There is a veritable fiber crisis. All these grifters and wellness charlatans pushing protein like it’s the elixir of life, when what most of us really need more of is fiber and water.
I dare anyone curious to try eating some bran cereal or granola for breakfast, lunch on or with whole grains (eg whole grain bread sandwich), and more whole grains as part of dinner – with at least a serving of fruit/veg with all meals (fruit in cereal, piece of fruit or Tupperware of crunch veg with lunch, side of spinach/brocc for dinner), while drinking as close to ~3 liters of water as you can.
You will almost certainly fart more, but you’ll also likely have the best poops of your life if you’re not used to fiber.
Colorectal cancers and heart disease are decimating us – afaik fiber is proven to be beneficial against both.

Fiber is absolutely the way to go. Since I started to eat weetabix every morning and ryvitas every lunch, my digestive system has been working like a dream. One or two times every day, a few minutes in the bathroom each time. If I break that routine on a weekend/holiday and don’t go for a day or two I feel horrible.

Note: They word it that way to produce clicks. It’s not +46%. If your initial risk was 2% is would now be ~3%.

My dad used to take the newspaper to the bathroom and he wouldn’t come out for half an hour. I think I’ll be fine.
Time to wipe.

I feel like this was written so that people spend less time on the toilet at work.

If that was true I’d have had one by 1998 when reading magazines and shampoo bottles on the toilet. Hell my legs went numb many times then, never had that happen with a smart phone.

The article recommends leaving your phone outside the bathroom because of radiation. I don’t trust the findings or method of this group.

Unless you want to learn what an anoscope is firsthand (firsthole?) pay attention to this article.

„Avoid taking your phones in the bathroom, as **it can expose you to radiation** and increase your chances of haemorrhoids.“
Nonsense. The entire article can be thrown out as unreliable because of this one unsupported claim. Either the author decided to throw that in for fluff, or we can safely assume the entire article is garbage.
There is no supporting evidence that we are exposed to harmful radiation from our phones, which emit non-ionizing radiation.
They’re not wrong in general about phone use in restrooms, though. But people used to bring books and magazines, so it isn’t some new phenomenon.
