Many people are now becoming more health aware and are taking the time to cleanse the body from the inside out with what is known as colon cleansing.
Although there are many variations or methods the one most people tend to try first is colon cleansing tea.
These teas are made up of herbs and plants that when mixed together detoxify the digestive track which promotes good health and well being.
These teas have a laxative effect to clean out any stored matter which has been building up in the intestines.
A lot of times this matter causes unwanted and harmful germs to grow especially in the colon.
Another reason to cleanse is to remove mucoid plaque build up from the walls of the colon.
This plaque can lead to constipation, malnutrition, toxins leaking out into the bloodstream, and is a great breeding ground for parasites, pathogens and bad bacteria.
We need to remove these from the colon so that the good bacteria can return.
The good bacteria is responsible for processing food particles and waste products, protects against harmful bacteria and it synthesizes the various vitamins which leads to proper digestion.
Colon cleansing teas usually contain all natural herbs and plants like senna, ild rhubarb cassia seed, green tea and jasmine flower to name a few.
Depending on the brand and strength of the blend will determine how much you need to drink, how often you need to take it as will the state of your colon.
It is best to follow the instructions given by your practitioner or supplier.
There may be side effects such as bloating, headaches, heartburn, shifts in appetite, skin break outs and diarrhea and other such symptoms while drinking the tea.
As with most procedures it is best to speak with your doctor or medical advisor to get an expert opinion before you begin the procedure.
