Did you cleanse your colon today? Have you cleansed your colon in the past month? In the past six months?

Natural health practitioners have been recommending “cleanse your colon” for years. The naturopathic doctor, Dr. John Christopher was one of the early proponents of the concept. He created a series of internal organ cleanses that started with the colon cleanse. After someone did a colon cleanse, the next step was the liver cleanse. After the liver cleanse came the kidney and blood cleanse. And after these came any other organ that needed to be cleansed.

There are several symptoms that indicate that it’s time for you to cleanse your colon. Here is a list:

• smelly stools

• body odor

• headaches

• bloating

• gas

• hemorrhoids

• intestinal parasites

• constipation

• diarrhea

• Crohn’s disease

• gurgling in stomach

• skin rashes

• crawling sensations in the anus

• enlarged belly

• abdominal pain after eating

• unexplained abdominal pain

• past episode of parasites

• other abdominal related issues

• mean-spirited

• feeling as if you have to still go to the bathroom after a bowel movement

• feeling tense and irritated and don’t know why

• joint aches and pain

• frequent chiropractor appointments

Dr. John Christopher opened up the School of Natural Healing and taught thousands of people how to become their own herbalist. His coursework takes about three years. His colon cleanse formula was copied by many other people who put a twist to it here and there and created their own formula.

When thousands of people are taught how to cleanse the colon, those thousands go out and teach thousands more. The cycle continues. Now, 50 years later, the whole topic of why you should cleanse your colon has reached a tipping point. Ask ten of your friends if they have cleansed their colon and you will probably get a yes answer from between four to six of them. If they did it right, they would have done it again and again.

Why Colon Cleanse?

The importance of colon cleansing is obvious. You feel better when you’re not walking around with extra waste in the body. Your joints don’t hurt any more and they feel free, without having chiropractic adjustments. Your moods are up more of the time than not. You are lighter in weight. Your energy level is higher. Who wouldn’t want to cleanse their colon with all these benefits?

Five years ago, colon cleansing still hadn’t reached the status that it needed to be at. However, in the year 2009, major television shows started talking about the necessity of colon cleansing for health. The television show hosts brought people on their show that showed twisted bowels (due to bad diets), and even colonic hydrotherapists that could discuss what comes out of people’s rectums. It wasn’t pretty but it was real.

The sooner you cleanse your colon, the better you will feel. Plan your colon cleanse today. Look at your calendar and plot out the days when you can start.
