Can scientists prove the benefits of colon cleansing?

Well... not really. In fact, they argue about it. You'll just have to make your own mind up about it!

A major factor to consider is that...

A Little Regularity Is Not Good Enough

If you go to the doctor, they will say that having one bowel movement a day, or even one every two days or three days is normal. 'Normal' meaning it has no detrimental implications for health.

This cannot be right.

The colon - and the bladder - are the 'sewage systems' of the body. They need to be working efficiently to get waste products out of the body.

Why should food waste from one meal wait somewhere to be joined by food waste from several other meals - before being ejected from the body? Where's the hold-up? And Why? Or is it just that we've trained ourselves over the years by habit...? Yes- we have.

But though a measure of control over our anal sphincter muscles is socially necessary, we shouldn't take it to extremes, as we do.

When you feel the urge to go - you should go. And that urge should happen about as often as you eat. We help to attain this desirable state through colon cleansing.

A good rule of thumb is:

You Should Have The Same Number Of Bowel Movements A Day As Meals You Eat.

If you eat twice a day - two bowel movements. If you eat three times a day - three.

Animals don't hold on to their food waste for the day. Some may think of them as unsophisticated in this respect; but it is really 'good and healthy'. We didn't used to over-control our bowel movements when we were hunter-gatherers - we 'went' in the woods whenever we felt the urge.

A Major Benefit of Colon Cleansing

One of the big health benefits of colon cleansing comes from the fact that it can get people 'going' around as often as they eat. One herb to achieve this is Cascara Sagrada. This should be taken not - as years ago - in large amounts at night to produce a bowel movement next morning: but in smaller amounts and combined with other herbs, as in Step 1 of DNR's 2 Part Daily Digestive Support.

Another vital aid for colon cleansing is to use a good quality bowel flora supplement, which adds to the good bacteria present in the intestines. These 'good' bacteria are easily overwhelmed by the 'bad' type. Step 1 Herbal Support provides a daily dose of the Bifida bacteria (good bacteria) along with herbs. This is called a "probiotic" .Step 2  Fiber Cleanse includes necessary fiber and Fructooligosaccharide which feed the good bacteria. This is called a "prebiotic".

'Good' bowel bacteria assist colon cleansing and also:

-help the immune system work effectively
-counteract candida
-produce little gas. 

'Bad' bacteria:

-damage the immune system
-enable candida to grow too fast
-produce much gas.

The Importance Of '2-3 Times A Day'

From a common sense point of view, the colon cleansing regime discussed in this article means that waste is the body for the least time possible. Once it has been channeled through to the colon - it is excreted rapidly. So our vital 'waste disposal' system is working well, greatly benefiting health.

The Problem Of 'Once A Day' (or less)

If you are holding on to one meal's food waste to wait for the next meal before ejecting it - then one part of the colon must be acting as a reservoir, or 'holding tank'. This is not 'cleansing' as it should be, and it is not what the colon is designed for. The 'peristaltic' muscles in the colon wall are designed to keep rippling - rather like an earthworm moves - to keep the food waste moving towards, and out of, the exit - the anus.

This 'peristalsis' - the movement of the peristaltic muscles - is what colon cleansing appears to get working more efficiently. Once it is working - it tends to stay working. Which is why you must keep up colon cleansing for the whole course; then ease it off slightly; then leave it off altogether. This may take 9-12 months in total (occasionally longer). But once done, the colon will then happily work away by itself, with perhaps a couple of months help (further herbal support) every 18-24 months or so.

Isn't Going Three Times A Day Inconvenient?

It depends how you look at it.

I have used colon cleansing formulas for patients since 1988. I have seen the health of many of them improve - a whole diverse range of symptoms - through this method of healthcare. So I am absolutely convinced that colon cleansing supports good health.

In fact, NOT going three times a day is likely to make you unwell! So, view 'going three times a day' as being like breathing, eating, drinking and exercise. Once you get used to it you will accept it completely as part of a normal healthy lifestyle.

Do The Basic Things To Keep Yourself Healthy

Colon cleansing - along with liver cleansing - is one of the 'basics' of good health. Whatever other health measures you may be using; add on colon cleansing if you haven't done it already.

It will help you live longer, live healthier, and avoid the serious disease which kills most of us in older age.

I cannot guarantee this. I cannot scientifically prove it! But I don't need that - as I think it is just good common sense.
