Colon Cleansing

If a person is unable to take drugs normally sometimes doctors will give them the drugs through rectal suppositories. Why is this? Because the drugs will absorb into the blood stream quickly as they don't have to pass through the gastrantestinal system. If the drugs are admisistered this way they said to have a rapid uptake. They get into the bloodstream quickly.

In the same way years of undigested foods are built up in your colon. The decaying petrified toxic food is being re-absorbed into your bloodstream. Your body then tries hard to fight the toxins.

This is why it's so important to do a colon cleanse. I would recommend most people do one twice a year. Those who don't detox well probably 3-4 times a year. How do you detox? There are two ways one can go about a colon cleanse. The first is to buy products that help with this. Examples are: enemas, laxatives, strong herbal teas, powders and antiparasite pills. The second is through colon irrigation.
I posted a link of the colon cleanse system I've used over the past few years. I like it because it's easy to continue working while taking it and the fiber powder tastes awesome! During a detox you should drink lots of water and try to eat whole foods (fruits/veg.) no sugar, no flour, coffee, etc. I've decided to take a much further step this time and try colonics irrigation.

What is colonics irrigation? It works somewhat like an enama but with no odors or discomfort and lots more water. You lie on a table, a tube goes in your rectum and flushes up to 20 gallons of water inside. The therapist massages your abdoman then flushes out the fluids and waste through another tube. They may repeat a few times. It takes about an hour. This will be new for me as I've never had this done. I have read some awesome books about detoxing and natural ways to cure psoriosis - all of them recommend colonics. At first I thought I would be hummiliated to have to go through something like that - but have since come around to the idea. This really does make sense and I really do need to get everything out and then stop putting so much toxins in through what I eat, etc.

My first appt. is next Tuesday - yes right before Thanksgiving. I will let you all know how it goes. The first appt. is said to take almost 3 hours because they also do holistic nuitrition counseling. It is also recommended that a person with health issues (like psoriosis) have several sessions. I do not know how many times yet or how far apart - but I'll keep you posted. If you're courious the cost is similair to that of a 1 hour massage. ( I know - you just can't compare the 2 :-)
