The Best Colon Cleansers 

The best colon cleansers for colon cleansing naturally come to us from nature. A colon cleansing diet supplies all you need to facilitate healthy intestinal cleansing with food, herbs, water, bacteria, and earth itself. 

Optimally, you want to have at least one substantial bowel movement a day. To avoid discomfort and the health worry of toxins reabsorbing into the bloodstream, waste needs to be removed from your body. 

Only when your intestinal balance and environment is off because of poor eating habits, medications, chemicals, lack of water, parasites or other stress on the system does waste build up. Then you need to concern yourself with how to colon cleanse in order to get things moving.

How to Colon Cleanse

To keep your elimination system in great shape, make these best colon cleansers part of your daily life. The main idea is that you are establishing lifestyle habits that support colon cleansing naturally as nature intended.

An occasional cleanse using herbs, detoxifiers, or colonics may be helpful when you need to clean out or you are worried about parasites, worms, toxins, mucoid plaque, constipation, and impacted waste. Otherwise, it is not necessary.

Eat a Colon Cleansing Diet

A healthy diet naturally favors colon health because it includes many of nature's best colon cleansers. It includes the foods your body needs for proper digestion and elimination. 

To promote regular and healthy colon cleansing, follow these tips:

• Chew your food thoroughly to break it down and let digestive enzymes mix in. Drinking too much when you eat dilutes enzymes. Take little sips if needed.

• Eat your greens - Raw and cooked greens are rich in detoxifying chlorophyll and fiber. Enjoy kale, escarole, dandelion greens, chard, romaine lettuce and others for needed roughage. A good green drink or a generous serving of fiber-rich greens can really clean you out.

• Eat plenty of fiber - Fiber is one of nature's best colon cleansers. It bulks up the stool so it can be removed fully and easily, taking waste and toxins with it. People who eat a fiber-rich diet carry an average of one day's food and waste in the bowels. Those who lack fiber store eight meals worth.

Generous daily servings of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, ground flax and psyllium bulk up your stools, absorb toxins, and move waste out of your body.

For best results, eat some fruits and vegetables raw. Eat edible skins where much of the fiber is. Aim for 25-35 grams of roughage a day. As a bonus, fiber keeps you feeling full longer and is an important weight loss ally.

• Limit white flour products, sugar and pasteurized dairy. These 'foods' interfere with healthy colon cleansing and create conditions conducive to mucus and parasites.

• Eliminate gluten-containing grains for several days. These include oats, barley, wheat and rye. If you feel better, you may want to avoid these foods permanently. Otherwise, eat them in limited quantities. Gluten is gummy and may line the intestinal wall. This make nutrient absorption more difficult, provides a safe haven for parasites, and narrows the intestinal passage.

• Drink lots of water - Fluids promote colon cleansing naturally. Fiber absorbs fluids and can be constipating without enough water. Water helps flush out toxins.

• Avoid caffeine and sugary drinks on your colon cleansing diet. Instead, try dandelion tea. Dandelion is slightly bitter, which prompts your liver to release bile. This is good for digestion and releasing toxins.

• Include probiotics -Enjoy non-sugary yogurt, kefir and fermented foods regularly. Or take a high quality supplement. Always take probiotics when using antibiotics to replace your killed- off good bacteria. 

Clay and Herbal Colon Cleansers

Are you are concerned about worms and other parasites?

Include pumpkin seeds, raw garlic, cloves, and bitter greens in your daily colon cleansing diet. Bitters cause the release of bile, which isn't liked  by 'critters'. A few doses of black walnut hull, cascara sagrada or wormwood herb will send them packing.

Eat clay. Pure calcium bentonite clay is one of nature's best colon cleansers. It was used with foods by indigenous peoples.

Clay can't be digested. It absorbs water in the bowel and expands to many times its size. As it expands, it stimulates muscular contractions that moves waste out of the body. As it leaves the body, it attracts and takes unwanted intestinal occupants with it.

Because it has a negative ionic charge, bentonite attracts positive ions. That means it binds to toxins, heavy metals, bacteria and viruses. Bentonite is commonly combined with ground flax seeds or psyllium husks.

For a natural colon detox, try this recipe:

Combine one tablespoon liquid bentonite with equal parts organic ground flax seed or psyllium husks.Take in a large glass of water or juice at least 30 minutes before breakfast and at bedtime. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. You can take this mixture indefinitely. Plan to continue for at least six weeks for best results.

If you take medications, you'll need to wait at least one hour before eating clay. If you use timed-release medications, consult your doctor before using bentonite clay since it will absorb the medication.

Knowing how to colon cleanse healthfully and regularly by incorporating the best colon cleansers into your daily diet will help your natural detoxification system do its job.
