Do any of these colon cleansing pills actually work for losing weight?
Before anyone chimes in with "the only way you’re going to lose weight is diet and exercise"…I know that…thank you. I am already dieting and exercising 3-4 times a week. I am just looking for something to give me that extra little boost and speed up the process, and I was wondering if any of these colon cleansing pills or acai berry or anything like that actually helps to speed weight loss.

Is Colon Cleansing the answer to fecal buildup, constipation, bloating, and stomach pain?
I was recently told that I was full of crap! I pondered this question for a moment or two, then headed straight to you, the insightful ones.
So how is one to know if they are truly in need of a cleansing, or as what a colonic preveyor may refer to as detoxification.
Now, if my schooling taught me anything, it was that the colon, also called the large intestine follows the small intestine and comprises the end of the gastrointestinal tract. Now, we learned that most nutrients from food are absorbed in the small intestine. This would entail the colon to absorb water and salts from the stool while it pushes it along through the rectum. Correct?
Wouldn’t laxatives work just the same? They promote bowel movements, have been around for atleast 3892 Years!
Colon cleansing refers to a more invasive procedure of water and hoses stuck you-know-where. It’s not clear when this practice started.
It’s not poo in the toilet that ponders my couriosity, it’s the poo in me!

What are the risks of Acai Berry and the Colon Cleanser?
I’ve heard a lot about the acai berry supplements and the colon cleanser helping out so many people with their weight. I want to know what certain risks there are to trying it out. Also, if you are under the age of 18, can you still use the combination of both or is it very risky? Does this really work?

Oxy Cleanse Review
Oxycleanse is produced by Earth’s Bounty and takes a totally different approach to colon cleansing. Oxycleanse uses magnesium peroxide instead of psyllium husks or senna to cleanse your colon, it is therefore excellent for those that are gluten intolerant. This means the end to the side effects that some people have to endure such as stomach cramps and bloating. The magnesium peroxide produces oxygen which removes all the built up plaque, undigested food and mucous build up in the colon leaving it cleansed ready to digest your food properly, giving you weight loss, increased energy and a feeling of well being. Oxycleanse is safe to use on a regular basis.
Oxycleanse also contains vitamin C, an antioxidant and pro oxidant that neutralises free radicals and reduces inflammation.
Oxycleanse also contains Bioflavonoid Complex: Flavonoids are phytochemical compounds that come from fuits such as lemons, oranges, grapefruits, grape seeds, and other colorful fruits and vegetables. Flavonoids help to enhance the action of Vitamin C, together they can relieve inflammation, protecting against infection, improving circulation, lowering cholesterol levels, counteracting allergens, and in turn helping to prevent cancer.
Oxycleanse fans are many, most reviews are five star with a lot of people being impressed with how gentle this colon cleanser is. Customers who have previously not had very good results with fiber based colon cleansers find an oxygen based cleanser works very well.

Colon Cleanse Acai Berry
The acai berry has become one of the newest crazes in weight loss, especially when used in association with a colon cleanse. The acai berry burns excess calories in the body which leads to easily sustainable weight loss.
Some benefits of the acai berry include:
• Hunger suppressant : The natural energy provided from the acai berry means that your body doesn’t crave the salty and sugary foods. Without that craving we are less prone to binge eating, a major cause of weight gain.
• Metabolism regulator : As long as a healthy diet is maintained, the berry causes the body’s calorie consumption rate to naturally rise. Because of these extra calories being consumed by the body, the result is sustained weight loss. The calories being burnt are a result of extra fat lost, not water weight, which means that the weight loss is maintained and doesn’t come back easily.
• Energy booster : The body isn’t starving during the diet when you’re using acai berries so the energy levels stay up, as opposed to normal diets where the energy levels deplete.
When the acai berry is combined with the colon cleanse, the body can rid itself of extra pounds that have been sitting on the stomach area, which can knock off inches from the stomach almost instantly. It also improves food digestion which leads to better energy absorption.
The berry diet works best when combined with a natural colon cleanse, using foods which are high in fiber such as fruits and cereals. Flax seed is also a great source of fiber and a strong helper in the colon cleanse.
The use of these foods will help drain toxins from the body as well as helping in weight loss and digestion. The combination of these diets also helps reduce blood pressure and control cholesterol levels.

