How do I properly perform a colon cleanse?

Updated over a year ago

Colon cleanse is a recognized procedure from naturopathy, which helps restore the symbiosis of intestinal bacteria and build a healthy intestinal flora. The procedure is suitable not only for people who are already ill, but also as a preventive measure to strengthen the immune system.


Reasons for Colon cleanse

It makes sense to carry out a colon cleanse if any of the following apply:

  • Digestive problems (constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, bad breath)

  • Fungal infections (of the skin, intestines, oral and pharyngeal mucosa, vagina)

  • Taking antibiotics (after cessation) and medications (therapies, painkillers, long-term medication)

  • Starting a healthier diet and lifestyle

  • Lack of energy, tiredness, lethargy

  • Rheumatism and joint problems

  • Allergies and food intolerances

  • Autoimmune diseases

  • Respiratory infections (colds, corona, bronchitis, pneumonia)

  • Depression, anxiety, sadness

  • Menopausal symptoms

  • Mentruation complaints

  • Optimization of skin glow (dark circles under the eyes, impure skin, flabby connective tissue, dull hair)


Goals of a colon cleanse

The goals of colon cleansing are:

  • Regeneration and healing of the intestinal mucosa

  • Reduction of inflammatory processes in the intestine

  • Regulation of intestinal flora and thus regulation and strengthening of the immune system

  • Elimination of harmful intestinal bacteria and intestinal fungi and their metabolic toxins

  • Prevention of the expansion of metabolic waste products and fecal stones

  • Activation (in case of constipation) and calming (in case of diarrhea) of peristalsis

  • Relief of liver and kidneys


Materials for a colon cleanse

For a simple form of intestinal rehabilitation, three different basic ingredients are needed: Psyllium husk powder, healing clay and a probiotic.

Psyllium husk powder

Psyllium husks in the form of finely ground psyllium husk powder are used in colon cleansing to loosen deposits in the digestive system and to dissolve toxins and metabolic products.

Achten Sie darauf, dass dem Flohsamenschalenpulver keine Süßungsmittel oder anderweitige Zusatzstoffe beigesetzt sind. Diese können die Wirkung der Darmsanierung mindern.

We recommend the "Flohsamenschalen gemahlen" by Zirkulin for colon cleansing.

Healing clay

Healing clay is a mineral clay that binds the deposits and toxins dissolved by the psyllium seed husks, as well as harmful bacteria. These can then be excreted with the stool.

Heilerde ist eine Mineralerde, welche die von den Flohsamenschalen gelösten Ablagerungen und Toxine sowie schädliche Bakterien an sich bindet. Diese können dann mit dem Stuhl ausgeschieden werden.

We recommend the "Luvos-Heilerde imutox Pulver" by Luvos for colon cleansing.

Make sure that the healing clay is powder in the variant "imutox" instead of granules.

Probiotic

A probiotic consists of beneficial intestinal bacteria for building a healthy intestinal flora.

We recommend the "Bacteri 17 Expert Resilience" by Bonusan for colon cleansing.


Duration & frequency of the colon cleanse

We recommend the intestinal cleansing for 4 weeks. Depending on the lifestyle and diet, the intestinal cleansing can be carried out regularly once or twice a year, so that no metabolic waste products and toxins can be permanently stored in the body and the organism remains healthy.
