Health and Your Colon
Let's face it, talking about your colon isn't exactly dinner conversation. Because it is such a subject I'll be blunt about it. Having a proper flow to your movements is essential to maintaining good health.
Americans have the highest rate of Colon/Rectal Cancer in the world. Many leading "natural cure" doctors believe most diseases begin with constipation.
The theory is that by not eliminating the toxins from your body, they are reabsorbed by your organs and wreak havoc on your health.
Think this isn't a problem for you? If you grunt, strain, or meditate at all while going to the bathroom, chances are that you are to some degree constipated. Ideally you should have between 2 and 3 bowel movements a day.
So how do you improve the health of your colon? There are several things to keep in mind.
1. Get plenty of fiber in your diet. That's right, lots of leafy green veggies, fruits and grains.
2. Water. You should be drinking lots of water. I've always heard the 8 glass a day rule touted by doctors. I personally think a bit more than that. Sadly most people don't even drink 8 glasses per day. You should!
3. Exercise. 30 minutes of brisk walking 3 times a week will help keep things moving!
Finally, you can look into a good colon cleansing program and/or fasting (which is quicker, though needs to be regulated by a Doctor.)

As always, I recommend getting a Doctor's advice on any health related topics as everyone has their own medical history and needs the advice of their Doctor in conjunction with their own health education.