Master Cleanse Review
The Master Cleanse, also known as the Lemon Detox diet or the Maple Syrup Diet entails drinking a lemon and maple syrup concoction for a period of ten days. The idea is that the lemon drink will cleanse your body of all the mucus and plaque, leaving you with increased energy, free of toxins and hopefully quite a few pounds lighter!
The original Master Cleanser program is credited to Stanley Burroughs who created it in 1941, it was revamped by Peter Glickman who wrote Lose Weight, Have More Energy and Be Happier in 10 Days for the modern day cleanser.
Although there is limited proof, apart from users testimonials the Master Cleanse claims to remove toxins, cleanse the colon, get rid of cravings for junk food and of course help you lose weight – up to two pounds a day!
The recipe for the Master Cleanse drink is pretty straight forward:
2 Tablespoons of lemon juice (organic if possible)
2 Tablespoons of grade B maple syrup (organic if possible)
1/10 Teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
10 oz of filtered water
This makes one serve, and you are meant to drink between six and twelve servings per day for ten days.
You can expect to expel a lot of waste during the ten day cleanse – the mucoid plaque will come out in long rubbery pieces, often black and tarry in color. You may also pass gallstones, these are build ups of cholesterol and if left undisturbed these could block the bile ducts and can cause serious problems.
Getting rid of all this (there’s no other word for it but..) crap(!) will restore your natural health, cure many health problems and help you lose up to 20lbs of excess weight.
There is an E-book called The Master Cleanse Secret which gives more advice about the Master Cleanse diet, extras such as which foods you can eat while doing the diet including a protein which is one of the reasons the original diet is criticised. It also tells you how to make sure your metabolism does not slow down and also how to manage these side effects that you may encounter during your detox such as headaches and aches and pains.

Constipation
The medical definition of constipation is having fewer than three bowel movements a week, and severe constipation is when there is less than one bowel movement a week. If you have sudden onset constipation or if there is accompanying abdominal pain, cramp, nausea, vomiting or rectal bleeding it is essential to see a doctor immeditately as there could be a blockage in the digestive system which could be caused by a tumor of the colon or by fecal impaction, where a stool has hardenend in the rectum and has caused a blockage.
If your constipation alternates with diarrhea then you could have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) when your bowel is not functioning properly.
The number of bowel movements that is considered normal is between three and twenty one per week. Though there are those people who say you should have one bowel movement for every time you eat a meal, so for most people three per day.
Constipation may be infrequent stools, hard small stools, difficulty in passing stools (having to strain to pass a stool) or even just the sense of incomplete emptying. If you feel this is your condition you could benefit from colon cleansing. All colon cleansers contain ingredients to make passing stools easier and will clear your digestive system and start you on the path to regularity.
After you have done your colon cleanse you need to evaluate your diet. You need to increase your fibre intake by eating more fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds and wholegrains. For some people even eating a lot of these is not enough and you will have to add a fiber supplement to your diet. Fiber combines with water inside your intestine and bulks up the stool making it soft and easier to pass.
Additional fibre supplements that you could add to your diet are psyllium husks contained in products such as Metamucil or Konsyl. A synthetic methyl cellulose such as Citrucel or a polycarbophil such as Equilactin or Konsyl Fiber.
The main thing is to find a fibre supplement that works for you. Start by adding a small amount to your diet, in a bowl of cereal or soup, and gradually add more until your bowel movements are easy and regular.

