Fiber

A high-fiber diet may greatly relieve constipation. Experts agree that the necessary daily fiber intake is 25 to 35 grams for those with constipation-prone irritable bowel.

Fiber is recommended because of its water-attracting qualities that can retain water in the stool, making it softer and easier to eliminate. Fiber speeds up the rate stools move through the large bowel or colon. This works in conjunction with the constipation sufferer drinking at least 64 ounces of water per day. Dehydration is a major cause of constipation. It is also recommended that one eliminate or severely restrict the intake of coffee, tea, and carbonated soft drinks.

There are two main types of fiber—soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber has a cholesterol-lowering effect on the body. Also, this type of fiber helps those with diabetes control their blood sugar.

Even though fiber often relieves constipation, not every high-fiber diet works successfully. Some foods actually contain gas-producing fibers that can create more discomfort from gas than discomfort caused by constipation, so caution is in order.

Fiber is found in whole grain products, fruits, vegetables, and meat alternatives such as nuts, dried peas and beans.

The insoluble fiber found in whole grain wheat products is the most effective in helping to regulate bowel movements. Good sources include whole wheat bread, whole wheat crackers, wheat bran muffins, and breakfast cereals containing wheat bran. The insoluble fiber found in whole wheat products is preferable in creating a high-fiber diet.

Gas Forming Foods

Constipation and Gas often go together and both can make life miserable. Here is a list of foods which tend to be gas-forming that one should consider eliminating or limiting until they notice improvement. This list includes but is not limited to all raw vegetables, including salads, cooked vegetables such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, corn, cucumbers, dried beans and peas, including black-eyed peas, kidney beans, lentils, fruits such as unpeeled apples, avocados cantaloupe, beer, hard-boiled eggs, nuts, popcorn, seeds, soft drinks, and wheat germ.

Some foods which may prove to be less gassy and/or cause little or no constipation include but are not limited to cooked vegetables such as asparagus, beets, carrots, green beans, green peas, mushrooms, squash, sweet potatoes, yellow beans, zucchini, fruits such as peeled apples, soft, ripe bananas, grapefruit, kiwis, ripe nectarines, oranges, ripe peaches, and ripe pears.

Exercising regularly, say three or four times per week, can have a dramatic effect on constipation and your overall digestive health. Exercise helps to increase your metabolism which, in turn, helps to regulate and normalize digestion function.

Probiotics can play a key role in natural constipation relief. Probiotics are, in essence, “good bacteria”. A more technical definition of probiotics is live microorganisms that provide healthy benefits when ingested by the host. In recent studies, probiotics were found to reduce constipation severity in the form of increased bowel movement. Probiotics help to balance the intestinal flora in the gut which is essential to healthy digestive function. Probiotics are also helpful in combating irritable bowel syndrome which often leads to chronic and/or severe constipation.

Squatting is the natural position best for elimination of the stool. You may want to consider placing a stool to elevate your knees during the defecation process. You can purchase an especially-designed stool to place in your bathroom as a natural aide in the elimination process.

Supplements such as magnesium and aloe vera have proven to be useful tools in combating constipation. Both aloe vera and magnesium come in capsule and liquid form. The liquid form may be easier to absorb and thus prove to be more beneficial in relieving chronic constipation.

Significant research exists that negative emotions are stored in the colon and are a major cause of constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, and other digestive disorders. Stress takes many forms, but it has been proven that stress affects normal gut functioning. Muscle tension can alter the normal rhythms of the bowel, leading to constipation. If constipation is caused or partially caused by a “tightening of the body” or “an inability to deal with stress,” then constipation could well be the end result.

Many doctors now believe that patients with chronic constipation are much more likely to suffer higher rates of depression and anxiety. Two holistic modalities that might help are Emotional Freedom Technique and BodyTalk. Both of these are eclectic modalities that may involve tapping techniques, affirmations, and acupressure, a modality similar to acupuncture without the needles.

During an Emotional Freedom Technique session, you would tap on certain neurological points while saying a specific affirmation such as “Even though I suffer from constipation, I now choose to have easy and frequent bowel movements”. You would tap on certain neurological points while repeating the desired affirmation three times. You would then simply say “constipation” while continuing to tap on certain neurological points. Body Talk uses similar tapping technology but is a far more-involved process. Both techniques have proven successful in eradicating or improving constipation, irritable bowel, and other digestive disorders in sufferers who found no relief elsewhere, particularly where negative emotions were a root cause.

