Natural Ways to Cleanse the Colon

Some doctors believe that having a clean colon will cure numerous diseases, including digestive disorders and skin problems. While there is anecdotal evidence to support this, there are few studies that prove this claim. Still cleaning the body internally and removing toxins can only improve your general health. There are a few natural ways to clean the colon that are easy to add to your daily routine.

  1. Drink More Water

    • Without a steady influx of water each day, our bodies could not function effectively. Drinking 10 glasses of water or juice every day is especially helpful for moving wastes through the large intestines.

    Eat More Fiber

    • Foods with high fiber content are known to regulate elimination and reduced constipation and diarrhea. Fruits and vegetable are good food sources of fiber.

    Do a One-Day Fast

    • A fast gives your digestive system a break from processing and eliminating food. During this time the body uses its energy to self-clean.

    Eat Organic Foods

    • Organic foods are a way to get the nutrients the body needs without chemicals like preservatives. Organic food also results in fewer toxins entering the body so the colon deals with less waste materials.

    Take Herbal Colon Cleaners

    • Herbal colon cleaners are safer for your body than the chemicals in stool softeners and laxatives.
