Drink Hot Liquid to Get Hot
If you don’t want to poop at the wrong time, you will probably try to plan ahead and go to the bathroom before this long meeting. But how do you get yourself to poop on command? Try a hot drink – coffee will work , but tea or even hot water will work too.
This tip comes from World of Runners because there are a few worse moments to hear the call of nature than when you are in the middle of a run, and running is notorious for relaxing your gut . Dr. Felice Schnoll-Sassman, gastroenterologist, explains why hot drinks work:
“The warm liquid acts as a vasodilator,” she says. “It dilates the blood vessels in the digestive system and helps increase blood flow and activity in the gastrointestinal tract.”
Schnoll-Sussman advises runners to have a hot drink in the morning and then sit on the toilet for a while. “Just sitting there for a few minutes can make you want to leave, even if you don’t feel like you should be doing it right away.”
