Good Health Habits Part 4: Detoxification

• Clean your colon; consume more fiber

Many natural healers and even medical doctors believe that “death begins in the colon”. Our modern diets are filled with sticky, starchy foods and are very low in fiber. The result is slow, sluggish and clogged up colons. Toxins are stuck in our bodies and reabsorbed, causing auto-intoxication and weakened and overworked immune systems. In the long run, diseases develop.

You can improve your colon health and function by consuming more fiber. More intensive cleansing can be carried out by taking colon cleansing herbs or supplements, or by undergoing other colon cleansing protocols. You could take a look at some colon cleansing products here.

• Detoxify your other organs

Besides cleaning your colon, it is also a good idea to undertake periodic detoxification of your other body organs and systems. This can be done using liver flushes, kidney flushes, juice fasting, blood purification herbal teas, various herbal concoctions, castor oil packs, etc.

• Sweat more

I know sweating was already mentioned under “Lifestyle“. But I’m emphasizing it because it is a really good and important way for our bodies to detoxify. Consider this the ‘advanced level’. An excellent way to sweat a lot is to use saunas, especially infra-red saunas. Take a look at some sauna products here.
