Boost Your Immune System: Keep Your Colon Clean

The lower intestinal tract plays a very important role in the body: it eliminates toxins. It does this by compacting food and squeezing out all the goodness, what is left is waste, which it then moves along down the intestines. It also produces mucus, to make sure that the waste binds together, making it easier to move waste through the system. Unfortunately, the mixture can become very hard and very sticky, and when this happens it can stick to the intestinal and colonic walls, which causes a problem because these organs can no longer do their work effectively.

The waste that sticks to the walls and cannot be moved is called compacted waste. The causes for this substance are unclear, but most doctors agree that our modern diets have a lot to answer for – particularly the high levels of refined sugars (found in white breads, pastas, rice, biscuits and cereals). This is problematic because an unhealthy colon will lead to a weakening of the immune system, which will then cause widespread problems throughout the body.

Fortunately, a good colon cleansing session will remove compacted waste from the system. There are several different types of cleansers, and we will now look at each in turn.

Colonic Irrigation

Colonic Irrigation, also known as colon hydrotherapy, is a procedure whereby a tube is inserted into the rectum. Water is then pumped down the tube all the way into the upper intestines. The machine that pumps the water has a one way valve, so the water does not come back out straightaway; instead, the practitioner will massage the stomach in an attempt to loosen the compacted matter. Once they have done this they then ‘release’ the valve and suck the water out…along with years’ worth of compacted faecal matter.

It sounds a bit disgusting and many people find it too embarrassing to contemplate, but it does work, and it will increase your energy levels.

You will need between 3-6 treatments to make sure that the procedure removes all the waste.

Colon Cleansers

These are the most popular types of treatment and come as a tablet or a powder. They are non-medical procedures, and so can be done at home. All that happens is that you take a tablet and let the active ingredients work their magic through your intestines and colon. They are very good at eliminating toxins, but some people can go a little overboard and take them too often, which can cause problems. If you do choose this route then make sure that you do read the manufactures instructions and you only take them for the recommended period of time.

There are a wider range of colon cleansers available, so you will have to read the manufacture’s description of the product to make sure it is right for you.

Remember, that once your colon is clean, you will need to maintain this by eating a healthy diet. Do as the doctors recommend and eat plenty of vegetables and fruit, reduce your intake of red meat and swap refined food for whole foods and unprocessed foods.

Colon: Keep it Healthy, Keep Happy

The responsibility of the colon in the human body is to eliminate toxins and prevent them building up. The colon receives little press in the contemporary world, but it is paramount to good health. Problems with the colon can cause widespread problems within the body, weakening the immune system, causing depression, causing anxiety, causing migraines, etc. We feel, therefore, that it should be much more talked about than it is at present. Poor colonic health is contributing too many people’s poor health.

If you feel that you are a little run down, then you may have a problem with your colon. Fortunately, this is easily rectified. All you need to do is to take a colon cleanser, and make a few lifestyle changes. You will soon be feeling your happy, energetic, self once more.

There are several solutions for colon cleansing, and here we will take a closer look at the most popular ones.

  • Colonic Irrigation: this is the most invasive procedure and many people feel embarrassed by it. Here, the technician will insert a plastic tube into the rectum, they will then pump water into your body (your tummy will expand and you will feel the water sloshing around), they then massage your tummy to make sure that the water is picking up the compacted waste. Once they have done this they then ‘flush’ you out by releasing the water. It sucks all of the waste out, even stuff that may have been there years! It sounds a bit horrid, but it does work. Fortunately, though, it is not the only solution.
  • Colon Cleanser Supplements: you can purchase colon cleanser supplements online or in a pharmacy. They normally arrive as tablets or in powder form, which you then take with water. After about 12-24 hours, they will start to do their job, and will eliminate waste from the body. These are great if you want to avoid the embarrassment of colonic irrigation, but they are also good because you can take them to your own schedule – preferably when you know you will be near a toilet when ‘it’ happens!
  • Eat plenty of Fibre: Fibre is nature’s natural colon cleanser. Eating plenty of fibre will literally ‘sweep’ out your insides. Fibre is of a consistency that it acts, sort of, like a brush, brushing, sweeping and collecting waste from your lower intestinal tract and sweeping it out of the bottom. The best sources of fibre are fruit, vegetables, and whole wheat. You should avoid eating white bread, white pasta, and white rice, because it has a lot less fibre and the body finds it hard to digest – in fact, health practitioners think it may be the main cause of the increase in colonic ill health witnessed by many in today’s society. It is vital, when trying to maintain a healthy colon, that you consider your diet, you need to eat the foods with which the human body is familiar, and unfortunately, this means no processed food.

