cleansing

Question
Is there a way to cleanse your intestines without all of the high cost pills and powders? i would rather go the natural route also.

Answer
Eric,

You do not need to purchase expensive cleansing kits. You will need to buy some herbs however to get the most effective cleanse. Natures Sunshine offers a few simple combinations which are fairly inexpensive; just do a search and on their site you can easily find herbs for cleansing. If you live near a good health store they will also carry such products. You should be able to find a cleansing kit for $25-$30 that will do a decent job.

Herbs such as cascara sagrada and sena are key intestinal cleansers. Bentonite clay is also very beneficial. A barley grass blend is also a very good start. Marshmallow root and slippery elm will help reduce colon spasms. Make sure you drink plenty of water.

Aloe vera juice with fresh squeezed lemon is a good bowel tonic. Start with 2 ounces, once a day and see how it goes. You can increase to 4 ounces, just monitor the effects... Do not drink the whole bottle all at once! If you wish you can mix it with a fresh carrot juice and milled flax seed (1-2 tbsp per drink).

Thank you,
