Basic Cleansing and Detoxification Program

[Guest guest]

Cleansing

Digestive system and colon health have reached an-all-time low in the

country today. Diseases of the digestive tract are dramatically on the

rise. Since 1994 the #1 Cancer

among North American men and women is Colon Rectal.

 

The “modern” lifestyle has taken its toll on our digestive/elimination

organs. Refined, processed, low fiber, pesticide loaded, hormone and antibiotic

ridden foods, plus a lack of exercise and ever-increasing stress levels, all

contribute to this health crisis.

 

In observing more primitive peoples, we find that their bowels move an

average of 2 to 4 times a day. This is due to the fact that they eat better,

get more exercise and have much less stress. In the United States and Canada, we’ve been taught that

between one bowel movement a day and one bowel movement a week is

“normal”. It may be normal, but it

is not natural. We have learned that it is natural to

have 1 bowel movement a day for each meal you eat, (if you eat 3 meals you

should have 3 bowel movements).

 

The Merck Manual, the medical industry's standard text for the

diagnosis and treatment of disease, tells us that colon degeneration is on the

rise. The incidence of diverticulosis has increased dramatically over the last

40 years. It states, that in 1950, only 10% of adults over the age of 45 had

this disease, in 1955 15%, in 1972 30% and in 1987 almost 50%. The latest

edition states that the incidence " increases rapidly " over age 40 and

that " every person will have many " if they live long enough. Every American adult will have

herniation of the large intestine.

 

Diverticula

are pockets that protrude through the wall of the colon. They are caused by a

sluggish constipated bowel. These pockets fill with old fecal material which

can be reabsorbed back into the bloodstream causing all types of toxic

reactions. A sluggish bowel can

retain pounds and pounds of old, toxic and poisonous fecal matter. Many times

the real cause behind sickness and disease is this retention and reabsorption

of this toxic waste.

 

The very first step in everyone's health program should be stimulating,

cleansing and toning all the elimination organs, and the bowel is the place to

begin.
