Question about Colon Hydrotherapy/ Colonics -are they safe to do even while you !


Question: Question about Colon Hydrotherapy/ Colonics -are they safe to do even while you are not on a cleanse program?
I have had them before and really had great results. At the time I was doing an internal cleanse and part of it was to have 3 colon hydrotherapy sessions. I would really like to get a colonic soon because I am feeling icky lately and love the feeling of being cleaned out. But are they safe to do while not cleansing? I have been eating all the normal things that I normally eat lately, meat, baked goods, fruit, veggies..pretty much everything. I don't eat junk food or very unhealthily, but I'm defintly at the time not eating only clean foods. Please no answers on your opinions of colonics whether they are safe or not, I already know that they work well for me. I'm just wondering if people get them while they are not cleansing, Thank you :)

Answers:

Hi Rissa, yes you can take a colonic while not cleansing. I know several people that take them once a month along with enemas to help keep things moving.



I guess it is your health.
Colon cleansing has absolutely no medical benefit and is in fact harmful to the digestive system. Old science from the late 1800's when meat was the main food and people were constipated all the time. Not enough fruit and vegetables.
There is no build up of bad plaque, toxins, or sludge in a normal, reasonably healthy system.
If this was the case we would have people dying left and right from malnutrition since their small intestines couldn't absorb nutrients.
The majority of the water from food and what we drink is reabsorbed through the colon, if our colons were clogged we would all be walking around looking like sponges right?
Detoxing is ridding the system - liver, kidneys, and intestines of toxins both internal and environmental. Additionally, many toxins are stored in our fat cells so in order to truly "detox", you need to lose excess body fat as well.
Our liver and kidneys aren't clogged with toxins. Otherwise we would be dead.
The liver does in fact get layered with fat when we become overweight.
We "cleanse and detox" naturally 24 hours a day through respiration, sweat, liver, and kidneys.
We can help by eating a healthy diet with minimal added sugar and salt. Lots of fresh fruit, vegetables, whole grain foods, beans, peas, and brown rice keep a system as healthy as it can be.
Minimal alcohol, caffeine, soda.
Read food labels. If you can't pronounce it, don't put it in your body.
A healthy high fiber diet works every time.
Increases the speed and efficiency of the digestive system and helps the body rid itself of both internal and environmental toxins.
Did you know the digestive system is one of the largest contributors to our immune system?
Cleanses actually flush out the beneficial bacteria and enzymes in the digestive system. Search gut flora to learn about the beneficial bacteria we need in our colon.
We have more beneficial bacteria in our digestive systems than all the cells in our bodies!
You already know about the gas, cramping, and bloating you experience when you start eating again and the body has to rebuild this bacteria population. And this makes you feel clean?
Spend your money in the produce department.
Good luck.
