The Colon Cleanse
So, why do we need colon cleansing? One word…
Toxins.
If you are thinking about a colon cleanse you’re probably suffering from some sort of ailment, whether it’s constipation, acne, candida, brain fog, or just a constant feeling of sluggishness. Most likely, that ailment is related some way to the colon.
You see, the colon is one organ that indirectly and directly affects all the other organs in the body. When it’s clogged up, the liver can’t do its job properly. When the liver can’t work efficiently, the kidney suffers, etc. So to start curing our symptoms and to get better, we must first start cleansing the colon.
The truth is our colon, for most of us, is in an unhealthy state, filled with mucoid plaque, toxins, and a complete mess. Our colon is clogged, leading to constipation. How did we reach this state? Through a combination of a bad diet, poor lifestyle choices, and bad living conditions.
Take, our diet for instance. Most Americans consume too much protein. Protein is necessary, and completely healthy, but too much can lead to over-acidity, which is not good. An overabundance of acid in the body can take a toll on the colon, as it depletes necessary minerals and electrolytes from our body. This then leads to the inability of the colon to tackle harmful bacteria, and toxins.
Many of us also overeat. We all know weight gain is a huge problem, but that notwithstanding, eating too much in one sitting can have serious long-term effects. Ideally, we shouldn’t eat more than a handful of food in 1 meal. Overeating leads to an overuse of enzymes, and can cause our colon to work even harder.
Of course, I haven’t even mentioned the “food” we eat in a daily basis. Cookies, cakes, processed foods, chips, sweets, etc. all were not meant to be eaten by man. Eating unnatural foods is a big reason why there is mucoid plaque stuck in our colon, and why we all should consider colon cleansing as a normal part of our health and wellbeing programs
Our environment is also another major cause for an unhealthy colon. Unless you live with the Eskimos, you probably are subjected to pollution, secondary smoking, harmful chemicals, pesticides, etc. every single day. Our immune system has to work overtime to rid our body of these nasty chemicals. This weakening of the immune system leads to a weakening of the colon as well.
Colon cleansing is a safe, alternative method to treat many of our symptoms and problems. It’s not just for people with constipation, but for anyone who wishes to feel better, and strengthen their inner organs. Cleansing is necessary to rid our body of toxins that accumulate as a result of an unhealthy diet, environmental pollution and chemicals, and a constant use of antibiotics.
Bowel cleansing is not just about cleansing the colon. It’s about indirectly cleansing our small intestines, large intestines, and stomach as well.
Following a Colon cleanse program you are creating an environment for permanent change in your life by being aware of your diet and the effects of your environment.
