A colon cleanse is a prerequisite when preparing patients for medical procedures such as colonoscopy. In the past few years however, colon cleansing is also being utilised as an efficient way for getting rid of toxins that have collected in the gut over time. Holistic experts claim that such a procedure can recharge the colon and revitalise the human body, too.
Is a colon cleanse a good idea?
Periodic colon cleansing at home is believed to be beneficial to our general health and wellbeing. As colon cleansing removes the impacted stool and toxins from the gut, colon cleansing enthusiasts are less likely to experience symptoms of a toxic colon such as chronic fatigue, bloating, excessive gas, and weight gain, just to name a few.
How do I clean out my colon?
Colon cleansing at home is a simple and straightforward cleansing method that involves the introduction of distilled water into the colon via the rectum and holding the water inside for about 20 minutes, before evacuating the bowel. This enema procedure cleans the distal part of the large intestine. A colon hydrotherapy session at a clinic, on the other hand, thoroughly cleanses the entire large intestine.
How long does it take to clean your colon?
Colon cleansing at home typically takes about 20 minutes to complete. You need to prepare the enema kit and other equipment such as a towel and plastic and place them in the bathroom to save time. Based on enema instructions, you need to perform the enema three times or until the water coming out runs clear. It is recommended to have a regular bowel movement before performing an enema to minimise any mess.
Can you lose weight with a colon cleanse?
A shallow colon cleanse stimulates peristalsis and kick starts regular bowel movement. With these results, users will notice immediate weight loss of between 2 and 3 kilos after the first session. The boost in metabolism also contributes to weight loss as calories burn faster after a regular colon cleanse at home.
