"Restoring Colon Function For Maximum Health And Optimum Weight"
Dr. Frank B. Smoot, MA, DD
Congratulations on venturing into the most important but least talked-about area of health: colon care. No, it's not a very pleasant topic--unless you want to enjoy a long and happy life, that is!
Why would I give this report away for free? Because I know that having a clean, functional colon is SO important that I don't want there to be the slightest reason why someone would be without this information. It's literally a matter of life-and-death importance.
About 15 years ago, I had to face the fact that my own colon was not functioning very well. I eventually identified several reason why, including insufficient hydration, too much fat, too little fiber, the presence of alcohol, sugar, white flour, dairy... Well, you don't need to know all that stuff. But let me tell you about the symptoms that disappeared from my life forever when I restored my colon to its intended level of functioning:
There were lots more benefits, too, including much more energy. The bottom line: I got rid of numerous problems I never even knew were related to poor colon function. It took me about 4 weeks to see major improvements. I was so inspired that I still do about one cleanse a week.
But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me give you the details so you can get started, too. I also want to tell you that, however inconvenient it may now seem to do this cleanse, the benefits are almost beyond imagining. Every week on TV we hear about yet another person suffering with colon cancer. This is VERY preventable! And a clean colon is the very best form of prevention.
PREPARING YOURSELF
General - Eliminate all high-fat foods from your diet for the duration of this cleanse--and maybe for good. Also avoid sugar (except fructose), caffeine (don't panic--it's just temporary), alcohol, refined wheat products, and as much dairy as you can. You want to transition to a low-density, high-fiber diet gradually for about a week before you start the cleanse. Low-fat cuts of meat or chicken may be consumed -- in small quantities -- as desired.
Staying Healthfully Hydrated - This is always important and especially so during a colon cleanse. Drink eight 10-12-ounce glasses of water daily. Don't worry if it seems like too much at first. You'll adjust. Also don't worry that it's tough on your kidneys. Quite the contrary, they'll love it. Somewhere among those eight glasses, include:
THE SHAKE
No, it's not going to taste anything like a milkshake. Just put idea that out of your mind. But this simple shake will make a bigger difference in your life and your health than any other healthy thing you can do. The actual shake should contain:
Let's go over these items one by one before we combine them and drink them.
Aloe Vera Juice is a contact healer and moderate pain reliever / anti-irritant. It soothes irritated skin on contact and helps lubricate the cleansing process. It helps to prevent infection and mitigate existing infections, and also helps to expel undesirable parasites (yes, you probably have them, but that's another topic) when taken for several days.
The sole purpose for having Fruit Juice in the shake is to make it more palatable. The shakes really don't taste all that good, so it's best not to dawdle when drinking them. But adding your favorite non-citrus juice makes it a lot easier to swallow.
Liquid Chlorophyll is called "nature's green magic" because of its many wonderful healing properties. Chlorophyll is the major component of the "blood" of plant life. It contains the life force of the plant and many life-giving nutrients that are easily assimilated by the human body. Its molecular structure is very similar to that of hemoglobin, the human red blood cell.
Chlorophyll's effect is similar to that of iron; it's a natural blood builder. It cleanses, detoxifies, and deodorizes the bowel and the entire body. It is a natural antiseptic to the intestinal tract, and inhibits the metabolic action of carcinogens. Liquid chlorophyll is so valuable to the human body that many health experts recommend it be taken daily. After completing the cleanse for the specified period of time, you can mix one tablespoon of liquid chlorophyll with a glass of purified water and take your routine vitamins / minerals / herbs with it every day.
Hydrated Liquid Bentonite Clay is the best substance for drawing toxins out of the colon and keeping them bound on their way out of your body. It's not yummy, but it sure does its job.
Psyllium Hulls (powdered or ground) provide the "bulking agent" for the shake. They expand inside the intestinal tract and, in doing so, gently open up the crevices and pockets where undigested or impacted food can accumulate. This removal is crucial to the healing process. When organic matter (your undigested food) is allowed to stay in one place, it becomes a breeding ground for all sorts of bad things. You know how a trash can gets is it's not emptied and cleaned regularly? I don't mean to be unpleasantly graphic, but this really isn't a topic we can sweet-talk.
Your cells need nutrients to live well, function well, and reproduce well. If they can't do those things well, they'll do them poorly. Cells that don't reproduce accurately can lead to a host of problems, only one of which is cancer.