1. Ozonated Magnesium Oxides: Ozonated magnesium is the only form of the essential mineral that is capable of releasing nascent oxygen into the digestive tract and bloodstream. Therefore, the oxygen produced by Oxy-Powder® can fulfill its assigned task of aiding your digestive health. Many lesser grade colon cleansing products generate an abrupt chemical reaction and this leads to an urgent need to find a bathroom quickly; but Oxy-Powder® provides a steady, controllable stream of oxygen into your body over at least an 18-hour period.

Dietary magnesium is required by enzymes for activation, elevates cellular metabolism, and is also involved in the production of RNA which is transcribed from DNA and then begins translating genes into proteins. Although a small amount of dietary magnesium may be obtained from Oxy-Powder®, in this instance magnesium is used primarily as a carrier so the monatomic oxygen can be released into the intestinal tract over an extended period.

2. Natural Citric Acid: Primarily a catalyst for triggering the oxygenation process in Oxy-Powder® (when combined with the hydrochloric acid in your stomach), this natural compound can be obtained from fresh oranges, lemons, limes, and other acidic fruit. Citric acid works as a chelating agent to remove heavy metals (poisons) from the bloodstream. The high solubility and practically zero toxicity of citric acid makes it a perfect complement to Oxy-Powder®’s other ingredients and it promotes their healthful handiwork. The natural citric acid used in our products is derived from non-GMO sources.

3. Organic Germanium-132: Organic Germanium-132 oxygenates living tissue for improved physiology and performance. Because this specific form of Germanium is the only non-toxic variety, it should not be confused with other types that have proven detrimental for ingestion by humans such as Germanium Dioxide. Germanium-132 is found naturally in ginseng, aloe vera, shiitake mushrooms, broccoli, tomato juice, and garlic and may help explain their widely established positive health benefits. The inclusion of these ingredients in traditional herbal remedies may have resulted from the presence of a naturally occurring mineral.

Germanium-132 also boosts the immune system by activating dormant macrophages to phagocytize (digest) cellular debris and viruses and also motivate other immune cells into action. GE-132 can be made into an extremely pure semiconductor and has demonstrated remarkable potential as a bactericide, so there may be some benefit as well for improved neural response and resistance to germs. These many reasons merit the addition of Germanium-132 to the formula of the multi-faceted supplement Oxy-Powder®.

4. Organic Acacia Gum: Listed on the label under – other ingredients (not an active ingredient) and used as an organic flow agent. Dr. Group shook up and revolutionized the natural product manufacturing industry by refusing to add toxic fillers, binders and excipients in his products such as the common toxic flow agent magnesium stearate. He researched many substances which could be used, and developed and tested all natural approaches and replacements using either organic diatomaceous earth or organic acacia gum. Unfortunately, manufacturers are still using cheap, easy and toxic compounds in their formulations.

“No More Feeling Sluggish!”

I am a thirty year old male who has anything but a healthy diet. Fried foods, meat and other such unhealthy food choices have taken a toll on my body, as they would do to anyone. I ordered my first bottle of Oxy-Powder® and the results are incredible. I am not being paid to say this, I just want others to experience the benefits of this miracle supplement. After the first day of trying Oxy-Powder®, I feel like I did when I was in my early teens. No more stress headaches, indigestion, NO MORE FEELING SLUGGISH.

My energy has gone up considerably, my mood also has been more positive. My fiancee has noticed a difference in my skin, and my eyes are brighter, in her words. The best part about this product is the gentleness, no cramping like regular laxatives, no bloating, just gentle cleansing. The coolest thing is that you can feel it working, like an oxygen bath for you intestine. I am on my third day, and haven’t felt this good in years. There are to many things to cover, I can’t urge you enough to try this, I feel like a new person.

Well now, I can sometimes have two movements a day and this is weeks after I stopped taking the pills. I feel great and am able to run two miles every other day without feeling exhausted. My wife wasn’t having daily bowel movements before she took the pills and now she has no problems.

