Get on the SQUAT team!

"Blame it on toilets as we know them. Thrones, they have been called. Turns out we should squat, not sit.

"In a 2003 study, 28 healthy people volunteered to time themselves doing their business in three alternate positions: sitting on a standard toilet, sitting on a low toilet, and squatting. They not only recorded how long it took them, but also how much effort it took. Squatting, the study concluded, takes less time and effort."
