THE ROLE OF THE COLON IN HEALTH









Almost every chronic disease is due to the influence of bacterial poisons diffusing into the body systems from the intestine. 95% of all degenerative disease begins in one organ of the body — the colon. It is often possible to recognize the progression of poor health and find that generally all degenerative disease can be traced back to lifestyle and a toxic colon and body. The opposing side of this argument is that by lifestyle change and beginning at the source (the colon) to restore health, one can reverse degenerative symptoms. Dramatic changes in health occur simply by following a cleansing lifestyle.

The average person eats processed foods, overcooked foods, and very little fiber. We eat way too much sugar, excessive salt, and red meat. We don’t drink enough water, we don’t exercise enough, and stress is rampant. We attempt to prevent the body’s natural cleansing processes when we are sick or uncomfortable through chemical mediation, retaining unwanted wastes. Because of these factors, tract time (or elimination time) has slowed to anywhere from 6–30 days. The colon becomes clogged with waste that starts accumulating and forming layers of encrustation on its walls. The waste material begins decomposition and causes fermentation and putrefaction, which can lead to serious health problems.

A cesspool colon “distills the poisons of decay, fermentation and putrefaction into the blood, poisons the brain and nervous system, poisons the heart so we are weak and listless, poisons the lungs so the breath is foul, poisons the digestive organs so we are in distress, poisons the body so we are unhealthy. In short, every organ of the body is poisoned. We age prematurely, the pleasure of living is gone.”


This becomes a serious colon problem as they become inflamed, ulcerated, and begin bleeding. More concerning is that they may become fistulas (abnormal tunnels) that can release putrefied, toxic fecal matter into the abdominal cavity, causing peritonitis. There is also loss of elasticity in the colon, decreasing the peristaltic action that helps eliminate waste materials..

Don't wait another day, get serious about your health and start a serious program that will transform your body.
