Colon cleansing is one of the ancient methods of detoxification. The natural method of cleansing dates back to ancient Greece. Recently there has been resurgence in the use of teas, enzymes or colon irrigation for detox. The natural way of colon cleansing is done in two ways:
Cleansing with powdered or liquid supplements, some of which are taken through mouth or per rectally, which help colon in expelling the impurities along with its contents. Enemas, laxatives-stimulants or non-stimulants, herbal teas, enzymes or magnesium.
Cleansing with colon irrigation under the supervision of medical practitioners like colonic hygienists or colon hydro-therapist. This procedure is quite similar to enema, the only difference being the absence of personal effort and discomfort caused by the supplements. This process involves a low pressure pump or gravity based reservoir flushes out several gallons of water through a tube which injects water into the intestines. Then the therapist may give an abdominal massage, following which the water is passed as regular bowel movements flushing out toxins, this process is repeated. Water at different temperature, with enzymes, herbs or probiotics.
This natural way of colon cleansing was discovered due to the belief that undigested meat and other foods cause mucus buildup in colon produces toxins which might escape into the circulation and poison the body. Fatigue, headache, weight gain and lethargy are the symptoms of intoxication.
