No Food Colon Cleanse

This all natural colon cleanse is often known as a fast or detox. You use fruit or vegetable juice only (some people water down the juice to control and limit the sugar content such as people with diabetes). People do this for 1-3 weeks and hope to lose weight and detox their body.



Lots of Healthy Food Colon Cleanse

The purpose of eating a diet of fibre rich food and drinking water is get your body moving and help deal with any irregularities you are experiencing.

Fibre Foods

Eating your fibre doesn't need to be difficult. You have many options.

  • 8-10 servings a day
  • adds bulk to your waste which helps bowel movements and helps to prevent constipation and diarrhea
  • legumes, beans and whole grains
  • eat whole grains, not processed ones
  • 'enriched' often means it's not a whole grain
  • try other grains other than wheat - millet, quinoa, barley, oats, etc
  • switch the food pyramid so that fruits and vegetables are the base of the pyramid, then grains, then protein
  • add flax to your diet or try psyllium - both are excellent sources of fibre and are wheat free

    Water is an extremely important part of a healthy colon cleanse routine.