Be sure to drink lots of water, as the psyllium wants to absorb lots of it. Otherwise you may tend to become constipated. The best psyllium product I've come across is Yerba Prima's Colon Care Formula, available in most health food stores
The Lower Bowel Stimulant is the "propellant" for your cleanse. The function of the lower bowel stimulant is to keep the bulk of the shake moving through your colon. Many Americans, due to sedentary lifestyles and diets loaded with greasy, denatured foods, have developed sluggish colons. Not only does this condition promote the creation and retention of toxins, but it also inhibits the proper assimilation essential of nutrients. The lower bowel stimulant, in concert with the other ingredients in the shake, acts as a gentle but effective "roto-rooter" for colons that may become (or already are) toxic.
NOTE: A major key to the success of your colon cleanse will be the quality and type of the lower bowel stimulant you use. For my money, there is only one brand worth using -- a Nature's Sunshine® product called "LBS II" If you can't find it locally (it's only sold through distributors), let me know and I'll show you how and where to get it. It's worth specifying by name.
MAKING THE SHAKE
NOTE: Please read the instructions fully BEFORE making your first shake. First you'll need a 12-16 ounce glass jar with a screw-top plastic lid. (Old peanut better jars are ideal.) Then you'll be adding the 6 ounces of juice. Next you'll add the liquid chlorophyll, the aloe vera juice, and the bentonite clay, in no particular order. Finally you'll dump in the powdered psyllium hulls.
NOTE: Get the top screwed on FAST, shake it for no more than 8 seconds, and drink it IMMEDIATELY. No sipping, no lingering, no savoring. (Trust me -- It's NOT savory.) You just want to get it down fast, because the psyllium will quickly start to absorb the liquids and become kind of gelatinous. You want this process happening in your stomach, NOT in the jar.
NOTE: BEFORE you even mix the shake, you will have drunk 8 ounces of water within the previous 2 minutes. Along with this water you will take the 2-4 lower bowel stimulant (LBS) capsules. AFTER you mix and drink the shake you will immediately drink at least another 4 ounces of water to complete the process. Yes, you may feel bloated. But it's just for a minute. The taste goes away soon, too. But the benefits you're providing can last a lifetime. (Just do it.)
THE 6-WEEK REGIMEN (Beginners Can Just Opt For 2 Weeks)
You should be having 2-3 bowel movements per day when doing the cleanse. If not, increase the number of lower bowel stimulant capsules.(But never take more than 6 per day.)
MONITORING YOUR PROGRESS
You monitor your progress means monitoring your stools. You will know when your cleanse has done its job because you won't be seeing anymore hard or dark fecal matter. If you pay close attention to what comes out of you (which I very much encourage you to do), you will probably be shocked. I have heard friends describe seeing things in their stools (ranging from watermelon seeds to corn) that they haven't eaten in years.
I'm not kidding. I suggest you keep a stick close to the toilet so you can poke around and see what's actually coming out of you. It may seem a bit gross at first, but it soon becomes fascination. And when you really get hold of that idea that this junk has been in your own body--and could have stayed there indefinitely, doing heaven knows what--you begin to have a very different attitude toward these cleanses. Gratitude is not too strong a word.
OTHER NOTES: Feel free to load up on apples, pineapples, and papaya during the cleanse, and when not on a cleanse. All these fruits provide both fiber and the kinds of enzymes that are a natural aid to your digestion. Any fruits you like are fine for snacking.
DO YOU REALLY HAVE TO DO 6 WEEKS? - No. But the more you do, the better results you get. I would do at least one really serious go-round with this cleanse. Do it until you see real improvement in the quality of your stools. No more foul smells, no more dark, hard stuff, and no more constipation.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
As your cleanse progresses, you need to be monitoring your stools. You can't afford not to be tuned in to what's happening in your own body. Our culture tends to produce people who are sluggish, overweight, and heavily toxified. You do NOT want to be among them. Getting all the impacted crud out of your colon and restoring healthy colon function are of the utmost importance if you want a healthy and active life at a healthy weight.
Being healthy does NOT mean that you have to eliminate the "fun" foods. Absolutely everything I like is on my diet. But to restore the vitality and health that are your birthright requires you to FIRST actively UNdo what decades of living in this culture has almost certainly done to you. This is simply not optional.
So What's All This Got To Do With Weight Loss?
Weight loss is just one of the many benefits of restoring healthy colonic function. When your colon is clean, you assimilate what you eat. This satisfies as least some kinds of hunger--though not the kind of hunger that has non-physical roots. (See either of my free e books for details).
While the real, root causes of excess weight are clearly non-physical, cleaning your colon is something unquestionably positive that you can easily and quickly do for yourself. It's not the entire weight loss solution, or even the biggest part of it, but it's absolutely part of the process of creating a healthy, vibrant life!