“Prescription Medicine Did Not Work”

I have suffered with IBS for about three (3) years now. Prescription medicine did not work for me. So, I suffered. I ran across testimonials of Oxy-Powder® on CureZone.Com and went to your website. It sounded like something that would benefit me, so I ordered a bottle. It has been five (5) days on ten (10) pills a night, and WOW…I can tell a tremendous difference! No more pain or discomfort. I am really grateful to your company for making available such a great product. I will be a customer for life in the maintenance program!

“Improved My Mood and Sleeping Better!”

After 10 days of colon cleansing, while eating a normal healthy diet (fruits, veggies, grains, fish and raw dairy), I passed a nest of about 100 large red healthy worms. The nest was the size of my hand. Since then (4 weeks ago) I feel 10 years younger energy wise, my eyes are bright, whiter and no longer sunken. Transient aches and pains I’ve had are gone. Headaches, gone. My appetite has increased and, best of all, I have greater patience with my children and am sleeping better.

– Jennifer L., Williamsburg, VA

“Easy, Painless, and Quick”

I ordered Oxy-Powder® awhile back and just started using it. It is amazing. I’ve been dealing with constipation, bloating, and just generally feeling yucky for years. I have taken laxatives before that left me doubled over in pain and unable to go anywhere. Oxy-Powder® was the exact opposite. Easy, painless, and quick. I really feel cleansed, and I have had no cramping or discomfort. I wasn’t running to the bathroom constantly; the results were very predictable and left me feeling great for the rest of the day. It’s amazing how energized you feel when all the junk has been flushed out of your system. Thank you for a great product.

– Amanda R.

“Recommended to Patients”

While attending the ABEIM convention in Dallas, I purchased a bottle of Oxy-Powder® and got several brochures. I really like the action of the cleanser and would like to start several of my patients on it.

– Dr. Robert F. Moor, N. M. D, C. N. C Jefferson, Indiana

“Feel Younger, Better”

After 10 days of colon cleansing, while eating a normal healthy diet (fruits, veggies, grains, fish and raw dairy) – I feel 10 years younger energy wise, my eyes are bright, whiter and no longer sunken.

– Jennifer L., Williamsburg, VA

“No Diarrhea Feeling”

My experience with Oxy-Powder® was very positive. I used it during a 14 day fast while doing a few liver/gall bladder flushes and the results were EXACTLY as described. What’s great about it is that it does not give you the feeling of having diarrhea. It feels like everything is working properly but the difference is that the plaque is now liquefied. I plan on buying more. You’ve done a great job with this product.

– Paul G., 36, New York City, New York

“Prescription Medicines Not Working?”

I have suffered with bowel problems for about three (3) years now. Prescription medicine did not work for me. So, I suffered. I ran across testimonials of Oxy-Powder® on CureZone.Com and went to your website. It sounded like something that would benefit me, so I ordered a bottle. It has been five (5) days on ten (10) pills a night, and WOW…I can tell a tremendous difference! No more pain, or discomfort. I am really grateful to your company for making available such a great product. I will be a customer ’for life’ in the maintenance program!

[ View more testimonials from the Oxy-Powder® website ]

Oxy-Powder® is a combination of magnesium oxide compounds which have been ozonated and stabilized to release mono-atomic or nascent oxygen over a 12 to 18 hour period. The timed release ensures Oxy-Powder® will provide an adequate amount of oxygen but slowly, over an extended period, for consistent durability and improved colon cleansing action.

Stabilized oxygen is actually a non-technical term. An oxygen compound that is “stabilized” essentially contains atoms that are buffered so the formula can be encapsulated without the oxygen being released before it is needed. The result is a stable bio-available form of oxygen that can be taken as a colon cleansing dietary supplement.

Oxy-Powder® begins to slowly release nascent oxygen when introduced to an acidic environment such as your stomach. This release of oxygen continues throughout the digestive system as the ingredients are carried along with your food. The magnesium thus acts as a vehicle for transporting the oxygen throughout the body’s internal systems. In its oxide form, very little dietary magnesium is assimilated by the body; most of it passes through the intestinal tract, kidneys, and bladder, helping to cleanse everything along the way. Therefore, magnesium is the perfect vehicle for delivering mono-atomic oxygen.

