Good afternoon,
With thunder rolling and booming, I am reminded of my Colon sometimes when digestion is not up to par. When I have eaten foods that may cause excess gas or foods that are overcooked that are not in their natural, organic states. So today I did some research on what is the colon and this is some information that I thought we all need to review for a healthy body.
The Human Colon
The colon is also called the large intestine. It doesn’t digest food. It’s the part of the digestive system responsible for processing waste out of the body. Loose waste material travels along the four parts of the large intestine where it is converted into solid material.
Tracking the process, from the small intestine, waste material enters the Ascending colon and travels up to the Transverse colon which transports it across the body to the Descending colon. The material is processed down the Descending colon to the Sigmoid colon and out of the body through the rectum. In a healthy colon, along the journey loose liquid material has become solid waste.
During this slow passage nutrients and water are removed and the waste is made solid for easy expulsion from the rectum. In an optimally functioning colon, nutrients are absorbed properly and toxins are expelled with the waste and nothing becomes impacted along the way.
A healthy diet ensures a healthy functioning colon. The best diet will consist of organic foods in the various groups:
Fiber
Fruit
Vegetables
Whole grains
Beans
You can even get healthier meat when you look for organic, range-fed beef.
Physical activity is important to maintain an active digestive system. Remember, a sluggish system retains toxic waste in the body for longer than is healthful.
Drink purified, oxygenated water for your best health. Water helps to flush the body of toxins as does the added oxygen. Water is helps the colon to process soft stool, and not dry fecal matter which becomes difficult to excrete.
Even the most health conscious person can have bouts of irregularity because it’s not just your diet that can through your digestive system out of balance. Travel, sleep changes, and stress are factors that can affect your digestion. Consider cleansing your colon periodically to clear the waste that gets trapped.
Oxy-Powder® is working wonders for many people. It provides oxygen to the bowels which breaks up impacted matter so that it can be passed from the body. A clean colon is a healthier colon.
This is another reason why raw vegetables and organic raw fruits must be an important part of every meal. We need to take care of our colon health and this will improve our health as well.
