How many times do you "go" a day?

So most of us don't like to discuss our colon health with our doctors, let alone our peers. Hopefully, having this discussion through your computer screen will make it easier because this is a VERY important matter that can affect several areas of our health. Chances are, you (like millions of others), have no clue what healthy colon activity is. I bet you probably think having one bowel movement a day is healthy and "regular." Well it's definitely not and you would be shocked to find out how many of us actually "go" once or twice a week. Here is the deal, if you do not have one BM for every meal that you eat then your colon is not functioning properly. What do you think happens to all of that junk that you eat if you don't eliminate it? It builds up in your intestines and just stays there. The weight of the build up can cause our large intestine to sag putting pressure on other organs in our abdomen. About 80 percent of the population has a damaged or malfunctioning colon. Things that can affect your colon function are high sugar intake, low fiber diets, chemicals, medicines and refined foods such as white flour, white rice and pasta. The most detrimental effect of poor colon health is the inability for your body to absorb water and nutrients from the food in your intestines. As a result, your skin will look aged and lose elasticity, your bones become week, your muscles will become depleted and the list can go on and on. So, how can we get back on track? The first thing I would suggest is a colon detox. This will clean and strengthen colon tissue. A detox supports proper digestion and elimination. After the detox you will need to keep up a diet high in fiber, at least 30 grams a day. A fiber supplement that promotes "friendly bacteria" would be great to counteract other harmful bacteria in your colon. Fiber can be extremely beneficial for those who suffer from IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), constipation and other digestive health issues. Liquid aloe is also a good product to add to your dietary regimen. Aloe improves nutrient absorption and soothes the stomach. I hope this helps all of you!! Feel free to ask me any questions!
