How to Cleanse Your Colon Naturally at Home (Colon Cleanse Smoothie)

Your colon is home to billions of bacteria, and its functioning is important for the rest of the body to function well. Not only does it form the stool, these bacteria also absorb nutrients, control the pH balance, control hunger, and protect us from harmful organisms. 

Unfortunately, the combination of a nutrient poor diet, antibiotics, and lack of fermented product consumption has created a great problem for the good bacteria that live in our intestines. 

Whenever we have digestive problems, such as constipation, the sediments build up in your colon and stick to the walls of your intestines. This residue, along with microorganisms and other toxins, ferment and travel along the bloodstream to the rest of your body. Then gas forms and your stomach bloats.

Keeping your colon clean helps prevent several problems such as fatigue, allergies, constipation, lack of appetite, excessive weight and even bad breath.