How to Clean Your Colon Non-Invasively

If you are reading this article, then it is probably because somebody (e.g. your doctor) has told you that you need to have a colon cleanse; or, for one reason or another, you think that it is time that you had your colon cleansed. For many people, this can be daunting, because what many people bring to mind when thinking about colon cleansing is colonic irrigation. Now, colonic irrigation is an embarrassing and invasive procedure and is something that most people wish to avoid. Fortunately, it is not the only solution to colon cleansing; there are many natural and man-made colon cleansers that require no invasive procedures.

You will need to have a colon cleanse if your colon is being sluggish, or if there is a great deal of waste compaction in the colon. When the colon is not working correctly, people can become lethargic, anxious and depressed, as well as suffering from a wide range of other symptoms, such as migraine, bloating, gas, diarrhoea, constipation, etc. These problems are caused by a build-up of toxins in the body, which the colon (- the organ responsible for removing toxins) has been unable to eradicate. At such times, a colon cleanser is essential.

Colonic irrigation can be painful, as well as embarrassing, and so it is essential for some of us that we find an alternative solution. The best products for a quick colon cleanse solution are the powders or tablet colon cleanser supplements. These are taken with water and within a few hours will help to eliminate waste – even the most compacted of waste matter. This will bring immediate relief to people suffering with constipation, bloating, and gas. Within a few days of treatment, you will find that your energy levels increase and that you general feelings of good health return. They can be a little expensive, but they are well worth the money if you are feeling down.

Once your colon is clean, you need to make sure that you help to maintain it that way. If you have had compacted matter, then this tells us that you have a poor diet, and so the first thing for you to do is to change your eating habits. If you have very bad stomach pains and cramps, then you must eliminate refined sugars from your diet. This means that you should not be eating any white bread, white pasta, or white rice. Instead, substitute these for brown versions. Additionally, you should be reducing your intake of carbohydrates, and so do try to eat less of these starchy foods, regardless of their colour. Fruit and vegetables are fantastic for maintaining colon health, so boost your intake of these – eat more than the recommended 5 a day, and try to eat more vegetables than fruit.

It is important that you make dietary changes because they will prevent problems in the future. You will feel much better in yourself, because a healthy body creates a healthy mind.

Why It’s Important to Maintain a healthy Colon, and How to Achieve Good Colon Health

Colon cleansing is the act of removing compacted faecal waste from the colon and the lower intestinal tract. Overtime, compacted matter can stick to the walls of the intestines and the colon, thereby lowering their efficiency and causing health problems throughout the body. The role of the colon is to eliminate waste and toxins, clearly, if it is not working properly, the body is, in effect, being poisoned. Therefore, colon cleansing is essential.

To know whether you colon is working properly, you need to pay attention to how often you go to the toiled and how easy it is to pass stools. If you find that there is blood in your stools, or that you are constipated or suffer from diarrhoea too regularly, then there may be a problem. The first thing to do is of course, to visit a doctor, and then you will need to ensure that your colon is clean and that you maintain it as such.

To maintain colon health, you need to use a decent colon cleanser. You can purchase colon cleansers online or from your local pharmacy. They usually come in the form of a supplement taken in capsule or in powder form (- with water for the latter, clearly). These will help to flush out any compacted waste, which will therefore give you a good platform from which to maintain a healthy colon. There are other alternatives when it comes to colon cleansing, for instance, you may opt for colonic irrigation; however, this is very invasive and many people are uncomfortable with undertaking such an option.

Once you have used a colon cleanser, you need now to maintain the health of the colon. To do this, you need to make sure that you are eating the right sort of food. Dieticians have found that refined wheat and rice, i.e. the white varieties, are much more likely to lead to compacted faecal matter. Therefore, one of the first steps that you should take is to start eating more whole wheat. Having said that, you should cut down on the amount of bread, pasta and rice you eat, regardless of colour. Instead, you need to eat more vegetables, fruit and meat. According to research, raw fruits and vegetables are better for our digestive health than when cooked, so wherever possible, try to integrate more raw food into your diet – a salad with your lunch and dinner will help wonderfully.

Exercise is another important factor in colon health, and is a factor that many people overlook. When you have a slow metabolic rate, your digestive system does not work as fast, and so toxins sit in the body for longer, giving them a greater scope for escaping the intestines and colon and wreaking havoc throughout the body. Exercise will increase your metabolic rate, which in turn makes sure that you food is digested faster. A good rate of digestion is 24 hours from mouth to bottom.

