Cleanse the Body First

My ND (naturopathic doctor) recommends cleaning your intestines and colon every 4 months to keep your body regular and to reap the benefits of any healthy food you consume. I have just finished my detox this week. This consisted of me eating light, drinking lots of water, and taking a supplement that helps clean out my intestines and colon. Its called Super Colon Sweeper, and let me tell you it stays true to its name. You take it for 10 days 2 capsules before the 3 main meals. I lost 3 pounds during the process. I feel light and full of energy. So why do we need to detox?

When you consume food it doesn't always get digested properly and so it gets stuck in your intestines and colon, making you feel bloated and gain weight. This detox helps unstick all of the old food that has been sitting there for who knows how long and converts it to waste.

If you are think about changing your lifestyle to a healthier one this is the first step you should take. Not only will you lose weight but your body will be able to better absorb all of the nutrients you consume.
