Toxins and the Colon
A clean well functioning colon is imperative to good health and good health is as much a function of our elimination status as the quality of the food we eat. Unfortunately, the present day diet has evolved in ways that our digestive tracts have not. When we eat, the processed foods such as pasta’s, bread and sugar hit the digestive tract like glue which is nearly indigestible. This glue like substance sticks to the lining of the colon, resulting in caked-on fecal matter which may contain hidden bacteria, parasites, candida and other pathological material.
“Our knowledge of the colon has not kept pace with
that of many organs and systems of the body. As long
as we continue to assume that the colon will take care of itself,
just that long will we remain in complete ignorance
of perhaps the most important source of ill-health in the whole body.”
Dr. James Wiltsie
Consider this...
Digestive disorders are the number one reason people
see a physician today.
Colon Cancer is the second leading cancer
killer in the USA.
Over 100,000 Americans die annually
due to this disease.
Over 500 million dollars are spent annually
on laxatives in the USA.
Over 100,000 Americans undergo colostomies
each year in the United States.
Over 70 million Americans suffer from bowel problems.
Autopsies often reveal colons that are plugged
up to 80% with waste material.
These current medical facts demonstrate the important
part which the colon plays in good health!
Scientific studies are now showing that over
50% of our immune system is in our colon.
How can I cleanse my body of these toxins?
One of the safest ways to cleanse your body is through a combination of
good nutrition, proper hydration, exercise, and Colon Hydrotherapy.
Of all the excretory organs, the colon is the most abused and overloaded these days. Believe it or not, the average American today carries many pounds of dense, rubbery mucoid material-a thick toxic sludge-imbedded in his bowels, and none of it is ordinary feces.
During a detox program, it is a good idea to eliminate as much of this toxic lining as possible from the bowels. For a complete cleansing of the entire colon, a series of colonic irrigations is recommended, especially during the first few days of a detox program. In addition to cleansing the colon and eliminating a major source of toxins to the bloodstream, colonic irrigation triggers a strong detox response in the liver, and a major cleansing reaction throughout the body. It is impossible to describe in words the sheer volume and incredible foul appearance of the putrid, mucoid wastes that come tumbling out of the body with a series of colonic irrigation, after festering in the bowels for years and years. It is definitely a case of “seeing is believing,” and any one who’s ever done it can testify how good it feels to dump all that bad rubbish from their bodies.
If you really wish to “start at the bottom” in a progressive program to completely detoxify and regenerate your whole system, then you should definitely begin with a series of colonic irrigations to dredge your bowels of all the putrefies, partially digested debris and toxic residues that have accumulated inside over the years. Until you do this, regardless of how well you cleanse your blood and tissues by other means, the sludge in your bowels will continue to seep toxins right back into your bloodstream. Virtually everyone today has this problem. Even a hundred years ago, the famous American Naturopath Dr. Harvey Kellogg, who invented the corn flake, and was portrayed in the movie, “Road to Wellville” noted:
“Of the 22,000 operation that I have personally performed,
I have never found a normal colon. “
V.E. Irons, who devoted his long life to promoting colon health, remarked,
“About the only place you see a normal
healthy colon today is in an anatomy book.”
It is rather pointless to embark on a major new dietary program and spend a lot of money on expensive nutritional and herbal supplements if your bowels are impacted with toxic wastes from years of pollutants and wrong eating habits. Not only does this thick slimy lining constantly secrete toxins into the bloodstream through the bowel walls, in the small intestine it blocks the assimilation of nutrients and herbal essences into the bloodstream.
Dr. Norman Walker, who lived to the age of 116 by practicing what he preached,
states in his book Colon Health: The key to a Vibrant Life:
The elimination of undigested food and other waste products is equally
important as the proper digestion and assimilation of food.
The very best diets can be no better than the very worst if the sewage
system of the colon is clogged with a collection of waste and corruption.
Those who have done colonic irrigations have always remarked on how much better they feel afterwards, and how colonics often eliminate chronic conditions that defied all other treatments. Nothing facilitates internal cleansing and accelerates the detox process as effectively as colonic irrigation. If you’re still a “colonic virgin” and you really wish to know how it feels to unclog your bowels and wash them “squeaky clean,” you should gird your loins and take the plunge as the first big step on you own “Road to Wellville.”