How to Maintain a Healthy Colon

Poor colon health can lead to a wide range of problems; problems that you may believe to be entirely unrelated. It is obvious that a poorly functioning colon will lead to bloating, gas, either diarrhoea or constipation, and abdominal cramping. However, it is less obvious that it can also lead to a poor complexion, reduction in energy levels, lethargy, depression, anxiety and migraine. The reason why those of the latter category are less obvious is because they seem largely unrelated to the colon. However, the colon eliminates toxins from the body, if the colon is not working correctly, toxins will move around the body and cause a range of problems, as those listed here.

Therefore, an impacted or lower functioning, colon will cause problems through the body. In this type of situation, many health problems can arise in the future. In such situations, therefore, a colon cleanse is imminent.

The first thing that you need to do is to increase the amount of liquid that you drink. It is recommended that the average person drinks two litres of liquid a day. This does not necessarily mean water, and there are certain teas and fruit juices that work wonders for the colon. These include green teas, apple juice, acai berry juice, prune juice and senna leaf tea.

Next, you will need to change your diet. Most importantly, you need to increase the amount of dietary fibre you are getting. Furthermore, refined wheat is harder to digest, and so you should be changing white bread, pasta, and rice for brown bread pasta and rice. You also need to increase your intake of fruit and vegetables – not too much fruit though, vegetables are much more important.

Thirdly, you need to increase your exercise levels. You should aim for around 30 minutes of exercise three times a week. This will speed up your metabolism and therefore increase the function of the colon – you will eliminate waste faster and it will not sit in the colon, where it will leak toxins into the body.

Next, you need to introduce a colon cleanse into your routine. These are supplements that you can buy online. They usually come in the form of soluble powder, which you then mix with water. These supplements take a few days to work, but they will clear out the colon and the lower intestinal tract. Please note, however, that you should only use a supplement for a week or so at a time, and then give your body a break. Use them every once in a while when you are feeling sluggish.

If you find that you are having severe problems with your colon, then you should visit a doctor, who will be able to give you further advice. Remember that colon health is essential, and that maintaining a healthy colon can help to prevent more serious problems, such as bowel cancer and such like.

Four Ways to a Healthy Colon

There are many benefits to having a colon cleanse. A healthy, well-functioning colon, will help you to lose weight, will give you more energy, will improve your complexion, will reduce feelings of anxiety and depression, and will enhance your general sense of well-being. Here, we will look at some of the most popular types of colon cleansing so that you can make an informed decision when it comes to the health of your colon.

Enemas and Irrigation

The type of colon cleanse that most people have heard of is colonic irrigation. However, it is not necessarily the most popular of methods, and this is because it tends to be highly invasive and extremely personal – it can be excruciatingly embarrassing to show a stranger your backside! That being said, though, it does offer a comprehensive clean. There are a few issues, though. Firstly, it can cause discomfort in the tummy, as the fill up your lower intestinal tract with water, and then massage this water around before they release it. Furthermore, you will need at least three treatments before you begin seeing/feeling the benefits. Most importantly, however, you need to make sure that you stay close to a toilet for the next couple of hours, or it can become a little frightful. Although they work well, then, there are a few downsides – the upside is, of course, a cleaner colon, better skin, and an elevated mood.

Detoxification

Detox is a great way to help to clean the colon. This refers to changing diet, but only for a few days (see below for full diet changes), either through the use of fasting, or fasting with juices. Certain fruit and berry juices are said to colon cleanse wonderfully; most notably, the acai berry. This technique can be draining, though, and lead to a loss of energy because the body is not receiving the nutrients it needs. There is also less scientific evidence of its efficacy. It is hard to eat no food for a week, so this technique is only for those that can handle starvation!

Dietary Changes

This is the most important thing in helping with colon health, and will have wide reaching health benefits in general. Changing your diet represents a lifestyle change, and so it can be a little difficult to implement. In terms of colon health, you need to introduce more whole grains and eliminate refined breads, pasta and rice (i.e. swap white bread/pasta/rice, for their brown counterparts). You need to cut down your intake of carbohydrate generally, and increase the amount of vegetables, fruit and meat that you eat. We recommend that you visit a doctor for more information.

Supplements

You can buy a colon cleanse from your local health food shop or from the internet. These are designed for short term use and can quickly clean out the colon. They are great for a quick fix before changing diet or implementing the detoxification technique.

Feeling Sluggish? You May Need to Boost Your Colon’s Health

Modern day diets have led to a reduction in the efficacy of our digestive tract; particularly the lower intestinal tract and the colon. When these parts of the body are not working sufficiently, we can experience a range of symptoms; which may include headaches, bloated tummies, gas, pain, and even depression and anxiety. The reason these problems occur is due to a lessening in the body’s ability to rid itself of dangerous toxins, through faecal matter. These toxins build up over time and emigrate around the body, causing a wide range of problems. In order to help avoid the build-up of toxins, it is therefore vital to maintain good digestive health.

