Constipation part 2

Ok, so I said in my last blog that I would give you some more options for relief of constipation.  My favorite for someone who suffers regularly and has bowel movements every 2 days or worse is Dr Schulze's Formula 1.  Dr Schulze's Formula 1 is taken in the evening at meal time WITH food and the next day you should have a bowel movement naturally, not running for the restroom with diahrea. If you don't have a bowel movement the next day you increase it to 2 capsules and so on until you are comfortable with what bowel release you are having.  The next one that I personally recomend is Mag07.  This is not as strong as the Formula 1 but very helpful to clients with constipation.  It is Magnesium and Oxygen in a veggie capsule.  These you can take in the am or pm or both on an empty stomach.  You can also take digestive enzymes prior to your meals to help aid in digestion and absorption and help with bloating, indigestion and heart burn.  But don't forget to eat your GREENS!  This is sooooooo very important.  If you don't eat your greens you should at least drink a green drink.  Green drinks are available at almost all health food stores, and come in a powder form that you mix with water. You should drink 2-3 of these a day.  The Dr. Schulze's can be found either at Healing Waters 661-755-0617 or from Dr. Schulze directly at Herbdoc.com .  Mag07 can either be purchased at Healing Waters or Aerobic Life.

Constipation

Ooooh Noooo, I said it, CONSTIPATION.  Most people don't even know that they are constipated.  It's just the thought of talking about our Poo!  Constipation is actually just not having 1-3 easy bowel movements a day.  These bowel movements should move easily and quickly.  Not a 30 minute trip to the bathroom with your favorite novel. Bread, cheese, salt, refined sugar, white flour, candy, cookies, pastries, carbonated beverages, alcohol, processed foods, and fried foods can all exacerbate constipation. . But there are many foods that help to maintain regularity including fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh juices, prunes, prune juice, whole grains, sprouts, fibrous food, water, herb tea, essential fatty acids (such as olive oil, avocado, and fish oil), and lemon or lemon water.  In my next blog I will give you information on other supplements that can be used to help the digestive tract and relieve constipation.  Colonics for someone who is constipated is a huge relief almost immediately.  We always recomend that you try everything naturally that you can, but cleaning your colon and keeping it clean is going to have a huge impact on your health for life.

The importance of Colonics during a cleanse

Quite often we find ourselves feeling the need to do a fast, a cleanse or any type of detox. These are all great ideas and I recomend everyone try it at least once to not only clean the body but to also clear the mind and soul. When we do these cleanses we often believe that just making the effort to take the capsules or juice the veggies is all we need to do. After all, isn't this enough work in itself already? Yes, it may be work, but the effects are so much better when combined with a colonic. The open system or LIBBE as we call it does bowel training (when using bowel training protocol), it excersizes the colon (which is a muscle) and cleans the colon. When doing this you open the eliminatory pathway for all of your organs to release toxins. So if you are cleansing and trying to get rid of toxins this speeds up the process. If you release toxins that your body is trying to get rid of, you then free up the energy that your body would be using trying to do the same thing. You now will have much more energy for yourself so you won't feel so lethargic and beat down. It is recomended that you do at least 3 during a cleanse. One at the beginning to "jump start" the process. One in the middle to keep the flow of toxins moving out of your body and one on the last day (or as close as you can) to get rid of the any toxins left that may be on their way out before you start re-introducing your body to foods again. You can do them daily depending on the length of the cleanse. If you are doing them daily during your cleanse a probiotic daily is recomended.

What is a colonic like?

Many people want to know exactly what it's all about and what is going to happen.  It's the thoughts in our mind that make us nuts over it.  The process is easy.  I will explain to you what I have in my office, an "OPEN SYSTEM" or "LIBBE".  First of all, the rectal tube is smaller than your pinky, you insert it yourself, we teach you how, it only goes in 1 to 1.5 inches and you don't really feel it once it's in.  This is very dignified and can be almost completely private if you wish it to be.  Once the tube is inserted and you are covered you push the page button (in my ofc. other offices may have a different set up).  We come into the room and will start the water.  Water gently fills up the Large Intestine otherwise known as the colon.  The water stimulates the colon (wich is a muscle) to do it's job.  The colons movement is called peristalsis.  It's a rolling, squeezing motion that pushes everything down and out.  Your body releases (a bowel movement), into the basin ( you are laying on a comfortable table with basin built in with plumbing - totally sanitary, no mess).  Everything releases around the tube and into the basin. Nothing goes back thru the rectal tube that is putting water into you and the tube does not get pushed out! Then water will automatically fill back into the colon for you to do this again and again.  This system is gravitation fed, so water is drained into you, not forced into you.  You continue this process for approximately 40 minutes. 

Benefits:

There is a 3 fold benefit doing it this way.  1st of all, you clean out your colon wich is what every one comes in for originally.  2nd is the bowel training that your colon gets.  Your colon is a muscle not a baloon.  Everything in there is meant to go out, not stay inside!  So it's almost like taking that muscle to the gym.  The 3rd and most beneficial in MY OPINION is that when you clean out the colon you open up the eliminatory pathway for all your organs to release their toxins.  Your liver can release toxins, your kidneys (you may feel the urge to urinate during this), your lymphatic system, your small intestines can release stuff into the large intestine to be released, your lungs can release toxins, your gallbladder if you have one can release toxins.  We are made perfect and if we keep our sewage system (Colon) clean, then all of our organs can funtion better.

Why Colonics?

Scary words here, Colonic or Colonhydrotherapy! It's ok, I know your stomach tightened and the thought is frightening.  It really isn't! Had someone told me 5 years ago that I would have even had a colonic I would have laughed and said, yeah right! If someone would have told me I would own my own business doing colonhydrotherapy I would have fallen off my chair and told them to order another drink. Well here I am 5 years later and not only do them all the time, I have become a colon hydrotherapist and own my own facility.  In short, when you clean out the colon you open the eliminatory pathway for all of your organs to release their toxins.  Most doctors don't agree with them because they say there isn't enough scientifical proof that they help.  I have about 800 clients that could argue that, but no one asks them.  Not to mention the millions of other colonic clients that are around the world.  Today all I am going to leave you with is a comparable setting that most people can relate to.

Our Colon is our Sewage system!
So....... let's say your main sewage line from your house to your street is backed up.  Theres not a whole lot that you can do in your house now is there.  So who is going to shower or bathe if it will back up thru the drain?  Can you brush your teeth or wash your face with the sink backing up?  Can you use the toilet?  Can you cook if you can't wash dishes?  I think you get my point.  Now your colon is your sewage system and just like our plumbing lines we usually don't know anything is wrong until we get very sick.  So if we eat and our body tries to get rid of the waste (after it has used all that it can from the food), but our body isn't releasing it, what do you think is going to happen?  There are plenty of things that can happen. 

Here are just a few,

Constipation
Fatigue
Depression
Frequent Colds
Bad Breath
Indigestion
Obesity
Headaches
Acne
Eczema
Dark circles under the eyes
and the list goes on.

One of my clients said to me, "It's amazing that we brush our teeth and clean our mouths when we put clean food in so we don't get sick and have all that bacteria in our mouths, but cleaning the colon is so foreign to us and so scary when it is a necessity."  I thought her observation was incredible and I use it often now.
