A colon cleanse is recommended to remove the waste accumulated in a clogged colon. It is a somewhat controversial topic and many health practitioners do not recommend it. This article discusses what it is and why some people opt to do the cleanse and what the different options are. The main goal of bowel cleansing is a healthy bowel or colon
The bowel or colon is one of the primary systems for the excretion of
toxins. The colon is the last part of your food processing / digestive
system. It makes sense then that if this part of the chain is clogged
and blocked (constipated), that any other organ detox, cleanse or flush
you do is going to result in the excreted toxins being recycled back
into your system because they cannot get out via the bowel.
Almost everyone can benefit from a bowel cleanse, it'll dramatically improve your health and well-being. If you eat a typical Western diet low in nutrients and high in processed foods with little fiber or goodness, it is quite possible for you to have up to 8 undigested meals of food and waste sitting in your colon. No wonder people complain of feeling bloated.
This all contributes to the growing frequency of constipation.
Constipation is generally attributed to a low fiber diet and lack of sufficient water, which cause our fecal matter to become condensed and compressed. The problem with a constipated system is that the toxins that have come through your digestive system take a long time to get out so they sit in the bowel. The longer this muck stays in the bowel or colon, the more the proteins start to putrefy, the fats become rancid and the carbohydrates ferment. Flatulence is inevitable after all that. These gases trying to escape can be reabsorbed into the blood stream and cause havoc with your health. With all this food rotting in the intestines, it exposes the body to the risk of developing disease.
People choose to Bowel Cleanse for a number of different reasons. It's a great way for the way of quick evacuation of accumulated feces and therapeutic enemas can bring remedies directly to the bowel. Other reasons include:
A colon cleanse is a procedure that may involve the use of different products, an enema and some fasting. It will definitely involve drinking lots of liquids in the form of fresh vegetable or fruit juices and pure water. Colonic Irrigation is also an option.
