Colon Cleanse Diet – What Foods To Eat

There is a natural way to stay regular and that is to eat a colon cleanse diet.

By consuming several foods that are actually quite good tasting yet have direct actions on the digestive tract, you can enjoy the benefits of optimal colon function.

The benefits include the following:

• no stomach distress after eating
• can expect bowel movements like clockwork
• clearer skin
• plenty of energy during the day
• less fatigue
• greater concentration
• fewer headaches
• less cravings during the day
• bowel movements are effortless
• less body odor; smell fresher
• feeling happier during the day
• less intestinal gas

Dr. John Christopher, N.D., founder of the School of Natural Healing in Springvillle, Utah used to say, “The meanest little kids have the dirtiest colons. After you put them on a colon cleanse (and diet change), they turn into the nicest little kids you ever met.” There’s much to say for cleaning out the colon and maintaining good colon function.
