Should you Colon Cleanse?

Yeah good question should you colon cleanse and if so why? So many site are telling you to do it but maybe not explaining that much - probably feels like they just want to shove some stuff down your throat to get to your wallet! The question should be answered before you even think about using a colon cleanser.

Unfortunately I need to bore you with a little bit of biology and some explanations before we can get to the answer. Here goes:

As we go about living we eat and we need the good stuff in the food to be absorbed by our bodies and the bad stuff gotten rid of. Over time our intestines (colons) can be come a little overwhelmed and inefficient.

Diets with large amounts meats and fried foods with little fibre and water leave us especially vulnerable to an unhealthy colons - this is probably the diet most of us live on. TV dinners, Mcdonalds and all that.

The colon can be come clogged / 'impacted' with fecal matter, this means we could potentially be re-absorbing toxins, 'keeping' bad bacteria, as well as failing to excrete properly; leading to constipation. So its in our best interest to be able to eliminate waste efficiently.

Apart from avoiding / curing constipation and avoiding disease, cleansing of the colon also results in a number of other benefits:

To some the weight loss claim might seem to good to be true -its not think about this; if you've been living of mc'ds and not having even fibre, you are moving about with undigested food stuck in your colon. Some experts claim its possible for someone to even carry around upto 20 pounds of it!

So you have the answer - YES, you should cleanse your colon.
