Much of the food we eat contains chemicals: preservatives, artificial colours, pesticide residues and flavourings. Food can also be loaded with saturated fats and refined carbohydrates. These artificial compounds differ greatly from foods in their natural state and as a consequence our digestion and health may be compromised.
Symptoms that the bowel may not be functioning to its optimum level and signs of sensitivity to artificial compounds are generally seen as feeling sluggish and tired, low energy, irritability, bad breath, body odour, skin problems, headaches, loss of appetite, flatulence, infrequent bowel motions and often just a feeling of being unwell.
As research is now proving, it is being discovered that many health conditions can be traced to poor bowel health. If your body is not able to get rid of the toxins or waste in your bowel, you may not have the ability to function at your optimum level. This is why detoxifying the body regularly is so important.
