A kidney doctor from Singapore took to TikTok to demonstrate a guaranteed way to ease constipation, by pooping in a specific position.
It involves crossing one leg over your lap, resting your foot on the opposite thigh and rotating your torso to face the back of the toilet.
You put your one foot in
You put your one foot out
You put your one foot in
And you shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey
And you turn yourself around
That's what it's all about
Dr Daria Sadovskaya, who hails from Singapore, posted her video in the spring and since then it has garnered more than 26 million views, with many saying the revised sitting position has been extremely effective at helping ease their constipation.
The 29-year-old nephrologist told millions the revised position ’will help you to poop fast.’
Constipation is more than just uncomfortable and sometimes painful. Some studies have shown links between the common condition that affects around four million Americans, and an increased likelihood of being diagnosed with colorectal cancer.
