Constipation and Colon Cleansing

by Rob on August 10, 2009

Digestion-1Colon cleansing can help greatly in treating constipation. I have just written an article on this topic – colon cleansing. and constipation.

Constipation is widespread in the Western world. I define constipation as “anyone who does not have a bowel movement as often as they eat”. That means a frequency of 2-3 times a day.

This frequency of bowel movements will surprise some. However, the body is made to have 3 bowel movements a day – as often as you eat. Saving up body waste to expel it once a day – often presented as the norm – is storing up trouble. Common sense tells us that retained waste, stored within the body and so kept at body temperature, is not healthy.

If you are a ‘once a day’ sort of person (or perhaps less frequently) you are storing food waste somewhere which is not designed to do. X-rays show that this is usually stored in a bulging part of the colon at the bottom left of the abdomen. This works after a fashion, but much better to have the descending colon work as it is meant to do – pass the food waste through as it comes, and you go to the loo 2-3 times a day.

A herbal colon cleansing programme can help you to change your bowel habits for the better – and retrain your bowel to get to a healthy 2-3 bm’s a day. I recommend you to do it; you only need to do it once.

If you are at that frequency anyway, a colon cleasning programme will help make sure you avoid constipation in the future, and will probably improve passage time of your food waste. Healthy passage time is around 10-12 hours on average. This can vary, for example with changes in exercise regime, travel, or periods.

The thing with food waste is: get it out as soon as you can. Don’t hold onto it! This is the healthiest approach.
