Why we picked it
Raising your knees changes the angle of the bowel; in a small study most people who used one found going easier and quicker.
What the evidence says, and what to check
Raising the feet on a stool while seated on a standard toilet straightens the angle of the rectum. In a small prospective study, most participants reported faster and more complete bowel movements with less straining. Source: Modi et al., Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2019, via PubMed.
Interactions: None. Safe alongside any medication.
