Caring colon for a good health can be done through choosing various methods like switching to the healthy diet which consists of foods that are advantage towards colon, methods like colon irrigation (colon hydration), enemas etc.

Does Food Have Such Capacity?

Well, the answer for this query will be YES!! There are some diet patterns which can be adopted for a good colon health.

Fruits and Vegetables: We already know how much beneficial they are. These are a reliable source of fiber that keeps the colon healthy. Fiber helps the stools in forming a smoother bowel which is easy to pass through the colon and get excreted. More than the cooked form of foods, raw is recommended by most of the health consultants. Raw vegetables provide the necessary enzymes for digestion which also aid in cleansing of the colon. The cooking can destroy these enzyme molecules making them unable to take part in cleansing of colon.

Fiber Foods: As discussed earlier, the role of fiber is vital in cleansing. Whether it may be soluble or insoluble, they are required by the body. Approximately about 25-30 grams of fiber is required by the body. It makes the peristalsis normal and the ease the bowel movement comfortable. The fruits and vegetables are discussed to be a safe and excellent source for fiber. The peas, Brussels sprouts with more than 3-4 grams of fiber per half cup serving. Also kidney beans, black beans and flax seeds are excellent offering of fiber about more than 6 grams per half cup serving.

Water: Drinking adequate water ease the passing of the stools from the body i.e. the excretion. It lubricates the walls of the colon making a comfortable bowel movement. The fiber ingested by the body functions only with the help of water. The fiber absorbs the water and expands its size. Not enough levels of the water content in the body can cause constipation affects. Approximately the recommended limit is eight glasses of water for consumption. Experts also suggest checking the intake of water. More intake of water can make person urinate more times than the normal.

Probiotic Foods: The probiotic foods are vital in maintaining the colon health. The natural flora found in the guts of the colon is very essential as the body and the bacterial flora are found in a symbiotic relation. Fewer colonies of the bacterial flora can make imbalance in the ecological system. Taking probiotics foods like yogurt enhances the colonic health by increasing these colon friendly bacteria. The Lactobacillus bacteria provide the body with essential vitamins and the probiotic foods feed them making more availability of the nutrients to the body.

  4. Well I believe lot on the foods. I constantly believe the quote that we are what we eat. If we not ingest the right foods, we can suffer with lot of issues. Instead always there will be a monkey on our back. Due to change of pace in the present world many people have changed their diet to the fast and processed foods. These can satisfy buds on the tongue but can lead to long term health complications. Individuals can suffer a lot of issues related to weight, colon and cardiac. I believe these are inter related and can cause the serious illness for the person.