Effects of an Unclean Colon

The organs working to reduce the toxic load on the body include the liver and several parts of the digestive systems. The colon is the chief organ in actually eliminating waste and creating an internal environment where nutrients can be easily absorbed into the bloodstream but with toxins being eliminated. When stress, poor nutrition, and environmental toxins overwhelm our bodies, disease may occur as the end result.

The colon in particular is a vital organ because it comprises much of the immune system and clears out hostile organisms not belonging in a healthy body. When the colon’s health is compromised, the cleansing process is slowed down or halted altogether. This is a dangerous situation because it can be the start of a number of debilitating diseases. This occurs because the body’s natural ability to heal itself, the immune system, has been hindered. In some cases, autointoxication may occur wherein toxins from the waste residing in the colon (for days and weeks) begin to be reabsorbed back into the bloodstream. Some signs a colon flush, or colon cleanse, is needed may include chronic constipation, diseases such as irritable bowel syndrome, or a hindered immune system.

Methods for Cleansing the Colon

Many ways exist for remedying a colon that is not functioning properly. Colon cleanses and colon flushes are a necessary measure for removing impacted fecal matter and pathogens as well as built up mucous. In many cases, a colon flush will clean the colon and will also enable the bowel to begin healing itself and functioning properly again. There are different ways to flush out the colon. For example, herbal remedies offer help by stimulating the bowel to expel wastes and by killing harmful bacteria and other pathogens. Oxy-Powder® is the best choice as it is a safe, non-habit forming formula that safely eliminates accumulated waste matter from the intestinal walls, while naturally stimulating the body to induce regular bowel movements.

Another type of colon flush includes colonic hydrotherapy. Colonic hydrotherapy consists of an internal bath of warm, filtered water that is pushed into the colon for cleansing out waste. This helps to eliminate unhealthy substances within the organ itself and helps to create an environment suited for self-healing. Colonic hydrotherapy should be performed by a professional health care practitioner trained in this specific procedure.

Another type of colon flush is an enema. An enema involves flushing out the colon by the forceful insertion of a liquid, usually combined with water, in order to stimulate a bowel movement. Different herbs and chemicals are used in different enemas. Coffee enemas are becoming more common as the coffee stimulates a cleansing and healing effect within the colon, and is a natural stimulant for elimination. Enemas containing enzymes are also used as a type of colon flush, as natural enzymes safely consume and break down built up waste material and expel it. Enzyme therapy as taken orally is also a method of flushing the colon. Enzymes naturally break down food particles that are difficult to digest and help remove them from the body.

Results of Colon Cleansing

Colon flushes serve the purpose of promoting healing and cleansing of the body’s vital elimination organ. After healing the colon, other bodily systems can also work more efficiently. A colon flush is a healthy measure to take if the colon’s functioning has been compromised lately. In order to help secure long-term health, exercise, a nutritious diet, and reducing stress from your life should also be practiced. Although you should seek a health care practitioner trained in the field before initiating these colon cleansing methods, you can begin to implement an improved diet and other positive lifestyle changes on your own. Take care of your colon and you will begin to notice the change in how you feel in practically no time at all!

1. Choose your colon cleansing product with care.

There are so many colon cleanse products on the market that choosing between them can be a bit difficult. It is worthwhile doing a bit of research before choosing one. Not all cleansing kits offer the same benefits and achieve the same results. However, these herbs are safe so even if the blend doesn’t work as well as you would like, you can just try another product. colon health is so important that it is worthwhile persisting until you find a product that works well for you.

A Little about Body Cleansing

Body cleanse helps in giving the body a new boost after all the atrocities committed on it, like unhealthy eating, alcohol, etc. If you have quit alcohol, smoking, drugs, etc. body cleansing is a good way of throwing the toxins out of the body. Many a times, it is so observed that the harmful substances remain in the body for years after you have given up the bad habit. There is a misconception about who should do body cleansing. It is assumed that it should be done by people who have unhealthy habits however, it is not so. Even people who follow a healthy lifestyle should go in for a body cleanse, because they are also exposed to multitude of chemicals and toxins. The most important advantage of body cleansing is, that you keep the diseases at bay. At the same time, the body is able to heal and clean itself well later. There are multiple ways to cleanse your body naturally. Let’s find out what are they.

