In Praise of the Squatty Potty
Oprah Winfrey has affected my health practices in at least two ways. First, I use a neti pot. (See “Cost Benefit Analysis Applied to Neti Pot Use.”) Second, I use a Squatty Potty. My own personal experience matches the average experience of those in the study discussed (in both text and video) in Jamie Ducharme’s January 10, 2019 Time article “Scientists Say This Popular Bathroom Accessory Really Does Help You Poop Better.” The design is also well done. It scoots under the toilet out of the way when not in use. Having a Squatty Potty for each toilet in the house has made my life better. I recommend it. That is about all there is to say.
