What is one of the best and least expensive purchases you
can make that benefits your whole family? Better yet, this
purchase will save you lots of money over time. Don’t laugh
when I tell you to buy a bidet!
In America our awareness of bidets is limited to bad jokes
and toilet humor, but millions of people all over the world
take them very seriously as devices that will benefit every
member of the family. In some countries like Argentina your
house actually loses value if it doesn’t have a bidet! In
Japan, over half the homes have high-tech bidets installed
for the use of the whole family.
The term “bidet” refers to several different devices that
use water to clean your perianal region (the area commonly
called your “crotch”). While a bidet is best known for
cleaning your derriere after defecation, some forms of bidet
can also be used for “spot cleaning” of your body without
requiring you to fully undress. Bidets have many medical
benefits and are a godsend for people with limited physical
mobility. They are also excellent aids for toilet training.
“ I chose marketing (the bidet) because I truly believe in
it. I have three units in my home, two at my office, one in
my motor home and on my boat. I potty trained my kids on it
and they refuse to sit on a cold seat."” Keith Chamblin,
Hygiene For Health (perhaps the most knowledgeable bidet
marketer in the U.S.)
So how does the bidet benefit every member of the family?
Mother - women are susceptible to a number of diseases in
their perianal region, such as vaginitis or cystitis, which
the bidet significantly helps. Bidets have known benefits
for pregnant women as well as their infants. Bidets also
benefit bowel dysfunction and hemorrhoids. During the
reproductive years it is normal for women to experience
mucous secretion from their vagina, and at times this makes
it difficult to achieve good menstrual cleanliness. Bidets
are an excellent means of improving this condition.
Father - men also suffer diseases in their perianal region
that bidets benefit. Men also suffer from bowl dysfunction
and hemorrhoids, perhaps more so due to the stress of their
lives. Bidets can also ease and improve the speed of
defecation. Many European men use bidets for spot cleaning
of their bodies when they do not have time to fully shower.
Mothers and Fathers both benefit from the improved physical
intimacy that the bidet can give, both before and after
intercourse.
Children - Infants and toddlers need a lot of bottom
cleaning and some bidets are excellent aids in this task.
There are specific types of bidets that have been developed
just for this task that parents rave about. Children find
toilet training easier and less traumatic when they have
ready access to a bidet. Some forms of bidet are useful for
cleaning soiled diapers or the soiled clothes of children in
the process of toilet training.
Grandparents - At some point it becomes difficult to wipe
after defecation, or some can’t comfortably reach the flush
lever. There are bidets that automatically wash, wipe, and
dry your behind thus relieving an embarassing or frustrating
situation. Aged skin is much more susceptible to infection,
and thus requires more cleanliness and more frequent
washing. Care givers have access to a whole variety of
devices that make their tasks easier and less demanding.
What do you spend on toilet paper in a year? Many bidets
completely eliminate the need for toilet paper. It is not
hard to see how a bidet can pay itself off and at some point
be saving the family money.
This short article just touches on the many benefits the
bidet offers modern families. Choosing the right bidet for
your families needs at the best price can be a difficult
task, despite a number of web merchants touting their own
form of bidet, but almost any bidet can benefit your family
and save you money over time.
