Fiber acts like a broom, helping sweep chemicals and toxins through the intestinal tract. When we don't get enough fiber in the diet, the movement of the intestines is slowed, promoting the build up of waste material and toxins in the bowel, liver and blood. Everyone can benefit from a periodic colon cleanse to clear out these accumulations. A good herbal cleanse will not only improve elimination but will aid all of the organs and tissues that have an eliminative function including, not only the colon or bowel, but the liver, lungs, skin, blood, and kidneys as well. Cleansing opens the body's channels of elimination so that waste can be properly eliminated before toxins build up to dangerous levels in the tissues and blood.
Toxins produce stress and deplete the body's energy systems.
Proper elimination conserves the body's healing energy making more energy available for healing and repair. We do not recommend that people who are thin, pale, emaciated or in a weakened condition begin with a cleanse. Such people should begin by building. We also do not recommend cleansing for women who are pregnant or lactating. For the rest of us, it is a good idea to begin our nutritional program with a cleanse.
