Weight Loss Tips...#3

#3 Cleanse Your Colon



We have all heard horror stories about crazy cleanses or detoxes that resulted in small alien forms being expelled from the body or the rigorous fasting juice diet that you have to do while detoxing and this scares people away from ever even trying. And those stories are probably true, at least some of them but here's the deal...not all cleanses are that extreme especially those focused toward weight loss. If you want to do a parasite or metal detox then yes, you may see some more extreme results but those just are not necessary for a good internal cleansing.



Cleanses do not have to be scary. In fact, there are many out there that are super simple. But I know you have some questions so I'll try to cover them. The answers are...




  • No, you will not be in the bathroom all day long. In fact, you will most likely only add one or two more bathroom breaks to your daily routine.

  • No, you will not have sudden urges to go to the bathroom and you should not fear any seriously embarrassing accidents.

  • No, you do not have to change your diet. It would increase the effects of the cleanse if you tried to eliminate refined foods, sugars, most carbs, and other junk but not a necessity. It would also be more beneficial if you supplemented with fiber and a flax or borage oil while doing a cleanse...but again, you don't HAVE to.

  • Yes, you will feel pretty yucky around day three. But don't stop...this is a good thing. It means all those toxins are pulled out and are swimming around ready to be expelled. You shouldn't feel so bad that you wouldn't be able to go on with your regular activities, just kind of poopie. Haha.

  • Yes, you have options. There are two brands of cleanses that I do regularly. The first one is by Body Dynamics. I like it because it can be bought in 3 day supplies so that customers can try it out before jumping in feet first. I also love that it is made to be customized. By that I mean that each individual decides for him or herself their body's need. You start with one a day and after three days you increase your dose. You continue increasing every three days until you have loose stool. Then you know that was too many and you stick to the last dosage amount. You also get to decide how long you want the cleanse to last and can even stick with it (at a small dose) to keep you regular for as long as you need. I also really like Renew Life's cl easing line. This company makes it sooooo easy. There are many to choose from depending on the need and there is one specific for weight loss. The entire cleanse comes in a nicely packaged box. You get a morning formula and evening formula, take for the required amount of time and you are done. Very simple. And Renew Life doesn't use any psyllium which can sometimes cause stomach cramping. YAY!