Colon Cleanse For Weight Loss
Can colon cleansing help with weight loss? Undeniably the answer is yes, for a variety of reasons:
The colon cleanse will remove a ton of waste out of your intestines. Mucoid plaque has accumulated over a period of years in your colon, loads of waste is just sitting there, hosting parasites and causing fatigue, aches and pains, headaches, flatulence, constipation and abdominal bloating. Just getting rid of this waste is losing you weight! Users report losing up to two pounds a day. You will feel lighter, emptier – no more bloated stomach, no more sluggish feeling.
A Colon Cleanse will restore the natural balance of your internal flora. This means you will have a normal balance of good bacteria in your gut, which will improve your digestion so food is processed more efficiently. Vitamins and minerals will be extracted from your food and your digestive system will become more efficient.
Cleansing your colon will relieve your body of all the effort it is currently expanding fighting parasites and other sickness caused by a toxic colon. Once all that waste has been removed your body will have more energy to increase your metabolism and give your energy to start a new exercise regime maybe??
A colon cleanse is an excellent “new start” – so don’t just colon cleanse, change your diet at the same time. Increase the amount of fruit and vegetables that you eat, add a quality protein to each meal, eat lots of whole grains and seeds and avoid any white processed products as they are what have led to your unclean colon in the first place.
If you are still not sure about colon cleansing, why not try one of the “free trials” that are about at the moment. That way you can find out if it is going to help you without spending any money!

Function Of The Colon
The colon is approximately five feet long and comes between the small intestine and the rectum which leads to the anus. In humans the colon consists of four sections: the ascending colon, the transverse colon, the descending colon, and the lastly the sigmoid colon. Partially digested food known as chyme, enters the colon from the small intestine and there the colon absorbs the water, salt and nutrients.
The colon muscles contract moving the partially digested food through the colon, it combines with mucus and bacteria on into the rectum where it becomes faeces. These contractions are controlled by hormones, nerves and impulses in the colon muscles. If the muscles do not work correctly the food does not get pushed through the colon properly and you may experience cramps, constipation, abdominal pain or bloating, diarrhoea or incomplete stools.
The colon is susceptible to several different disorders and diseases:
Colitis – the inflammation of the colon
Chron’s disease – where your body’s immune system attacks its own gastrointestinal system
Diverticulosis – where pockets bulge out of the colon wall
Colorectal cancer – thought to develop from polyps in the colon which develop into malignant growths
To avoid these disorders, try to keep your colon healthy by eating lots of fiber in the form of fresh fruits, vegetables and whole grains, nuts and seeds. If you have been neglecting your colon and it needs some TLC try a colon cleanse to get rid of any residual waste and restore the natural balance of internal flora.
Your Colon – more information
Remember, a properly functioning colon can digest nutrients better, digest minerals faster, absorbs vital molecules better, helps your immune system receive all the dietary support it needs to function properly and even does a better job.

Colon Cancer
Cancer of the rectum and colon is the fourth leading type of cancer in females and the third leading type of cancer in males. The incidence of colorectal cancer (as it is known) is notably higher (and still increasing) in the Western world as opposed to Asia and Africa.
Cancer is not one disease it is a group on at least one hundred different diseases. It affects the cells of our body by causing them to become abnormal and they start to divide with no order or control. The cells keep on dividing forming a mass of extra tissue known as a tumour. The tumour can be malignant or benign.

