Colon Cleanse Supplements - What Works Best

By Kym B

Colon cleansing has become extremely popular these days, and of course that much consumer demand has spurred an excited quantity of new products hitting the shelf. There are more options today for cleansing your body of harmful toxins than ever before. If you are trying to lose weight or just want to ensure that every area of your health is in good working order, then you should consider which of these options will best suit your lifestyle.

The first place most people look for a cleansing product is the health and weight loss supplement section of their local store. This makes sense, but pills are not the only option. In fact, for many people they may not even be the best option.

The first choice you have to make is whether you want to go to your doctor for a colonoscopy or stick with products you can buy off the shelf easily.

Even though you have the guidance of a trained professional if you go through your doctor, it is too invasive and expensive for most people.

Since that is a rather easy decision, the question then becomes whether you want to take a supplemental pill or go another route.

Most pills for cleansing the colon or even for the entire body are sold as a system with more than one pill to be used together. Some of the pills can be quite large. If remembering to take them at the proper times of day is not an issue and you have no issues swallowing, then this is likely to be an affordable option with a lot of products to select from.

There are many different colon cleansing alternatives for those who cannot remember to take a pill at key times or cannot handle swallowing them down.

Teas are probably the second popular form. They are preferable to anyone who will have an issue with swallowing pills which can sometimes be quite large, though you will still have to remember to drink the tea more than once a day for most products to work.

Tea tastes great and can become a relaxing, enjoyable part of your day. If you already drink this on a regular basis then it may be the best choice as it will be natural to work it in.

If you have to have immediate rewards, then an enema product could be your ideal route. This is more invasive and most people will cringe at the though of using them, but if used cautiously and not abused they can deliver more immediate results.

Once you have done your cleanse, you should include more fiber in your daily diet and try to clean up your eating habits. This will keep your body cleaned out without needing another cleanse in the short term. You may also opt to take a fiber supplement or a psyllium husk supplement before bed.

The trick to effective colon cleansing is to find something you can do without interrupting your daily life and then to use it responsibly. Great health benefits have been linked to these products, especially if you are trying to lose weight and get healthier.
