Your Options for Constipation: Why
Oxygen Colon Cleansing is Best
In order to prevent constipation and promote colon health, it is
recommended that one regularly cleanses the colon, small and large
intestine. This is known as ‘colon cleansing.’ As the average adult
has between 5 and 40 pounds of compacted waste in his or her bowels, a
good colon cleanse would be of great benefit. It is important to know
that all colon cleansing treatments are not equal, however.
There are five major ways that one can cleanse their colon. These
are:
- Colon Hydrotherapy (also know as colonic irrigations)
- Enemas
- Herbal supplements
- Laxatives
- Oxygen-based Cleansers
Each of these treatments has their pros and cons. For most, however,
an oxygen-based cleanser will do the best job of removing the most
toxic waste and improving the health of your colon. Let’s review each
type of treatment to find out why.
Colon Hydrotherapy
Colon hydrotherapy (also known as colonic irrigations) is the process
of inserting a tube in the anus and then flushing 1-5 gallons of water
through the colon. The procedure can be completed either at home or at
a clinic. If a colon is in a bad state of health, this process can be
effective at getting the compacted material out of the large intestine
rapidly. However this process also has a number of disadvantages.
Further, it can quickly become very expensive to go through this
treatment. It costs between $25 and $100 per treatment and will take
approximately 90 minutes of your time at each visit. Further, as the
body is not made to have water shot inside of it, it is possible for
the process to unnaturally extend the bowel and colon, potentially
causing rips or stretching the lining of the colon. While this process
will break off and flush out some of the ‘hard stuff’ on the colons
intestine wall, it in fact gets none of the dangerous toxins and
hardened material and mucous attached to the walls of the small
intestine. Much of this material will remain.
Enemas
Enemas are a treatment that has been used for many centuries to treat
constipation. Their effectiveness, however, depends on the type of
enema that is used. In general, enemas will only remove material from
the lower part of the colon and none are able to oxidize or melt away
the compaction. They are useful, however, for emptying the rectum ,
which is the lowest 8 to 12 inches of the colon. On the other hand,
many do not like having to insert the enema into their rectal cavity.
The main types of enemas are water enemas (similar to hydrotherapy
except using a bag and much less water), coffee enemas, and clay
enemas.
Herbal Supplements
You’ll find many products online and on store shelves that contain
psyllium husk. These are classified as herbal supplements and come in
pill or capsule form. Psyllium is a bulk-forming laxative and is high
in both fiber and mucilage. The laxative properties of psyllium are
due to the swelling of the husk when it comes in contact with water.
The resulting bulk when ingested stimulates a reflex contraction of
the walls of the bowel. The psyllium acts as a hard sponge as it works
it way down. This often causes an emptying of the bowel. Why herbal
supplements can be effective for short term bowel emptying, they are
not effective in fully cleansing the bowel, removing much of the toxic
waste, or improving the health of the villi in the colon. In a sense,
these types of products cause contraction but not oxidation—they do
not internally cleanse. While these products are fairly inexpensive
($20 or so for a month’s supply), persons who either want to properly
cleanse their colon or are suffering from constipation will want to
use a proper oxygen-based colon cleanser.
Laxatives
Laxatives are used as temporary treatments of constipation. While they
are often effective at clearing you out, they do not cleanse. They
don’t touch the compaction one bit. Further, there are serious
contraindications including dehydration and loss of muscle around the
colon lining. This, after hydrotherapy, is the most dangerous
treatment for constipation. If you want to treat temporary blockage, a
laxative may be helpful. If you want to experience the benefits of a
proper colon cleanse or have mild or chronic constipation, however,
they won’t be of much use to you.
Oxygen-Based Colon Cleansers
The best way to get a thorough colon cleanse is through oxygen-based
colon cleansers such as Oxy-Powder™. The only way to properly melt
away that compacted matter is through an oxidation reduction reaction.
Oxy-Powder™ uses specialized ozonated magnesium oxides to reduce the
solid toxic mass into a liquid or gas form. It works in the whole
system, not just the large intestine as the other forms of
constipation treatments. It cleans the entire intestinal tract and
delivers much needed oxygen along the way--all without the side
effects of laxatives and discomfort of enemas and hydrotherapy.
