Also known as the large intestine, the colon is one of the most
important organs of the digestive system. Cleansing of this part of
the digestive system is very crucial to good health. This practice of
cleaning has been around since ancient Greece.
However, there are debates regarding
whether this cleaning process should be done manually for improving
the system or the digestive system automatically eliminates
unnecessary materials from the body. And, there are no widespread
researches to completely prove the benefits of colon cleansing by
taking different supplements.
Nonetheless, some of the methods of
colon cleansing are claimed to be beneficial for the body regarding
issues such as irregular bowel movements or constipation and it is
also believed that this process can reduce the risk of colon cancer.
Other benefits assumed by the practitioners of colon cleansing
include better digestion, increase in energy, weight loss. But, as
stated earlier, there lacks sufficient studies to validate the
advantages.
However, it is also important to be
aware of the side effects of the colon cleansing process. Some of the natural ways of colon
cleansing include drinking six to eight glasses of lukewarm water
every day or eating food such as watermelons, cucumber, lettuce which
are rich in high in water content. Foods that are rich in fiber can
help to maintain a healthy colon too. Other methods include taking
herbal teas, adding probiotics to your food, or increasing the
consumption of resistant starches.
One of the supplements that work in the
cleansing of the colon is Colosan powder. This bowel management tool
oxidizes and cleanses the colon with oxygen. The Colosan powder helps
in removing the putrefaction in the colon and increases the
consumption of the nutrients in the colon. The oxygen released with
the consumption of the power with abundant water removes the
undesirable waste accumulated in the digestive tract and maintains a
healthy digestive system. Colon cleansing can also be done
through colon irrigation by colonic hygienists or colon
hydrotherapists. This process involves flushing gallons of water in
your rectum through a tube by using a low-pressure pump or a
gravity-based reservoir. Along with the water, unnecessary fluids and
waste will be excreted from your body.
It should be noted that colon cleansing
is a very delicate process and it should be done with proper
instruction. Some of the potential risks of the
colon cleansing process, whether natural or by using supplements
include the removal of fluids and subsequently leading to
dehydration. The process can also create an imbalance of electrolytes
such as sodium and potassium. Other effects include nausea, vomiting,
cramping, among others. So, it is highly advisable to consult
the doctor first before opting for any of the above methods.
