If you want to give your body some help, then detoxing your body can be a very good thing both physically and mentally.
There are so many products in the market that can help you but it is always best to go with natural colon cleansing which means choosing a product that has not got any synthetic ingredients in it. You will find many great products in your local health food store or otherwise you can search online but remember to put the word ‘natural’ into your search terms.
The thing is that over time your colon becomes impacted with toxins which your body has failed to excrete. Over time this could mean suffering from constipation or even more serious problems. It doesn’t help if our diet includes lots of processed foods that our bodies have more difficulties digesting and processing.
Natural Fruit Cleanse
One of the best ways to do a natural colon cleanse is to eat fresh unadulterated fruit. Just eating fresh fruit say every morning up until lunch will help your body cleanse itself. This is because fresh fruit or fresh fruit juice is easily absorbed by the body and helps to naturally cleanse your intestines. Just imagine, fruits are so diverse and plentiful and taste great and you are doing your body a favor as well!
You could also go a step further and do a fruit cleanse over several days. This means only eating fruit and/or fruit juice over a period of time. You can also drink water and herbal teas. If you can do this for even three days, you are a big step into helping your body dispose of that toxin build up.
Fruit and Vegetable Cleanse
Another simple cleanse would be fruit or fruit juice in the morning and a vegetable drink at lunchtime. This could mean vegetable juice or simply putting fresh vegetables through a blender. You can finish up the day with a salad. This way you are just ingesting pure fruits and vegetables and this will give your body a great way of detoxifying as well as de-stressing from all those foods that are much more difficult to deal with, like meat and dairy.
Other Natural Colon Cleanses
Flaxseed or psyllium husks are also great to help move along your digestive foods in your colon. The easy way to do this is to put several teaspoons of flaxseed or the psyllium husks into a glass and then cover with water (it’s a good idea to add more water than just covering the seeds). Leave the seeds to soak overnight and in the morning you will find that they have swelled. I like to add some natural yoghurt for flavor but you can just drink it down as it is. It’s best taken first thing on wakening – definitely on an empty stomach. You will soon find you will have to visit the bathroom… It’s also important to remember to drink lots of water during the day as well to help move things along.
Fennel seeds are also an effective colon cleanse methods. It’s always good to have fennel tea on hand. If you drink it once a day, you are being good to your colon.
