Colon Cleansing Improves your General Health

An unhealthy colon has the potential to affect our general health, since it affects all other organs in our body. When our colon is unhealthy, it is filled with mucoid plaque and toxins. It is clogged, which leads to constipation. Unhealthy colons are often a by-product of modern, American living, with our bad diets, poor lifestyles, and bad living conditions.

We Americans tend to eat too much protein, which leads to too much acid, which harms the colon and depletes necessary minerals and electrolytes from our bodies. Many of us also tend to overeat, which results in an overuse of enzymes and an overworked colon.

In addition, the foods we eat harm our colons. Processed food is a big culprit; we eat foods that were not meant to be eaten by any human. Healthy colons result in healthy lifestyles; with a clean colon, many of the ailments we experience simply go away.

Pro- Colon Cleansing- Those in the camp of pro colon cleansing say that they regularly colon cleanse to detoxify themselves of all the toxic build up that naturally occurs in all of our bodies. They say that since our colon system is a intricate maze of tubes, it is easy for fecal matter to get caught in there. Once there, it can remain and greatly affect our overall health.

Con- Colon Cleansing- Those opposed-mostly in the physician world-say that our bodies were designed to be able to cleanse themselves our as is, and that cleansing them with some other manner can strip the protective lining of the colon and make the colon more vulnerable to trapped toxins.