A benign tumour can be removed, does not spread around the body and does not return. Generally speaking a benign tumour is not considered a threat to life. Cancer is known as a malignant tumour. The cancer cells invade organs and damage tissues, they can enter the blood stream and travel around the body invading other organs. When the cancer spreads, the site of the original disease is called the primary and where ever else it starts in the body is known as the secondary locations. The spread around the body of cancer cells is known as metastasis.
The colon and the rectum make up the large intestine or large bowel. Polyps can develop in the colon and rectum – these polyps are benign groups of cells and if discovered during a colonoscopy they can be easily removed. If they are not removed it is believed that colorectal cancer develops from these polyps.
If the tumour develops nearer the anus the symptoms may show as a change in bowel habits. Constipation or diarrhoea, the feeling of being unable to complete defecation satisfactorily, the reduction in the diameter of the stool or the change in shape of the stool may all be signs of a tumour. There may be bleeding from the anus or blood in the stools or an increase in mucus.
If the tumour goes unnoticed for a longer period of time the bowel can become blocked, this will lead to constipation, abdominal pain or distension and sometimes vomiting.
The most common place that colorectal cancer spreads to is the liver. This will eventually lead to jaundice and pain in the abdomen, and if the bile duct is obstructed pale stools.
Treatment of colorectal cancer depends on how long the disease has been present. If caught in the early stages it can be curable, if it has metastasized it is less likely to be cured.
The primary treatment is surgery where the tumour and as much surrounding tissue as necessary will be removed. Surgery is usually followed by chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) previously known as colitis, mucous colitis, spastic bowel, or spastic colon. There is no established link between IBS and cancer or any other inflammatory bowel disease such as Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis.
Although the symptoms of IBS vary from one person to another, the general ones are abdominal pain, bloating, sometimes constipation, with mucus in the stool and sometimes diarrhoea, which can be urgent and uncontrollable. Often the constipation and diarrhoea alternate, with symptoms that can subside for a few months and then return, or worsen over time.
At the moment no specific cause for IBS has been pinpointed. Sufferers seem to have a colon that is more sensitive than others to stress or certain foods. It is also possible that the immune system is also somehow involved.
When you have Irritable Bowel Syndrome the colon becomes spasmodic with strong muscle contractions that can come and go, and sometimes the colon can even stop working for a short time. If the contents of the colon move through it too quickly, the colon does not remove enough fluid from the food resulting in diarrhoea. Conversely, if the food moves too slowly through the colon too much liquid is removed from the food resulting in hard, dry stools and constipation.
If you think you have IBS keeping a diary of your symptoms, along with what you have eaten and any stressful situations is a good idea. When you see your doctor he will base his diagnosis mostly on your history. Diagnostic tests may be undertaken in order to rule out other possibilities. The tests could be testing of the stool sample, blood tests, and possibly x rays. By inserting a small, flexible tube with a camera on the end of it into the colon through the anus, the doctor can perform a colonoscopy and check on the state of the colon.
There is no cure for IBS, but there are many options available to treat the symptoms. You can also make changes to your diet and take steps to manage your stress. Fiber supplements or laxatives can be taken for constipation or Lomotil or loperamide (Imodium) to treat diarrhoea. An antispasmodic can be used to help control colon muscle spasms and to reduce any abdominal pain. Medications can affect different people in different ways, so there is no one medication or medications the will work for everyone who has IBS.

Colon Cleansing Diet
You can clean your colon by eating certain foods if you do not want to undertake a proprietary colon cleanser. Your colon cleansing diet should include foods that will clear the colon of debris and restore the internal flora to its natural balance.
You need to eat plenty of fibre in the form of fruit, vegetables, seeds, beans, nuts and whole grains. These foods, high in insoluble fibre sweep through your colon getting rid of plaque from all the nooks and crannies in your colon. It also helps improve the consistency of your stools improving elimination and preventing constipation. The soluble fibre dissolves in water and helps to restore the good bacteria in your gut, it also binds to cholesterol and helps it pass through the body.
Oats and flaxseed are two foods highest in soluble and insoluble fibre. You can add a tablespoon of flaxseed to your muesli for extra fibre.
Citrus, strawberries, apples, beans, peas, rice and barley are all high in soluble fibre and carrots, brussell sprouts, turnips, cauliflower, rye, brown rice, barley, cabbage, beetroots and apple (with the skin on) are all high in insoluble fibre.
Try to eat 20 to 35 grams of fibre per day: this should include five or six servings of fruit and vegetables and up to six servings of whole grains such as bread or pasta.
To increase the number of good bacteria in your gut you need to eat “live” foods such as yoghurt , kefir and miso. The most useful yoghurt products are those that contain acidophilus. These foods also neutralize toxins and stimulate the immune system.
Foods with a high level of chlorophyll such as spirulina, barley grass, alfalfa, wheatgrass and blue-green algae are excellent for colon cleansing.The chlorophyll soothes an irritated colon and heals any ttissues that are damaged in the digestive tract. It too helps the body to neutralize toxins and obtain more oxygen.
Water is an essential part of the colon cleansing diet. Drinking ample amounts of water prevents constipation and toxicity in the bowel and kidneys. You need to drink between six to 10 glasses a day. A useful guide is to drink half your weight in ounces. If you weigh 120 pounds (55 kilograms) for example , you would need to drink 60 ounces or two litres of water per day. It does not have to be just water, you can also drink herb tea or diluted fruit juices. Try not to drink caffeinated beverages as they dehydrate your body. Drink the water in between meals otherwise you dilute the vitamins and minerals contained in your food.
This diet should keep your colon clear of plaque and your internal flora well balanced. It should also prevent constipation, dehydration and give you plenty of energy.