How to Cleanse Your Body Naturally

The most simplest way to cleanse your body naturally is with water. Water is the best cleanser of the human body. Although we keep reading every where, that we should consume at least 8 to 10 glasses of water everyday, very rarely do we follow it. If you want to flush your system clean, make sure you consume at least 10 to 12 glasses of water, apart from the other liquids that you want to consume. Read about natural cleansers for the body, here.

When you say you want to rest, do you give your body sufficient amount of rest as well? Do you know there are downtimes in big factories? Our body is also a machine, it also deserves to rest for a day. For it to rest, you will have to fast. There are different types of fasts, which you can undertake. Some of the types are water only fasts, vegetable juice fasts, fruit juice fasts or only vegetables or only fruits. It is recommended to fast once a week, to help the body in self healing. Some people do also undertake longer fasts, but they should be done only under medical supervision. After the fast, you should make sure you eat fresh, healthy and nutritious food. There are some, who recommend consumption of organic food, as it is free of harmful pesticides, insecticides, growth hormones, sulfates and preservatives. If that is not possible, we can at least make sure, that we eat fresh food.

When you are in the process of cleansing your body naturally, the most important part is the colon. If the colon is clean, majority of the body is clean as well. Hence, if the need be you may want to try enema for colon cleanse. I would, however, recommend you consume foods, that cleanse your body. These foods are high in fiber, as fibers keeps the gastro-intestinal tract empty. Make sure you make vegetables and fruits a major part of your diet. There are also cleanse your body diets, but I would recommend, that you talk to your health care professional before you start on any one of these diets. Read about homemade colon cleanse, here.

Often our body becomes a home to a number of parasites. There are a number of medications, that are available to cleanse the body of these parasites. However, it is observed that these parasites leave eggs in our bodies. To cleanse the body of these eggs, cloves can be used as a natural parasite cleanse. If there are adult parasites in the body, you can make use of pumpkin seeds. They are said to be very beneficial. Read about human parasite cleanse here.

To clean the liver, bitter tasting food items are said to work wonders. Especially, lemon is of great use. You may want to try fruits, which have a bitter-sweet or tangy taste to them. They will cleanse the liver as well as stop the toxins from spreading to other parts of the body.

I hope now you have understood how to cleanse your body naturally. For all times water is the best cleanser, which you can make use of. A small tip would be to decrease the size of your meals and increase water consumption, while eating just for a couple of days. This will help you to cleanse your body naturally of the toxins and impurities present in it.

If you’re considering colon cleansing for the first time, the choices can seem overwhelming. Herbal cleanses, oxygen cleanses, fiber programs, specialized diets, fasting and more are all on the colon cleansing market. No matter what kind of cleanse you end up doing, you can improve your results with the advice in these 5 tips.

1. Before you cleanse, first find out how much you really need a colon cleanse. There are several factors including diet, age and overall health that determine how much you need and will benefit from a cleanse. E-mail me for a free health questionnaire that will tell you where you stand.

2. Once you know how much you need a cleanse, you can then choose the appropriate level. All types of colon cleansing can be done slowly and gently or more quickly and intensely. It’s important to know which level is best for you now in order to avoid overburdening your body with toxins as the body cleanses itself.

3. Prepare well for any type of colon cleanse by changing your diet. No matter which kind of colon cleansing you choose, you can get better results by taking 3-5 days to prepare. During this time, it’s best to cut out all processed foods and eat at least 50% of your diet in fresh fruits and vegetables. It’s also helpful to cut out most if not all dairy products, meats and breads as they are mucous forming.

4. During your cleanse be patient and stay with it. Don’t expect to undo years of poor eating habits, stress or lack of exercise with a one time cleanse. You may need to cleanse several times before you achieve all your health goals.

5. Be prepared for changes. After your colon cleanse, don’t expect to want to eat the same things as you did before. Pay attention to how your body feels after you eat and allow your diet to change to foods that make you feel better.

If you have any doubts about colon cleansing, remember these words of Dr. Norman Walker, the inventor of vegetable juicing: “To have a clean colon is the best health insurance we can have.” Dr. Walker seemed to know what he was talking about – he had a healthy and productive life of over 100 years.
