In recent years colon cleansing has become one of the most popular natural health topics. Colon cleansing has become almost popular. Colon cleansing elements are now standard issue in most diet "systems." Infomercials have made cleansing and detox household terms. Hollywood stars have known this for a long time. Losing weight and keeping energy levels require a quick trip to the health spa. The first thing you do is a cleansing diet and colon cleanse. I knew about colon cleansing ten years before I actually did my first one. Even though I knew I needed a colon cleanse I waited and waited. Like so many people I was afraid to do a colon cleanse.Who needs more diarrhea  anyway , is what I THOUGHT! If you are thinking about doing your first colon cleanse please don't wait. Here are seven good reasons to do one now.

• 1. When you do a colon cleanse you will most likely lose 2-5 pounds within a two week period. Most of that weight will be impacted feces containing toxins that were recirculating in your blood and liver. Most people who do their first colon cleanse say they felt lighter. Other people say they feel years younger.
• 2. Because you eliminate toxins from your systems you have more energy.You do not feel lethargic. Your body is not constantly recirculating the toxins in the blood and liver. Much of your body's energy is devoted to cleansing impurities via the blood and liver. Your liver makes glucose. No glucose, no energy. Your liver dumps into the colon. If the colon is not cleansed the liver and and blood can't do their jobs. Also, when the digestive tract is cleansed it is easier for nutrients to be absorbed. The body calls for less calories. Digestion of those calories takes a lot of your energy stores, especially after forty.
• 3. More clarity and focus. Many people report feeling physically lighter and mentally sharper. I can say for sure that my long term memory improved significantly. Clarity means power. Indecisiveness means inaction and being lethargic.
• 4. Improve you immune system. More than 50 percent of the immune system is located in or around and pertains to the digestive system, especially the large intestine. Because you eliminate toxins your body has more energy to fight other invaders. Nobody is doubting that there are more toxins in our environment today than fifty years ago. There are also more cases of cancers. People who cleanse on a frequent basis experience fewer colds than they have in the past. Your liver also helps you prevent disease. A clean colon helps the liver to function better.
• 5. Cleansing helps decrease and eliminate cravings for salt and sugar. In my experience with cleansing I always crave fresh fruits and vegetables more so than sugar and salt. Your body is telling you it wants to rebuild. Less impacted fecal matter leaves less for parasites and toxins to thrive on and adhere to. Many people actually experience less depression.
• 6. Cleansing also helps eliminate bad breath, acne, bloating, PMS, headaches and allergy symptoms.
• 7. Mos t cleanses cost under $30. Thirty bucks for more energy, better immunity and healthy weight loss... what a good idea!
