The colon is the main organ responsible for the absorption of essential vitamins and minerals and the excretion of waste products from the body. Today’s modern lifestyle with its associated stress, poor diet, the liberal use of medicines and laxatives and other substances plays havoc with digestive health. This often results in the impaction of stubborn waste which clings to the lining of the colon. The continuous accumulation of this “waste” hinders both absorption and excretion which leads to constipation, bloating, abdominal pains and discomfort, a general feeling of fatigue and poor health. Toxins not eliminated are reabsorbed back into the body leading to further health complications.
