Colon Cleanse Recipes - Cleansing Fruits

It’s often been said that fruits are a colon’s best friend. This seems to be true in the case of a troubled colon. If you have been experiencing symptoms of bloating or constipation, you may want to try colon cleanse recipes that involve a bounty of fresh fruit. Fruit works on two levels to stimulate movement in the colon. Not only is it extremely high in fiber, which helps to bulk up stools, but it also serves as a mild laxative that helps then move along these stools straight out of the colon, as well as out of the body altogether. This can lead to weight loss, as well as an overall feeling of lightness that increases energy levels and the ability to concentrate.

While prunes are usually mentioned as the best fruit to use in colon cleanse recipes, studies actually show that raspberries and blackberries are the best fruits to ease constipation. By downing simply a handful of berries, you can help cleanse the system and find the relief that you have been searching for. While it’s tempting to bake these in a pie, a better recipe for relief would be to drizzle a little bit of honey on them, which is a powerful laxative and also happens to go wonderfully with just about any fresh fruit.

Fruits can also be incorporated into colon cleanse recipes in the form of smoothies. One smoothie recipe that packs a powerful punch is the combination of 1 cup of yogurt, a handful of fresh fruit of your choice, a drizzle of honey, and 1 or 2 tablespoons of ground up flax seeds. This provides protein, fiber, and just the right amount of laxative action that will have your colon cleared out in no time. Both healthy and effective, simple recipes like this tend to work better than many of the colon cleansing supplements available for sale for upwards of 50 dollars.

The key ingredients in many of these supplements in fact are simply fruit extracts and high fiber, which can be accomplished just as easily and also providing nutrients in colon cleanse recipes such as the one above. This is the most cost effective and easy way to help boost your colon’s health levels, and make sure that everything in the digestive system is running as smoothly as possible. In addition, there are no dangers, side effects, or other downsides to eating fruit, unlike other supplements.

My previous habit of eating lots of junk food was making me feel very unmotivated and tired all the time. A few months ago I decided to consider colon cleansing and I am so thankful for it.
