Fiber
Crucial For A Healthy Colon
Natural health experts have long said that illness, death and "old-age" begin in the colon. It is VERY important to improve intestinal health with food high in fiber.
High fiber (sometimes spelled "fibre") also lowers cholesterol, and moves other fats along, lessening their absorption. Thus digestive fiber helps with managing both cholesterol and triglycerides.
Vegetables, fruits, whole grains, seeds, nuts and beans are fiber rich foods that should be a major part of the diet. It is ironic that professionals caution those with intestinal troubles to avoid the "irritations" of high fiber foods when fiber is actually what is needed.
People suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), including ailments such as colitis, diverticulitis and so forth, may find the more soothing fiber of slippery elm, flaxseed, and apple pectin very beneficial.
HELP FOR THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
Improve The Food Tube
In addition to cleansing the bowel, improving digestion, avoiding toxic pollutants, lymphatic-pumping exercise, blood and tissue cleansing, and drinking pure water, will all assist in detoxification of the body and restoration of great health. Here are some items that will help in this process:
~ Organic milled flaxseed provides ideal fiber plus many other benefits.
-- laxative herbs such as cascara sagrada, senna, rhubarb root, etc.
NOTE: The bowel cleansing herbs such as cascara sagrada are needed only until the bowel can function well without them.
-- the molecular structure of purified activated clay, such as bentonite, attracts and traps toxins for removal from the body
-- including protease, amylase, lipase, cellulase, invertase, lactase, sucrase, maltase, etc. Multiple enzymes taken at mealtime help digest food and break it down into a liquid state; taken in between meals, they increase enzyme levels in the blood -- helpful to certain metabolic functions.
-- an imbalance of microbes develops due to antibiotics and other toxins destroying good bacteria. This allows Candida yeast and other unfriendly parasites to multiply and possibly move into the blood and various organs. It is essential to restore good colon ecology with friendly, helpful bacteria.
NOTE: The restoration of the probiotic colony should be engaged until the bacteria are well-established enough to insure good colon function continues. The probiotic supplement "grass seed" should then be sown periodically to maintain a good colony.