The colon is the area of the body with the greatest role in eliminating toxins. When the colon becomes sluggish, the process of extracting toxins slows down, waste products build up in the system, and nothing but a good colon cleanse will help to address the problem.

Fortunately, there are several things that you can do to help insure that your lower intestinal tract is operating to an optimum capacity. There are a variety of natural and man-made solutions, and a combination of both is most conductive to good colon health.

Firstly, visit your doctor and ask them about any good dieting tips that can help specifically with this problem. They will often advise that you change your diet. Many of the refined sugars that we eat – prevalent in white bread, white rice and white pasta – are responsible for sluggish digestion, and so the first thing they will advise you to do is to change to whole grains. However, they will also advise that you eat less carbohydrate in general, and that instead, you derive a greater proportion of nutrients from meats, fish, vegetables and fruit.

Next, you should visit your local health food shop. They will have a variety of natural products that help specifically with colon health. For instance, dried prunes are incredibly beneficial for the colon, as are dried apricots. They will also have alternatives to wheat and pasta, such as lentils, which when incorporated into the diet will help to maintain colon health.

Subsequently, you should invest in a colon cleaner. These are products that you can buy in the health food shops, from pharmacists, or online. These offer quick solutions for digestive problems. In fact, you will feel the effects of a good colon cleanse within the first 24hours. Changing your diet is the most important factor, but it can take several months to clean out the whole system, and so to give yourself a good boost, a colon cleanser is the best option.

Exercise is another helpful solution. When you exercise, you increase your metabolic rate; everything speeds up including your digestive system. This means toxins stay in the body for a shorter period of time, and therefore there is less damage caused by the free radicals in our food. If you are new to exercise, start slowly and build-up – a little is better than none at all.

How to Keep Your Colon Clean and Reap the Benefits of Good Health

Colon detoxification is the latest health craze sweeping the world. The idea is that it will eliminate the toxins that build up in the body overtime. These toxins are particularly prevalent in the lower intestinal tract; so the small intestine and the colon. Toxins in the body create a wide range of health issues, such as a weakened immune system, lathery, depression and anxiety. The wisdom goes that if you keep the colon healthy it work better to eliminate toxins, and consequently improves overall health. This is largely true, and therefore accounts for much of the popularity of the modern colon cleanse.

The reason that these toxins have built up in the colon in the first place is because of our modern dietary habits. The foods that many of us eat are not conductive to healthy colonic function. Therefore, one of the most important steps to be taken is to improve the diet. Health practitioners recommend that we eliminate all refined wheat from our diets, this means that we should not be eating (or that we should at least reduce the intake of) white breads, white pastas, and white rice.

Some of the more natural remedies to increasing colon health may include losing weight. This is a key facet in poor digestion. The larger you are, the more your body has to work and the less efficiently it can process food. This has several consequences. Firstly, it will make you eat more food: if you are not getting enough nutrients from your food, then it follows that your body will crave more food to satisfy nutrient demands. Secondly, the larger you are the lower your metabolic rate will be which means that the process of digestion will be much reduced. Therefore, in order to maintain good colon health, you need to eat less food and lose weight.

Next, you need to improve your diet and ensure that you are getting sufficient levels of dietary fibre. Fibre is really nature’s natural colon cleanser. It sounds horrible, but it sort of acts like a brush, moving through the system and sweeping up any ‘dirt’ (- by which we mean toxins and foods that are hard to digest), and removing it from the system. Therefore, the next most important thing to do is to make sure that you are getting enough fibre in your diet. Fibre is found in fruits and vegetables, as well as in whole grain cereals. It has other benefits too, it is good for your heart and your brain – so a bonus.

Finally, you can you use a colon cleansing supplement. These are specifically formulated to concentrate on and clean the colon. Many incorporate oxygen into the solution, which then fizzes in the colon, and consequently helps to breakdown, and move along, compacted faecal matter. They are very beneficial, but you do need to ensure that they are not removing essential nutrients too, so use them every now and again, and not on a regular basis.

Follow these three steps and you will soon be on your way to colon health. A healthy colon will leave you feeling more energetic, happier, and give you smoother, clearer, skin. If you are interested in buying colon cleanse, then please visit http://www.thefinchleyclinic.com/.

Spotting the Symptoms of Candida and Finding the Right Cure

Candida is an irritating condition that is extremely prevalent in the modern world. It occurs when there is an overgrowth of yeast in the digestive tract. Candida, although benign, will cause a range of symptoms, which may include: lethargy, oral and genital thrush, migraine, fatigue, bad breath, weak immune systems, depression, anxiety and itching.

