The intestinal system features the colon (or bowel) —a muscular organ about five feet long. The colon extracts water from the waste matter and sends it back to the bloodstream. Nerves and muscles in the colon regulate the time it takes waste matter to travel through the colon and out of the body. Friendly bacteria in the bowel aid in the breakdown of waste.

Colon health is largely affected by diet, fiber and water. We eat more sugar and processed foods than ever before and we regularly abuse our bodies with various stimulants, sedatives, acid neutralizers and other prescription medications. In addition, we are all exposed to thousands of toxins and chemicals on a daily basis (air and water pollution, cleaning products, cosmetics, etc. ).  All of this impacts bowel health and function.

For health and well-being, it is essential that this “sewer system” of the body receives regular cleaning and preventative care.
