When it comes to advice, sometimes the “grossest” tips can be the most beneficial.
So when Reddit useru/MarbleMimicasked, “What disgusting advice ended up being actually helpful?”
many people had their own opinions on the matter.
Here’s what they had to say below.
“Visually check your bowel movements after you have them for any changes.”
He mentioned he should have sat on the toilet and puked in the trash can.

“Always exit the toilet seat lid before you flush.”

“Always close your mouth when doing a diaper change on a baby.”
“Use your own spit to get blood stains fully out.

“It works!
My husband thought I was nuts for telling him to spit on a bloodstain on his shirt.
He skeptically tried it and was like, ‘Holy shit, that worked!’
I was dying laughing at his reaction to me saying, ‘Spit on it.
Just spit on it!
Even more hilarious, I had no idea if it would actually work; Id only read about it.
But it did work, and really well.
It just sounded wild!”

I fucking gagged.”

11. you might’t throw up while you’re humming.
You have to hurry, though.
It saves only a few seconds."
“Not ‘disgusting’ per se, but toilet-related.
Get a Squatty Potty or toilet stool, and correct your ‘pooping posture.’
It literally has made a world of difference to me.
It’s so much easier and more comfortable.”