Given the wide range of symptoms, it is unsurprising to learn that a candida infection can be hard to diagnose, and many people return to their doctors repeatedly in order to find out the problem, these people are often initially misdiagnosed as suffering from other, more serious illnesses. For example, it is common for people to be diagnosed with chronic depression; when in fact, they simply have a case of chronic candida. As you can imagine, the consequence of a false diagnosis can have far reaching and devastating results – if you are diagnosed with depression, for instance, you may find it harder to gain meaningful employment

Fivelac

Fivelac

It is therefore essential that people learn to recognise the symptoms of candida (as listed above) and then find suitable solutions to the problem. Here, we take a closer look at some of the things that you can do to help beat candida once and for all:

  • Candida is often attributed to the consumption of refined wheat and sugars, so the first thing to look at is diet. You need to eliminate white bread and pasta from the diet, and substitute them with whole grain alternatives. It is also worth reducing carbohydrates of all types. Instead, eat greater levels of meat, fruit and vegetables.
  • You must also treat the external symptoms of the infection. To do this, you should visit your pharmacy and ask for anti-fungal cream. These creams are excellent, and will help to prevent the accidental reintroduction of yeast into the body. Candida is contagious, so you must eliminate it as much as possible – this means that you should also treat family members, too.
  • Exercise is another good one, but it does not prevent the infection. What it does do, however, is improve the immune system and boost mood, so you will feel less anxious and depressed – both of which can be symptoms of the infection.
  • Reduce the intake of foods that naturally produce yeast. As mentioned, you need to avoid eating white breads and rice, but you should also reduce your intake of cheese and brown breads too, although a little of each is okay.
  • Take a probiotic supplement such as Fivelac. Fivelac contains ‘friendly bacteria’ which will fight off and prevent the reoccurrence of the candida yeast infection. This will help to restore you body’s natural PH balance and will result in greater feelings of health, more energy and create a general feeling of well-being.

By following these rules, you will soon find improvements. However, bear in mind that some solutions, such as dietary changes, can take several weeks or months to take effect. The creams and the probiotic solutions will start working within a couple of hours, and so these are certainly the first call of action. If you would like to purchase a probiotic formula, then please visit http://www.thefinchleyclinic.com/.

The Cure for Candida?

If you have suffered from the Candida yeast infection, then you will be more than aware of the irritation and the upset it can cause in everyday life. Fortunately, though, there is a solution: Fivelac. Here, we take a closer look at this probiotic formula, its benefits and its short comings.

Fivelac: What is it?

Fivelac is a treatment specifically designed to fight of the fungal infection Candida. It is the latest formula in a long line of treatments and based on the introduction of good bacteria in the guts and in the lower intestinal tract. It is one of the most popular treatments available today; a fact that speaks volumes of its efficacy. This treatment acts both as a preventative measure and as a solution to candida.

Fivelac

Fivelac

What does it do?

This formula introduces probiotics to the gut and intestinal tract. These probiotics are the so called ‘friendly’ bacteria and their presence helps to ward off and fight the so called ‘bad’ bacteria. This means that bad bacteria find it hard to get a purchase within the digestive tract, which prevents their growth, and consequently their associated infections. This formula will restore and then keep balanced the body’s natural PH levels.  According to the claims of the manufacturers, a single sachet will introduce more than a billion ‘friendly’ bacteria into the gut – you probably think the sachets are huge, but actually, they are not, bacteria is simply unimaginably tiny.

Who Should Use Fivelac?

This treatment is intended for safe use by everybody, regardless of age or sex. However, before embarking on a course of treatment, it is recommended that you consult a doctor if very young, very old, or if you have an extremely weak immune system.

Clearly, those that benefit most from treatment are those with the yeast infection candida.

Bad Press?

Giventhe popularity of the treatment, it is unsurprising to learn that there has been some bad press in reference to Fivelac. These are usually problems of taste, or whenpeople without candida expect a cure for something else, for example depression, and find no noticeable changes. It is also criticised for being somewhat expensive.

Good Press:

OK, so the product is expensive, but most suppliers offer a 60 day refund if the person is not entirely satisfied with the results.

Many people report extremely positive reactions to treatment. For those of you that do not know, candida causes a range of problems: thrush and its associated discomfort and itching; bloating and gas; depression and anxiety (this is where some people get confused, the treatment will reduce these in those people who have the condition because of candida, and not for other reasons); bad breath; migraines; sluggishness and lethargy. Most people who take the treatment report improvements in all areas.
