Six Simple Steps To a Healthy and Clean Colon

By Graeme Dinnen


There are a few things you need to know about what's taking place in your lower bowel and what you can do to help matters.

Raise Your Colon Transit Time:

Bowel waste products are a toxic, putrefying, stagnant mess that can do considerable damage to the gut. Ideally you want this waste to travel through your intestines as soon as they have assimilated the essential nutrients from your food. The key to this is eating enough fibre. In areas where people eat plenty of fibre, transit times can be as little at 15-18 hours. In several western countries, ithe transit average is more like 35 - 38 hours.

Bulk Your Stools:

Your stools should be soft and smooth, rather like the consistency of peanut butter. You should never strain to finish a bowel movement. Relax until it comes out easily. Insoluble and soluble fibre both help to add moisture and bulk to your stools so they pass more quickly.

Balance Your Digestion:

Regular and healthy bowel movements usually result from a balance between stools that are neither too loose nor too firm. If dysentery ever occurs, specific kinds of natural soluble fibre,eg apple pectin, could help gently eliminate occasional symptoms without causing problems with bowel problems later on.

Eliminate Heavy Metals & Toxins

Naturally-occurring fibres and phytonutrients help eliminate putrefying fecal mattter and heavy metals from your intestine before they are reabsorbed into your body's tissues.

Avoid All Laxatives:

Artificial chemical laxatives aren't the answer. They irritate the gut lining forcing fecal matter out. After a while the bowel cannot be relied on to eliminate on its own and you become dependant on laxatives. Laxatives have side-effects that may increase a tendency toward constipation and block the body's ability to absorb nutrients. There are ancient herbal remedies available from the area formerly known as Ancient Phoenicia that are gentle yet purgative to blockages in the colon.



Restore Your Internal Flora:

If you've regularly taken chlorinated water or antibiotics, your intestinal flora has likely been disrupted. Antibiotics don't just kill the bad bacteria; they indiscriminately wipe out all bacteria including the good! You may need to supplement with probiotics to restore the healthy bacteria in your gut. These beneficial abdominal floras perform a wide range of vital functions for your body and keep the bad bacteria from taking over.
