Your Colon: Is it making you sick or healthy?

We always hear this phrase stated. Many of you are still examining the application of the meaning behind this and how it applies to self. In our society the internal cleansing of the body is seldom elaborated upon or even given the slightest thought of the importance of such. We are trained to focus on the symptoms the body is manifesting without searching for the cause. If we would examine this procedure, it is logically apparent that if the cause of a problem were eliminated, so to would the evidence of all symptoms be non-existent. With this in mind let us explore the function of the colon and why the phrase *Death Begins In The Colon* is acclaimed.

The purpose of the colon as an organ of elimination is to collect all fermentative and putrefactive toxic waste from every part of the anatomy and by the peristaltic waves of the muscles of the colon, remove all solid and semi-solid waste from the body. Simply speaking, The waste matter will not be eliminated, if we fail to keep the colon clean and functioning properly. Our system will reabsorb the toxic residue and numerous health problems will be caused in the areas of digestion, liver, gall bladder, heart, vision, acne, prostate, body odor, arthritis, etc.. A step beyond this is, of course, degenerative disease.

The colon is a natural breeding ground for bacteria which, in turn, is employed to neutralize, dissipate, avoid and prevent a toxic condition from developing in the colon. However, there are two types of bacteria: the healthy scavenging type known as bacci coli and the pathogenic or disease-producing kind. When elimination in the form of regular bowel movements (2-3 bowel movements daily) does not occur, then fermentation and petrifaction (toxemia), which could best be defined as the process by which the body re-absorbs the waste back into its system and becomes poisoned from its own waste occurs. Not eliminating properly or being constipated is like having our city garbage collector go on strike for days on end. What happens? The garbage piles up, rots, putrefies, begins to smell and then the worms and parasites begin to appear. The same thing happens in our sewage system.

We know that the colon is the culprit to many of our health problemsIn order to be truly healthy and pain free we must entertain the concept of treating the whole body. Simply suppressing what the body is desperately trying to communicate to us is not the answer. It is like shutting the alarm off of a clock and believing that we are making time stand still by doing so. If we would only view sickness and disease as an opportunity to listen and heal the body, then we would see sickness as an asset and act upon it to bring harmony to the body.

There are many ways in which we can assist in our own healing process. There is nutritional supplementation, juice and enzyme therapy, change of diet colon hydrotherapy, etc. that I would be happy to assist you with in order for you to take control of your life, your body, and your health. Do not wait to get on the road to Better Health.
