The average person's diet is horrible and loaded with useless carbohydrates and sugars that stall the metabolism and have created the worst obesity epidemic the world has ever known. That is the obvious problem of our eating habits but there is an unseen hazard that lurks within our bodies caused by bad diet and lifestyle choices—colons that are impacted with the byproducts of the foods we eat creating poisonous toxins.
The toxins that build up in our bodies as a result create a high stress level for our systems and are even a leading factor in our basic inability to lose weight and keep it off. Even more serious health issues like kidney and liver malfunctions, diseases such as diabetes, candida, hemorrhoids, and the tendency to catch colds and the flu are all heavily related to the state of your colon's health. Improper colon health due to diet is also a leading factor in the 2nd leading cause of cancer in the world—colon cancer.
Cleansing the Impurities out of the colon is not a fast instant procedure. It can take months to properly cleanse and then should be incorporated into a lifestyle. Along with the helpful cleansing products and other materials such as enemas eating properly can also facilitate good colon health and cleansing. It is important to adjust your lifestyle as well as providing a 'temporary' fix by total cleansing and some of the healthy eating tips have both a long term, and a cleansing means to keep your body working properly. Other eating tips have no ill effects and are the same for both lifestyle and cleansing.
Drink Water
As a society we drink everything but the very elixir of life—water. Water is essential to every function of your body from brain to heart and digestion to proper blood flow. Water also helps flush your system of impurities and is a great diet aid as well.
As a lifestyle: A normal healthy individual should drink at least 8 cups of water daily.
For the benefit of flushing out your system: Drinking 16 to 20 cups of water daily is recommended.
Where's The Beef?
The one place it should not be is in your system. Red meat is hard to break down and remnants can remain in the colon for years.
As a lifestyle: Avoid all red meats. You can get plenty of protein from fish, chicken, legumes, and nuts.
For the benefit of cleansing: Eliminate red meat altogether while you are cleansing.
Fill up on Fibers
The normal person's diet contains less than half of the daily recommended fiber amount. Even the recommended amount of fiber is at a very minimum. Boosting the fiber in your diet makes drinking extra water imperative to avoid complications.
As both a lifestyle and during cleansing: Consume brown rice, leafy vegetables and beans as a regular part of your daily diet.
Fruits and Veggies
There are no bad side effects to eating too many fruits and vegetables. These are the foods your body craves and not only provide nutrients but also extra water as well.
As both a lifestyle and during cleansing: You should consume at least 8 servings of fruits and vegetables daily.
Cut Out the Caffeine
Caffeine is a drug and highly addictive. Not only does it produce nasty withdrawal symptoms it increases the toxicity in your system and promotes weight gain and cravings.
As both a lifestyle and during cleansing: completely eliminate all caffeine products from your diet including: coffee, black teas, soda containing caffeine, chocolate. This list includes decaffeinated coffee as even though the caffeine is greatly reduced there is no such thing as a completely decaffeinated coffee.
What to drink: Choose green teas, fruit or vegetable juices, or the water you should be consuming on a daily basis in place of all of your normal caffeine products.
