A useful toilet is looking for investors

A British designer has come up with a healthy toilet bowl

Copper newsPeter Codling, a student at the Royal College of Art in London, has developed a new toilet bowl design (left), which allows the user to be in a more natural position during the defecation process than is assumed by current toilet bowl models – squatting, with his knees pressed to his stomach, writes The Daily Mail (Could this toilet make are you healthier?

Designer claims his loo prevents disease because it makes you squat).

Codling believes that if his brainchild, called "The Thinker" (Le Penseur), finds wide application, it will reduce the number of cases of rectal cancer, hemorrhoids, fecal incontinence, as well as heart attacks in the toilet.

As explained by the author of the development, the "squatting" position contributes to a more complete and easy emptying of the rectum, which means it excludes conditions for stagnation of feces and constipation, which are a key factor in the development of inflammatory bowel diseases and rectal cancer. In addition, facilitating the act of defecation means less stress during this process, and the need to push hard can cause hemorrhoids and even heart attacks.

Also, a pose with knees pressed to the stomach, due to the reduction of pressure on the pelvic floor, can help women suffering from fecal incontinence after a difficult birth. In addition, such a pose will avoid damage to the nerves controlling the bladder, uterus and prostate and thereby reduce the risk of developing various hernias and pelvic organ prolapses.

Currently, Codling is looking for investors to bring its development to the market.