Colon Cleanse Epsom Salts
You can use Epsom Salts as a colon cleanser but it is a rather severe way to go about things, so make sure you can stay near the toilet for the next few hours!!
Epsom Salts contains magnesium sulphate, one tablespoon of it contains about 35g of magnesium sulphate, the daily-recommended allowance of elemental magnesium is between 300-400 mg (milligrams) per day so one tablespoon is a lot! What many people do not realize is that ingesting too much Epsom salt can make you very sick and has sometimes resulted in death.
You should not use Epsom Salts internally if your have any of the following symptoms: stomach pain, vomiting, or nausea or are taking any of the following drugs: tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline, oxytetracycline, digoixin, and nitrofurantoin.
If you are going to use Epsom Salts as a colon cleanser make sure you are using salts meant for internal use. Although other instructions say use 3 to 4 tablespoons of Epsom Salts, I would recommend only using one teaspoonful in 20 fl ozs of water. And beware, it does take affect quickly and if is very effective!
An alternative to Epsom Salts is to use a colon cleansing product that has been formulated to gently clear out the colon, correct the balance of internal flora and leave your body ready to begin a healthy diet of high fibre foods including lots of fresh vegetables and fruit.

Diverticulitis
Diverticulitis is a condition that occurs when pouches bulge out of the colon and these pouches, known as diverticula become inflamed.
Diverticulosis, is when you have the pouches but they are not inflamed. Symptoms of diverticulosis are bloating, cramping and constipation. You may also get some bleeding and inflammation. If you are bleeding from the diverticula you will see bright red blood from your rectum. Even though the bleeding may be painless, it could be serious and you should see a doctor immeditaely.
Diverticulitis, is when the pouches have become inflamed. Symptoms are pain in the lower part of the abdomen, with a fever, nausea, vomiting and a change in your bowel habits. If you think you have diverticulitis you must see a doctor straight away.
Although the cause of diverticulitis is not totally agreed on, many doctors agree that a diet low in fiber is the cause. Fiber absorbs water and makes it easier to pass a stool. If you do not have enough fiber in your diet constipation is likely. Constipation means that you are likely to be straining to go to the toilet and this straining causes the pouches or diverticula to develop. If you are not clearing your colon fully, the waste that gets left behind will house the bacteria that will lead to the inflammation of diverticulitis.
Diverticular disease is not always serious, but if it is there can be bleeding, rips in the pouches, blockages and you may even reach the point where a hole develops in the colon and your faeces leak into the abdomen.
To avoid diverticular disease you should eat a diet that contains plenty of fiber. Lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains such as bread, pasta and brown rice, and legumes such as kidney beans, chick peas and lentils. Don’t forget to drink plenty of water, all that fiber will not help unless it has water to absorb.
If you have been eating an unhealthy diet and think you may be heading towards diverticulitis it would be well worth doing a colon cleanse to get rid of any of the waste that has been accumulating, you will then have a clean colon to start your new healthy eating plan!

Detox Cleansing
Detoxification is the process of cleaning toxins from the body, clearing the excess mucus and congestion. These toxins come from our diet, drug use and environmental exposure. Fats and cholesterols turn into toxins in our bodies which can cause poor digesting and colon problems. This can lead to reduced liver function, kidney issues and even skin and respiratory tract problems.
Detoxing involes making lifestyle and diet changes that will rdeduce the amount of toxins you intake and clear out the ones that are already in the body. You aim to avoid chemicals that are in foods, such as refined sugars, caffeine, alcohol and tobacco, as well as other drugs you may be taking. In particular, when doing a colon detox, it is important you keep up your probiotic intake as this will replenish the intestinal flora you’ve lost from the toxins in your body which will help you during the detox.
Technically, our body is detoxing all the time, when it naturally expels toxins from our body. However sometimes, especially with the amount of toxins in today’s society, it needs a helping hand. Low energy, stress and abdominal problems are all symptoms of a body full of bad toxins. When we are detoxing we can experience several symptoms such as rashes, headaches and bad breath. These symptoms indicate the body is working properly and that the toxins are being eliminated. Usually these symptoms will last no longer than 3 days and they can be eased. Drinking a lot of water during a detox is essential for kidney and liver health and can also help avoid some of these symptoms.

