Why is a healthy colon so important?

The colon, along with the skin, kidneys lungs and lymphatic system is a major organ of elimination of toxins and waste. When bowel movements are not regular and efficient, the waste products and toxins accumulate and can be reabsorbed and compromise our health. Good health is as much a function of our elimination status as the quality of the food we eat. Consider the following:

• Over $400 million is spent per year on laxatives.
• The second leading cause of death in the United States is colorectal cancer.
• Over 100,000 Americans die annually from this disease.
• Some 70 million suffer from some type of bowel problem.
• 100,000 undergo colostomies.
• Topping the list of chronic illness is 40 million with Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

Periodic cleansing of the colon could prevent stagnation and minimize the exposure to potential cancer causing agents.
