Our Intelligent Digestive System
When our intelligent digestive system senses problems, it may respond with some of these symptoms:
- Bloating, belching, grumbling, rumbling in the abdominal area.
- Itching skin.
- Not digesting your food.
- Feeling lethargic.
These are just some of the complaints one might expect to hear.
But did you know this?
- Did you know the digestive system has been called “our second brain?”
- Did you know that our digestive tract has “Neurons” in it? Thousands of them?
- Well, it is true. It is a very intelligent system within our body, that we seldom give much thought to, and take very for granted.
Our wonderful body belongs to no one but us, and for as long as we reside in it, it is our responsibility to take care of it. Going to the doctor, all the time, is not the only way to help ourselves to stay healthy.
Cleanses and Detoxes
Cleanses can rid our bodies of unwanted toxins that we pick up from daily life. By adopting the practice of cleansing and detoxing, at least once a year, we are helping our digestive system run more efficiently. Prescription drugs fill us with unwanted side effects, which are toxic to us. It becomes crucial that we begin paying more attention to our intestinal health; especially our Colon.
The air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink, is not as it used to be…fresh and pure. As more and more contaminants find their way into our body, it is our digestive system that has to figure out how to protect us from these toxins.
One way that we can take more control of our health is to do colon cleanses and body detoxes, when we feel we need to help our digestive and intestinal tract.