Colonic Irrigation
The benefits of a colonic irrigation are vast. It is much more effective than a home enema, as it clears the whole length of the colon, whereas the enema just reaches the lowest parts.
Looking after your colon is essential to the holistic health of your body. The colon has an effect on the rest of the organs in your body, improving liver, heart and kidney functions as well as improving your skin. The amount of toxic food we eat and toxins that enter our body from the atmosphere are all doing bad things to our digestion, which can reflect on the rest of our body. The colonic irrigation flushes these toxins out.
Symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, loss of appetite and irritability can all be related back to issues in the bowel. Debris in the colon weakens its functions and toxic material can build up from our day to day diet and the toxins we ingest. Hydration slowly breaks down and clears the fecal matter that layers the walls of the intestine and shifts blockages. The water in the colon encourages the natural movement that occurs.
Problems like wind and bloating can be fixed using this technique, allowing the colon to return to it’s natural state. The build up of matter can alter the shape of the colon when the bowel gets full from storing waste matter. This decreases the transit time which means the food decays and rots.
The benefits from colonic irrigation can also help those about to undergo anesthesia, helping reduce the issues with bowel functions after surgery.

Maintaining your Internal Flora
The microbes and other germs that live in our gut, the stomach, small and large intestines and the colon, are our internal flora, more specifically our gut flora.
There are billions of cells in the body, from over 400 different strains. The bacteria in our gut helps with our immune system, digesting carbohydrates, preventing irritable bowels, maximizing the absorption of nutrients and energy production.
A healthy gut flora system is key for weight loss and fitness, and essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle and to stay lean and fit. As our internal flora has a large amount to do with the absorption of what we’re eating, it’s important we deal with this before attempting weight loss. Internal flora can be supplemented by taking probiotics, however it is better for you to switch the brand you use frequently.
Chlorinated water knocks out the good bacteria, so it is better to avoid drinking it and showering with it. Tumeric also promotes good bacteria in the body. You should be aiming for stools which stay together and float in the bowl with minimal odor, because odor is a sign of imbalance in the colon between good and bad bacteria.
Years of carbohydrate intake can mean that the intestines can be lined with sticky residue and clog the digestive system. An unhealthy digestive system means it’s hard for good bacteria to flourish. Colon cleansing is one way to get rid of this residue and to flush the bad bacteria out of the system.

Colon Cleansing to Remove Parasites
Humans have had digestive parasites for thousands of years, every since we started eating meat. Today the most typical type of infection is the tapeworm.
There are several types of tapeworms, all need a human host to live. The parasites can grow from 6 inches to 26 feet long and are flat, ribbon-like creatures divided into three parts. The top part, the head, contains hooks which attach to the walls of the intestines. Tapeworms absorb partly digested food through their skin. As long as the head is attached, the worm can survive and it produces eggs which detach and float through the digestive system. The baby tapeworms are expelled from the body and seek the nearest water source. They can they be picked up either from direct contact with feces or by drinking contaminated water or eating the flesh of infected animals.
The tapeworm at its embryo stage can cause an infection called cysticercosis. About 50 million people suffer from this disease, unnoticed in most. It’s only when the central nervous system is infected which can cause neurocysticercosis which can be potentially deadly. Most people aren’t aware they have tapeworms, most symptoms are unnoticeable and easily misdiagnosed, usually it’s only picked up when the worms are seen in their stools. The usual symptoms of a tapeworm infestation are irritable bowel syndrome, diarrhea, constipation and an upset stomach.
Doctors can prescribe things to get rid of tapeworm, but usually a good herbal colonic cleanser is very effective. You can get specific parasite cleansers but a good cleanser will dislodge the parasite and it will be passed. The best ways to avoid infection are to never eat raw meat, or raw fish, always wash your hands after you use the bathroom and avoid drinking water from any source where you believe it could be contaminated.

