Pills are temporary; habits are permanent. Simple changes in how you sit and when you go can fix constipation naturally.
Using an Indian toilet or a stool under your feet straightens the anorectal angle, making passage easier.
Sit on the toilet at the same time every day (preferably morning) to train your brain and gut.
Walking 30 mins daily stimulates peristalsis (gut movement). Yoga poses like Malasana also help.
The gut has a 'second brain'. Stress tightens pelvic muscles. Deep breathing relaxes them.
Western vs Indian Toilet
"We were designed to squat. Raising your knees above your hips opens the anal canal naturally."
Dr. Jaya demonstrates why the modern Western toilet seat causes a 'kink' in the rectum, blocking stool, and how a simple footstool fixes this.
Do not sit on the toilet for more than 5 minutes. If it doesn't come, leave. Straining causes piles and fissures.
