When it comes to urination, probably no one except infants said no. However, from the perspective of fitness and disease prevention, how many people dare to say that urination methods are scientific?
Squatting position
For men, if you can change to squatting urination like women, you will suffer less from cancer. It turns out that squatting urination can cause a series of muscle movements and related reflexes, accelerate the elimination of intestinal waste, shorten the retention time of feces in the intestine, and reduce the reabsorption of carcinogens such as hydrogen sulfide, indole, and fecal odor, thus protecting the intestinal mucosa from the toxicity of carcinogens. Relevant survey data show that the cancer rate of men who urinate by squatting is 40% lower than that of men who urinate by standing, which is one of the mysteries of the low incidence rate of bowel cancer of Indian men who are accustomed to squatting.
Once an hour
There is no rule as to when and how often a person should urinate. The customary practice is to go to the toilet when the bladder is full. But now it has been said that if you don't want to become a bladder cancer patient, you should remember the latest advice of medical experts: urinate once an hour, regardless of whether you have the intention to urinate.
Experts from the National Institute of Toxicology of the United States explained that the possibility of bladder cancer is proportional to the time that urine stays in the bladder. It turns out that there is a carcinogenic chemical in urine, which can damage the muscle fibers of the bladder, destroy its cells, and promote its carcinogenesis. The researchers compared the urine excreted every hour with the urine excreted every 2-3 hours. The latter contains a lot of carcinogens, so it is recommended to urinate once every hour to effectively reduce the risk of bladder cancer.
Defecate residual urine
If the urine cannot be discharged completely, it is easy to induce urinary tract infection, which becomes a major cause of disease. How can we discharge the residual urine? Experts introduce several techniques:
After urinating, squeeze the perineum between the scrotum and anus with your fingers. This can not only excrete residual urine, but also benefit people with prostatitis. Frequent anal lifting can enhance the contractility of perineal muscles and urethral muscles and promote the discharge of residual urine as soon as possible. It is also helpful to treat premature ejaculation!