Bloating
Gas is produced during the breakdown of certain carbohydrates and proteins. This is a normal process, but too much gas causes bloating.
We know of some foods that produce gas such as beans and legumes but there are also others that we are not so aware of: whole grains, onions, wheat and fruit which are high in fructose also produce a gassy by product. Members of the brassica family, such as brussel sprouts, broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower contain sulphur and are extremely gaseous as is any preserved meat that contains sulphur in the form of food additives.
Bloating is caused by:
An overgrowth of intestinal bacteria 
An imbalance of gut microflora
Food allergies
Lactose or Fructose intolerance
A sluggish liver
Eating in a hurry or when anxious
Common trigger foods are:
Foods that contain yeast such as bread or pizza
Beans or legumes
Dairy foods
Carbonated drinks
Raw foods that are hard to digest such as carrot, onion or cucumber
Bad food combinations such as two proteins (cheese and ham) or grapes with cereal and milk
Too much fiber such as psyllium husk
Too many sulphur containing foods such as brassicas
To improve bloating, take one food off the list and discontinue it for a few days or a week to find out what causes bloating for you. If this does not improve the situation it may be worth a visit to a naturopath.

Round Worms
Roundworms are one of the more common type of parasite, and infestation occurs through oral contact with either infected meat or hand to mouth contact after touching infected feces. Roundworms will usually in the small intestines, although they have been known to make their way to the lungs or up into the stomach. They range from roughly 10cms to about 35cms in length, with the females being slightly larger than the males.
Flukes are another form of an intestinal worm. They live in the small intestines and cause inflammation. The usual symptoms are abdominal discomfort, nausea and diarrhea which is caused by the inflammation. If there are too many worms they can cause a blockage of the intestines. Some individuals may also suffer an infection from the foreign proteins in the parasite which appears as fluid build up in the face, abdomen and lower limbs.
Most colonic cleansers will rid your system of worms, the best ones are usually a natural one. A combination of psyllium husk powder, flax seed oil and bentonite clay (all of which you can find at your local health food store) mashed into a paste and mixed with juice (preferably a pulpy juice such as orange juice) is a good natural worm cleanser. The mixture should be drunk twice a day, morning and night. After 3 days you should notice a change in your stools and energy and you may see worms in your stools. The cleanse should be continued for 2 weeks.

Psyllium Husk
Psyllium is a natural, water soluble fiber which is taken from the husks of psyllium seeds. It is useful as a cleanser ridding the colon of toxic substances by absorbing them like a sponge.
Dietary fiber, previously unrecognized for its health benefits, has received a lot of attention as of late. It is widely accepted as holding a major role in lowering total blood cholesterol, so lessening the danger of coronary heart disease, and in serving to ease many bowel disorders. Dietary fiber is divided into two basic categories, soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber dissolves in water, and insoluble fiber, does not. Both soluble and insoluble fibers provide mass in the large intestine and persuade bowel regularity.
Another dietary fiber is wheat bran, which is insoluble and cellulose. Also used frequently are oat bran and apple pectin, both water soluble. Water soluble fibers have shown an ability to lower cholesterol levels. This is achieved through its ability to help excrete cholesterol through the bowel, inhibit it’s synthesis in the liver and to absorb the acids in the intestines. Insoluble fibers do not have the same effect on cholesterol.
Psyllium is also a great natural colon cleanser, it is used to treat a wide range of digestive complaints like constipation, diarrhea and colitis. The amount of artificial and refined food we eat slows down the time for food to pass through I digestion, allowing it to rot and stick in our colon. Dietary fiber is good in colon cleansing for its stool- bulking and softening abilities. Pysllium swells and forms a gel when exposed to water. A larger and softer stool travels easier through the digestive system and requires less exertion to pass.
More about Psyllium Husks…
The husk of Psyllium is the actual coating of mucilage around the seed. It is considered pure dietary fiber and is the only part of the plant used in manufacturing Psyllium products. Its nutritional value consists mainly of glycosides.
Homemade Colon Cleanse The Natural Way
