Have You Ever Considered That You're Pooping Wrong? It turns out that Western civilization has been pooping wrong for generations. According to scientists at the Stanford University Pelvic Floor Clinic, we're meant to squat, not sit (which makes sense if you think about our ancestors' bathroom habits). Squatting relaxes your muscles in just the right way to create optimal inner plumbing movement and can potentially combat some pretty serious diseases like Colitis and Colon Cancer. Now you can poop right with Squatty Potty, a step stool that allows you to sit on the toilet with perfect squat posture. Despite being full of water-plopping sound effects, the ad is pretty convincing.
Experts Say This Mental Trick Can Improve Your Focus In a world where technology rules and a never-ending news cycle provide constant stimulation, it’s a rarity to spend even a few minutes a day not really doing anything. The side effects of speeding through your to-do list without a moment’s rest are all too common: trouble focusing, stress, anxiety, and a cluttered mind. Sound familiar? Do something physical during your breaks! — The Pomodoro Technique® In 2011, researchers at the Mayo Clinic were baffled why, when fed the same diet, some people in a weight loss study gained pounds while others didn’t. So they made their participants wear “magic underwear” that tracked every movement participants made, whether lying, walking, standing or sitting. What they found was that participants who didn’t gain weight were “unconsciously moving around” more than their sitting counterparts. They were finding ways to exercise, simply by getting up and going to the bathroom, taking the stairs, gabbing on the phone while standing and walking in their lunch hour. According to the New York Times, on average, “the subjects who gained weight sat two hours more per day than those who hadn’t.” A similar study reached an even more significant, and some might say frightening, conclusion: those who sit too much can shave years off their life.

Use This Trick to Figure Out if You Smell Sometimes, you kind of have to wonder how people with chronic B.O. get to that point. After all, you reason, if you smelled, you’d do something about it — you’d take more showers, or switch to a more hard-core deodorant, or to whatever you needed to do to avoid being That Person. But the problem with this line of thinking, as Patrick Allan recently explained in Lifehacker, is that outside of extreme olfactory circumstances — like, I don’t know, spending the day shoveling manure — most people can’t actually smell themselves. “The receptors in your nose that would normally respond to your own particular brand of smells practically shut down after being bombarded with the same scents for so long,” Allan wrote. “Basically, your nose goes numb to your own stank so you don’t go mad.” It’s the same reason why you can’t smell your own home: Your sense of smell is quick to adapt and slow to reset.
