George Malkmus has much to say about the colon, but let me highlight some of what he says here for you (from The Hallelujah Diet, page 180-181):
"Colon. Your colon is one of the most obvious routes for elimination. Quite simply, your colon's job is to remove water from fecal matter and expel that matter from your body... what we eat affects the efficiency of this process... A healthy colon is necessary for the body to function properly. An unhelathy colon can cause a plethora of problems and is a major source of toxins in the body. You need to cooperate with this elimination system by supporting it with food that will help it function powerfully. You must also drink lots of clean water and juices through the day. Occasionally, it may be helpful to use a colon-cleansing herbal blend to assist in removing the dead incrusted fecal matter. But once it is cleaned out, in most cases drinking enough juices and water and sticking with the 85 percent raw vegetable diet recommended in this book will be enough- along with exercise and deep breathing - to keep your colon working freely."
Fasting is a great cleanse for the colon. Let's keep things cleaned out and moving!
Here's to your health!

Switching to vegans and raw foods is not easy but a healthy alternative to eating meat. Plan a meal by searching online some easy to follow recipes.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I made the switch over four years ago and have enjoyed a much healthier lifestyle since I left out meat and went vegan! I have a diet now of 85% raw and only 15% cooked foods. I have eliminated the top 5 killer foods in my diet today! Praise the Lord! I look forward to seeking out the recipes you mention and visiting above. Thanks for your comment!
