The Importance of Cleansing To understand the importance of cleansing we must first visualize the large intestine or colon, one of the five eliminatory organs in the body. This magnificent organ in the lower abdominal area of the body when stretched and pulled is 5-6 feet in length and up to 6 inches wide. I want you to take a moment and imagine how much residual waste can be stored in such a massive organ. There are five eliminatory organs in the body, the lymphatic, the blood, the liver, the urinary tract and the colon. Of these five eliminatory organs the colon, or bowel, is the one that people relate most to cleansing. Cleansing of the bowel or proper bowel movements is critical to overall good health. The bowel is the trashcan of the body. If this organ is not functioning properly then a host of problems can occur. The body is designed to eliminate toxins, disease, fungus, chemicals and free radicals and bi-product of the products we consume. This mechanism in the body is designed to keep the bodily functions for normal living to continue in a comfortable and healthy state. When the elimination process is slower or stagnant, the other bodily functions, like metabolism, must slow down or stop due to the overabundance of these working mechanisms, much like a motor can over heat and seize rotation due to non-stop, continuous use. Studies show that individuals with healthy bowel movements live a more comfortable and disease free life then those with chronic troubled bowel history. When the bowel does not function optimally, the toxins stored begin to accumulate and back-up in the body. These toxins affect the efficiency of the other eliminatory organs creating a disease state environment in the body by lowering the pH of the organs into an acid state. When the pH of the body is in a continuous acid state, diseases can proliferate. Furthermore, the accumulated toxins begin to travel throughout the body via the blood and create a toxic environment for the body to defend, further stressing the body to work harder in this area (called the metabolic process) and leaving the immune response to be compromised for possible disease proliferation. By eliminating properly or cleansing frequently if working in or having exposure to a toxic environment, you can actually assist the body in removing these toxins and unwanted waste materials from the body so that over all good health can be maintained and a disease friendly environment in the body can be reduced. Many individuals believe in cleansing this organ with hydro-colon therapy, or enemas if constipation is prevalent. Although effective for a host of colon problems, these treatments can eliminate good bacterial flora and do not completely cleanse the system. It is important though to cleanse the bowel more rapidly then normal when cleansing the other four eliminatory organs, and if you desire to cleanse the liver, you must cleanse the bowel. If you want to cleanse the blood, then you should also cleanse the liver and the bowel. Or if the Lymphatic system needs cleansing, then also cleanse the blood, liver and bowel simultaneously. For example, if an individual was to contract a skin disorder such as sclerosis, then chances are the blood is eliminating some form of toxin, which is creating the skin disorder. Most individuals would then decide to cleanse the blood, possibly without cleansing the bowel and the liver simultaneously. This would be a big mistake. When cleansing any of the eliminatory organs, one must first realize larger then regular bowel movements. These recommended bowel movements are directing the toxins from the blood cleansing into the toilet. To further explain, when taking a blood cleanser, the blood is being cleansed of the toxins, which are now being taken from the blood by the liver, the liver is then passing the unwanted waste to the bowel and the bowel working optimally is eliminating the waste from the body into the toilet. This is what needs to happen. These unwanted toxins, which have created the sclerosis, should be eliminated from the body immediately. If not then an individual could auto-detoxify. This condition is the result of toxins being forced to travel throughout the system without proper elimination. In this case, the sclerosis could actually get worse. Auto-detoxification is another topic for another day, but some of the conditions caused by auto-detoxification can be fatigue, loss of concentration, tiredness and lethargic moods. One time I was lecturing in Hungary and an older lady stood up and ask if she was too old to cleanse her system and would it be dangerous. My answer was, 'well first of all, have you ever cleansed before?' Her answer was 'no'. I asked her her age, which she told me she was 80. I asked her if she had regular and timely bowel movements or was she troubled in this area. She advised that she had bowel movements every two to three days. She is a pretty example of an individual that should be taking bowel cleansers, not only to cleanse, but also to promote regular, daily bowel movements. So I asked her 'Do you have a trash can in your kitchen?' She responded 'yes'. I said, 'Can you imagine what that trash can would look and smell like if it hadn't been cleansed or eliminated for over 80 years?' Of course I think everyone at that lecture went home and cleaned their trashcans and cleansed their bowel. You should have heard the audience gasp. It was a time of realization. It is not harmful to cleanse with herbal or magnesium based cleansers at any point in your life. I have never heard anyone tell a story of not liking the results, at any age. Of course with children, you must be very careful. The magnesium-based cleansers are softer and more preferred for children and infants. Congestion in the bowel, is just plain uncomfortable and unhealthy and can be avoided with supplements designed for cleansing. Another audience member in Russia recently asked if taking other prescription drugs or supplements were a waste of money and time if they were on a cleansing program. The answer is, cleansers do not cleanse ingested food, supplements, prescriptions or any other nutrition from the body. When you consume your nutrition, your body utilizes these valuable resources as needed and burn them effectively for the desired results. When you cleanse you are cleansing the toxins, waste materials, stored mucous and phlegm, chemicals, fecal matter and other UNWANTED materials from the body. The nutritious ingredients and foods you have consumed are immediately assimilated and utilized by the body, leaving the unutilized or byproduct behind for elimination. These are the materials that if proper elimination is not being realized cleansing supplementation could assist the body in eliminating. Another question I get regularly is if these cleansers are habit forming. The truth is, some of the herbal cleansers contain herbs, like senna or aloes that have been proven to relax the colon muscles and these muscle then become accustom to this and these herbs are then needed regularly to promote bowel movements. If an individual wishes to cleanse the bowel, which can take two to three weeks to complete, then the effects of taking these herbs is temporary. Meaning they will promote larger then regular bowel movements, but the individual will return to a regular schedule after finalizing their cleansing program. If they have a history of normal daily or multiple daily bowel movements before taking the supplement, then they will continue to have normal daily movements after taking the cleanser as well. If an individual does not have regular, daily bowel movements, but instead has conditions such as spastic colon, or constipation, then I also say what do you like better, taking a bowel movement supplement every night before bed, or having elimination problems that can have a negative impact on your daily living. Most of the time my response is 'Are you addicted to constipation?' For a total system cleanse, try the 14-day Total Body Cleanse. This is a comprehensive body cleanser designed to cleanse all five eliminatory organs and parasites. If you wish to stay away from the herbal cleansers, then the option we have available is Oxy-Soft magnesium-based cleanser. Although not as powerful as the herbal cleansers, Oxy-Soft is a good choice for children and for those individuals who wish to have an alternative to herbal cleansers. Oxy-Soft is also effective for pregnant and lactating mothers. BWL-PRN is an herbal cleanser that is also effective and safe for pregnant and lactating mothers. I have been told that BWL-PRN is preferred to Oxy-Soft by many pregnant women needing elimination relief.
