The Importance of Regular Colon Cleansing
It is no secret that colon cleansing positively impacts a person's overall health. What many Americans do not know is that an unhealthy colon leads to a number of health problems, not just constipation. An unclean colon can cause cancer, disease, weight gain, and even death. Over 70 million Americans suffer from colon related problems. This number does not even include the number of people who do not find their problems severe enough to consult a doctor.
How to know if your colon needs a cleanse:
The first red flag of an unhealthy colon is constipation. A healthy adult will have two bowel movements every day. The first will be early in the day; this movement should be effortless and quite large (2-4 feet in length). The second movement could be significantly smaller but equally effortless. If you require a lot of time or energy to create a bowel movement, or you find yourself making less than 2 movements a day, you are in need of a cleanse.
With today's diet options, it has become nearly impossible to eat a proper diet to maintain colon health. Foods with high amounts of fiber have been replaced with high gluten sticky proteins. This coupled with high acidic content of the American diet, creates a thick, pasty glue inside of our intestines. Many examples of this thick paste can be viewed at the site below. Please be warned that the images are graphic and should not be view by people with a weak stomach.
Our digestive system was never designed to handle these types of foods. However, we cannot be expected to stop eating. That is why colon cleansing has become so important. Over time, your colon can become partial blocked, distorted, stressed, or dysfunctional from poor eating habits. Alcohol and drug use also plays a large role in compromising your intestinal health.
There are many products on the market that can help you maintain colon health, some require you to take a pill every single day like OxyPowder - some require only a 7 day treament per season like Almighty Cleanse. Alternatives can require vigorous regimens of fasting and homemade remedies.
Regardless of the product you use, cleansing is vital to your overall health and should be considered by every health conscious individual. A preemptive strike to colon blockage is the best bet, but if you are experiencing severe pain or discomfort related to your colon do not attempt to try a cleanse product, seek the guidance of your doctor first and foremost.
