Remarkable Outcome From Having Colon Cleansed

A real story was in light for many days after a man death in United States, his autopsy was performed and the report which was obtained was highly astonishing that it was found that his colon consisted of 40 pounds of fecal matter in it.

Now the question that comes in everybody's mind that how much undigested food and fecal matter is being held in your colon?

When we imagine of colon cleansing we have to keep in mind that the body has seven channels of elimination. Just like you would clean your entire house you should also start a regimen of cleansing all of your channels of elimination. These channels are the liver, lungs, lymphatic system, blood, skin, colon and kidneys. A colon cleanse which focuses on only one of the channels of elimination is akin to deciding that you are only going to clean the closets in your house.

A constipated colon is one in which the transit time of food is more than 24 hours. Transit time is the length of time it takes for food to enter the mouth and exit the rectum. The basic principle of good digestive health is that you should put food in and within 24 hours that food should come out as excretory matter.

The naturopathic standpoint is that the longer the transit time of food, the longer these toxins stay in our digestive tract which permits proteins to putrefy, fats to get rancid, and carbohydrates to ferment.

Regardless how you look at it this cannot be healthy for your body. The longer your body is exposed to these toxins in your intestines, the greater the risk of developing disease.

If you have only one bowel movement per day, you will have all of the other meals that you ate over the last 24 hours putrefying in your intestines. This is called toxic build up. It is poisoning from within. The inability to purge toxins from our systems.

What we all need to comprehend is that the reason why constipation is dangerous to our health is that our bodies are designed to absorb whatever is in the digestive tract. If you put good healthy nutrition there the body will absorb it. Likewise, if you put putrefying, toxic waste there the body will absorb that as well.

The best way to initiate a cleansing program is by colon cleansing and maintaining optimum colon health.
