Colonics and Your Immune System
On average, your gut houses between 5 and 9 pounds of bacteria. If your gut isn’t healthy then you’ll have a difficult time staying healthy.
Good health revolves around the digestive system of which the colon plays a vital role. The colon is sometimes referred to as the sewage system of the body; it is the place where undigested food and waste material prepare for elimination.
Similar to the sewage system in our environment, if the colon lacks proper care and attention there will be a decline in health and illnesses will arise. Manifesting itself in the form of diarrhea, constipation, bloating and cramps just to name a few.
It is important to keep the colon clean and free of toxins. Colon hydrotherapy is one method that can be used to cleanse the colon. Colonics or colonic irrigation is a procedure where water is introduced into the rectum and allowed to flow through the colon. This will help remove any waste material that has built up in the colon over time.
Colon hydrotherapy not only helps cleanse the colon but it also helps improve overall health. It can help boost your immune system, improve digestion, reduce bloating and gas, and increase energy levels.
A healthy colon is essential for a strong immune system. The immune system is responsible for fighting off infection and disease. If the colon is filled with toxins then the immune system will be weaker and more prone to illness. Colon hydrotherapy can help remove these toxins and waste material, allowing the immune system to function more effectively.
Diet and gut health are very closely linked. Avoiding processed foods, high-fat foods, and foods high in refined sugars is extremely important to maintaining a healthy microbiome, as these foods destroy good bacteria and promote growth of damaging bacteria.
There are also a number of foods you can eat that actively promote the growth of beneficial bacteria, contributing to your overall health. These foods include:
- High-Fiber rich foods
- Garlic and Onion
- Fermented foods
- Collagen-boosting foods
A healthy gut contributes to a strong immune system, heart health, brain health, improved mood, healthy sleep, and effective digestion, and it may help prevent some cancers and autoimmune diseases.
