Why It’s Good to Colon Cleanse

The colon or large intestine is the last stage of the digestive process and intimately connected to the health of all other systems in the body. When stagnation occurs in this region all other organs feel the consequences. Over time this can cause a number of health related side effects, including various digestive problems, inflammations and diseases. Chronic blockage in the colon can also deeply affect our thoughts, attitudes, moods, sleep patterns and emotions.

The colon can be compared to the foundation of a house, if you do not have a solid structure at the bottom the rest of the house is on shaky ground. Because the primary job of the colon is to absorb vitamins, nutrients, salts and water from the foods we eat and drink, it is important that we have clean healthy tissues lining the wall of the large intestine to obtain the proper amount of nutrition and expel any excess waste or toxins the body does not need.
For those with a past or current diet of eating low quality foods high in trans fats, additives, preservatives and other unpronounceable ingredients, you could most likely use a little house cleaning in this area. In addition, we all take in environmental toxins on a daily basis, so it is important even for the healthy eater to do periodic colon cleansing at least twice a year and eat some of the foods recommended below to assist the process of detoxification on a regular basis.



Top Superfoods that Clean the Colon

Aside from drinking plenty of water, fasting, enemas and colon hydrotherapy, all of which can be extremely beneficial for maintaining a super healthy colon, here are some of our favorite superfoods we recommend adding to the diet. 1) Aloe vera gel - An excellent polysaccharide-rich food to use for colon maintainence. It is a gentle, living food laxative, relaxing and nourishing the stomach and colon membranes in a gentle, nurturing way. More on aloe here.

2) Chia or Flax seeds - These seeds are digestive aids producing a gelatinous substance that, when soaked in water, soothes the intestinal tract and normalizes bowel movements. Soaked chia seeds or flax can be blended into smoothies or drinks.
3) Psyllium husk - This is a fibrous seed from the plantain species. You can buy psyllium powder and mix it with water or blended drinks to help promote regular bowel movements.
4) Raw fiber - This includes eating plenty of whole, raw fruits and vegetables high in enzymes needed for optimal digestion and assimilation of nutrients.

5) Super Juicing - Drinking raw, organic freshly pressed juice, high in chlorophyll from leafy green vegetables, is one of the most beneficial ways to clean out toxins and nourish colon health.

6) Milk thistle seed - Primarily known as a liver cleansing herb/seed, milk thistle is also helpful for stimulating digestive enzymes and breaking down fats in the foods you eat, acting as a mild laxative especially for those eating a high fat diet.
7) Sauerkraut - one of the major benefits of raw cultured vegetables or sauerkraut is that it helps to break down, not only the foods you eat with it, but the undigested waste material that is potentially trapped inside the walls of the intestinal tract. It is also a natural probiotic-rich food. See more about sauerkraut and how you can make your own at home.

8) Pau d’arco - Pau d'arco (Tabebuia avellanedae) is a rain forest bark that is considered to be an analgesic, antioxidant, anti-parasitic, anti-microbial, anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and laxative... all in one. It is an excellent choice for its colon cleansing affects and makes a delicious herbal tea.


Colon Cleansing Super Supplements

Here are some of the best natural products to help maintain a superhealthy colon.

  1. Digestion Enhancement Enzymes, by Healthforce Nutritionals - Most people suffer from the lack of sufficient metabolic enzymes. This condition causes your food to be only partially digested, leading to excess waste accumulation and toxic effects in the body, preventing full nutrient intake from the foods you eat. This digestive enzyme supplement helps to break down your foods into digestible, absorbable fuel and nutrition. Digestion Enhancement Enzymes
  2. Intestinal Drawing Formula, by Healthforce Nutritionals - On occasion we like to use this product for deeper cleansing of any possible waste accumulation in the intestinal tract. You can take it for periods of time to pull out and eliminate stored toxins. It is perfect for someone doing a cleanse and especially helpful to use with zeolite to rid the body of heavy metals, plastics or other chemicals. Intestinal Drawing Formula


  3. Primal Defense, by Garden of Life - These are tiny micro flora organisms that, with the help and innovation of science, can be captured in powdered form. They are easily absorbed into the body and digestive tract, proliferating into the billions and balancing the often over acidic conditions of the intestinal ecosystem. Primal Defense is an excellent brand of soil based organisms that is, in our opinion, one of the best available. Primal Defense
