Psyllium Husk Powder

Psyllium Husks are a good form of dietary fibre. As they pass through the body they turn into a gel, which expands considerably during peristalsis and helps collect the waste products. Used as part of the colon cleansing programme, the purpose of the Psyllium Husk is to help maintain healthy, efficient intestines. The powder has to be taken quickly, as it thickens very rapidly.

The Inner Self Cleanse
Since early times, Man has been aware of the importance of an inner self cleanse. Most ancient civilisations advocated a day of self-denial, or fasting. The purpose of this was to allow the body to have the opportunity to clean itself of unwanted waste materials. In our ever-evolving, high-tech existence, we tend to ignore the fundamental importance of self-cleansing. In fact, far from acknowledging that we ought to help our body to cleanse, we tend to look for the miracle treatment to correct our imbalances. However, Mother Nature will always make sure that we do things the best way for the body. For example, one of the first signs of an overburdened system is for the body to develop a temperature, or for a person to go off eating.

What is the Benefit of a Bowel Cleanse?
It is generally considered that the bowel (which contains all of the colons) is one of the most important organs for self-cleansing. Essentially, a cleanse programme will help return integrity to the bowel by removing waste matter from the digestive system. This then allows the body to digest and absorb its food more efficiently, improving the overall absorption of nutrients from food into the body’s systems.

The Importance of Water
We consider one of the most important things in a cleansing process is that you ensure that the body’s liquid levels are sufficient to allow cleansing to take place. To address this, we believe you should ideally drink 3-6 pints of purified, filtered or glass-bottled natural water, spread out evenly through the day. This will make sure that the cleanse itself will not put excess demands on an overburdened digestive system. In addition, we would recommend that you reduce your intake of wheat, dairy and salt-containing products, as well as reducing tea, coffee and soft drinks to a minimum.
