Dangerous Toxins Colon Cleanse Treatments Purge.

By: Maggie Simmons Are there dangerous toxins that colon cleanse purge?

There are as always two sides to the story, and on both sides we have self-interest and money.

One the one side we have the multitude of companies that have sprung up who are offering colon cleansing kits and preparations. Their testimonials show pictures of people holding aloft unusual strange rubbery, stringy objects that they claim are the contents of a bowel movement.

These companies use tactics to scare a person into believing that if they do not have their colons flushed of all matter on a regular basis then they will suffer health and sometimes life threatening conditions.

They talk of compacted fecal matter, mucoid plaque and parasite infestations, and suggest that the average American have the equivalent of a small Buick’s worth of undigested foods and waste sitting and rotting in their colon.

On the other side of the story is the medical community, who lets face it has not been the forerunners in preventative care. After all, what money is to be made if no one was sick?

They come from the angle that the colon is perfectly capable of taking care of itself, it is a grown up organ and needs no supervision. A little bit of constipation can happen to everyone and it is nothing to worry about.

However, with estimates being banded around of about 50% of the American population having some form of digestive disorder and rising, there seems to definitely be a rotting stool in the bowel (metaphorically speaking).

So, what is the truth? Which if these two groups are right?

Well, and you are not going to like this answer, they both are.

No, that is not a cop out, let me explain.

The colon can generally take care of the job of draining liquid out of the undigested food passed to it, absorbing nutrients and storing and eliminating the waste material. But it does need help. And that help comes from the food we eat.

It is not surprising that the food we eat has an impact on the ability of the colon to work. Imagine trying to squeeze gluey, gloopy compacted waste through a six foot long three inch pipe. Well this is what it is like for many Americans who partake in a diet of foods that are high in fat, heavily processed and have minimal roughage content.

So, the heroic colon does its best to clear the “glue” and is faced with the same process again after the next meal. Over time the colon starts to struggle and can be overwhelmed with waste starting to become lodged against the lining of the colon.

Overtime this can start to cause blockages and slow the passage of the stool, which can lead to constipation.

There are times when we have all had meals that are not fiber rich,, and when that happens the next fiber rich meal, or the one after that will be processed and the fiber present will help “scrub” the colon. But this can take time if the person has spent years eating the wrong diet.

If the waste material is allowed to linger in the colon, then there can be release of toxins into the blood stream, and this can cause a number of other medical complications.

So, my recommendation to people is if they have about as many bowel movements as they have substantial meals per day, and their stools are a healthy consistency their colon health is generally good. There would be little need to undergo a colon cleanse program.

However, if you believe that the health of your colon is at risk, and want to try a toxins colon cleanse treatments purge then there are a number of options available.
