Natural Remedies for Losing Weight - Colon Cleansing

You might never have thought about this before - about why you have a stomach pooch (aka protruding belly), powerful food cravings or Candida infection.  And it's likely you haven't thought about this because no one really takes the time to discuss it openly.  No one discusses constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, flatulence and bloating, unless it's with their Doctor.  And for sure you would not know that internal cleansing may lighten your load considerably.
Imagine losing up to 40 pounds by just cleansing your colon and other internal organs.  Hard to imagine?  Try looking at it this way.  Everyday you clean your teeth and take a shower or bath.  Why wouldn't you also take care of business inside?  The colon is well known to be the sewer system of the body and would distinctly benefit from a good cleansing.
Just how do you know if you are having toxic waste problems?  If you are suffering from (among other things) frequent fatigue and low energy, chronic constipation, gas and bloating, bad digestion and excess weight, it's time for a colon-cleansing program.
There's a method to detoxify your body that starts with using specific herbs to clean your colon of all toxic plaque, parasites (yes, parasites that live in our bowels normally) and other debris.  While doing this, you will also have to replace good bacteria that protects the flora balance in your intestines.  This is a vital part of a healthy immune system. 
Step three in your cleansing and weight loss program would once again use herbs to detox your whole body. There are over 100 different herbs used in programs like this and can include things like psyllium husks, flax seed, fennel seed, licorice root and slippery elm bark.
Most colon cleansing programs usually come with a three-month supply of their product that definitely needs to be taken in the recommended order as detailed on the package.  If you want to lose weight with this method, you have to realize that toxins have been building in your body for years thanks to poor diets and lifestyles.  You will need to make other lifestyle changes for a continued weight loss, such as change your diet to healthy foods and increase your exercise levels.  Losing weight can be done without the exercise, but it will take a lot longer to accomplish.
Other colon cleansing programs are available that do not use herbs.  In fact one actually uses oxygen to clean the bowels.  It is usually regarded as a quick fix rather than a long-term program, but may work for people who prefer to take capsules and not make fiber shakes. 
The best thing to do if you want to lose weight by following a colon-cleansing program is to do your research and compare products.  You'll find all the information you could possibly need on the Internet.  You can also ask about these products at your local health food store.
