet and squatting in the toilet have their own advantages and disadvantages, and everyone needs what they want according to their physical condition.
But in the final analysis, compared with the way of going to the toilet, the most important thing is to develop healthy defecation habits.
1
Get into the habit of defecating regularly.
After getting up in the morning and within 2 hours after meals, due to postural reflex or gastrocolonic reflex, the whole colon will creep and move forward at the speed of 10cm per hour, which may directly promote defecation.
Therefore, whether you feel comfortable or not, I suggest you go to the toilet for a while at a fixed time every day and gradually develop the habit of defecation at a fixed time.
If the schedule is disrupted in a short time, eating spicy food or traveling long distances may have an impact on your health. In this case, constipation does not need to be too anxious, and it will recover after a while. However, if it has been difficult to defecate, it is still recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up.
2
Clean the toilet regularly.
The toilet is dirty and dirty. After a long time, they are not only dirty, but also smelly, so everyone must clean them often and don't be lazy.
You can buy some special cleaners for toilet cleaning, but you must pay attention to the standard use and don't mix them with other cleaners.
three
Remember to cover it when flushing.
There was a joke on the internet that going to the toilet without a toilet lid was equivalent to eating a stone. Everyone is laughing. Cover the toilet lid after going to the toilet, or bacteria will really spread all over your toilet!
There are thousands of bacteria and microorganisms in the toilet. If we flush the toilet with the toilet lid open, these bacteria will be carried to the sky in an instant and finally land on the towels and toothbrushes in our bathroom. Think about it ... so, everyone must remember to cover the toilet before flushing.
In addition to these toilet habits mentioned above, everyone should also pay attention to these taboos. Don't let the little thing of going to the toilet become a stumbling block to our healthy life.
Avoid forced defecation.
Excessive defecation will lead to a sharp rise in blood pressure and a sharp increase in heart burden, which is easy to induce cardiovascular accidents such as myocardial infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. Old people should pay special attention. If you have difficulty defecating every time, you still have to go to the hospital for examination.
Avoid reading newspapers and mobile phones.
Playing mobile phones or reading newspapers in the toilet will interfere with the brain's command of defecation conduction nerves, thus prolonging the defecation time, which will easily lead to defecation difficulty or habitual constipation over time.
Avoid prolonged defecation.
Whether squatting or sitting in the toilet, the defecation time should not be too long. The best time for defecation should not exceed 10 minutes. Too long defecation time may indicate constipation and other problems. If you sit for more than 30 minutes at a time, it is easy to cause the anal pad to sag and form hemorrhoids. In this case, you'd better go to the hospital for examination.
Avoid wiping your ass.
Wipe your ass is exquisite, don't wipe it at will. Especially girls. Because the female urethra is short and easy to be infected, it should be wiped from front to back after going to the toilet to avoid being infected by bacteria in feces or urine.
Avoid relaxation
Once there is something in life, it is best to solve it at the first time. If you miss or deliberately suppress defecation, it will cause feces to accumulate in the intestine and cause constipation.
In particular, white-collar workers and student groups must develop their own fixed defecation habits, and it is best to solve this "big event" in the morning. "Easy" to start a beautiful day!
Finally, to sum up, squatting and sitting in the toilet have their own advantages and disadvantages. For healthy young people, squatting is more recommended. For the elderly, the disabled or pregnant women, it is more recommended to use the toilet.
If you are sitting on the toilet at home, but you have difficulty defecating, you can try to put a small bench under your feet, or invert a stainless steel basin, which is about twenty or thirty centimeters high, to simulate the effect of squatting in the toilet.
Of course, the good habit of going to the toilet is more important than the way of going to the toilet. The most important thing is not to bring your mobile phone into the toilet! !
