My Balance Colon Cleanse Review

 

Our digestive health is one of the most important aspects of our wellbeing. In fact, many people see it as the foundation to having a healthy body.  You can’t argue about that, since it is with the help of this digestive system that our body is able to continuously process and absorb nutrients necessary for the survival of every single cell.

However, the digestive system is one that’s prone to many problems including constipation, bloating, diarrhea, stomach upset, ulcers, gastroenteritis, and a lot of other problems. Problems like bloating and stomachache that can be as a result of a blocked or clogged colon — the part of your large intestine that’s responsible for absorbing water and electrolytes and moving unwanted food materials out of the intestine through the rectum. This is where colon cleansing could help. It can rid your colon of unwanted toxins and improve your digestive system as a whole. However, traditional colon cleansing is said to come with risks. That’s why it is always advised you seek the attention of a medical professional before undergoing the colon cleaning procedures.

Having said that, there’s an alternative to traditional colon cleansing that involves taking oral supplements, which are made from totally natural ingredients. This method is totally safe and does not involve sending huge liters of water up your rectum to dispel toxins. Instead, it involves taking only oral supplements that are made from natural plant materials with proven properties to take care of your colon and improve your digestive health.

One of such oral supplements is My balance’s “Colon Cleanse," which is made from a proprietary blend of eleven unique herbs and plant materials that can support your body’s natural cleansing processes. They include Psyllium husk powder, Acai berry extract, inulin, slippery elm bark, Aloe ferox powder, Chlorella, Black walnut hulls powder, ginger root, hyssop leaf, papaya fruit powder, lycopene.

 

• Psyllium husk powder

The psyllium husk powder is widely used for colon cleansing around the world. It is rich in both soluble and insoluble fiber. With intake of soluble fiber, the bulk of our stool increases, which means it can be passed out via the rectum with relative ease. When ingested, the fiber-rich psyllium husk powder acts like a gel and absorbs water while moving down the intestinal tract, and in the process, absorbing waste materials and pushing them down along with stool. It is this property of psyllium powder that makes it one of the top ingredients in colon cleanse supplements.

If you are not aware, fiber is one of the top substance that promotes wellbeing of the digestive tract. A high fiber diet has been linked to reduced digestive problems including duodenal ulcers, diverticulitis, hemorrhoids, constipation, and irritable bowel syndrome.¹

 

• Acai berry extract

Stand-alone Acai berry Cleanses are so popular in the market.  They are made to support weight loss and improve overall functioning of the digestive system through dispelling waste, toxins, and reducing bloating.

 

• Inulin

Inulin is a type of dietary fiber that has been linked to aiding weight loss and improving digestive health. Inulin is a soluble fiber, and a fructan. Like with other fructans, it acts as a prebiotic. Prebiotic is the type of fiber that feeds the healthy bacteria in your gut, which are responsible for fighting infections and breaking down some food materials before they are passed out. In fact, there’s research that has shown how supplementation with prebiotics was able to reduce the risk of inflammatory bowel conditions.²

 

• Slippery elm bark

The slippery elm bark has a host of benefits to the digestive system. Some of these benefits include relieving heartburn and gastrointestinal reflux disease and fighting inflammatory bowel diseases. When mixed with water, the slippery elm bark forms a mucilage-like substance that is soothing to the gastrointestinal tract. It is this soothing effect that may help prevent the irritation and inflammation that occurs when acid backs up into the esophagus, as the case with acid reflux.

While there’s not much research that has been published online, a few have shown slippery elm bark may be able to relieve some of the symptoms associated with inflammatory bowel diseases.^3,4

 

• Aloe ferox powder

Aloe ferox is well-known for its natural colon cleansing benefits. It is a laxative that has been used to fight a host of health challenges. Particular research has shown that administration of Aloe forex to obese patients can cause significant reduction in body weight (weight loss), which may be attributed to the laxative and detoxifying action of its components.⁵

 

• Chlorella

This nutrient-dense algae had been shown to have great detoxifying properties. Studies have shown how chlorella may be able to aid the body’s detoxification processes by helping eliminate heavy metals and other harmful compounds.^6,7 The level of harmful compounds like the dioxins in the body can be easily reduced with chlorella supplementation, as particular research has shown.⁸

If you are not aware, dioxins are persistent organic pollutants that are highly toxic. Their accumulation in the body can cause cancer, reproductive problems, and interfere with the production of hormones.

 

• Black Walnut hulls powder

The powder from black walnut hulls is rich in fiber. As such, it acts as a great laxative that could aid the process of gastrointestinal functioning and detoxification.

 

• Ginger root

Ginger is no newcomer to the detox world. It is popularly used among the ingredients of most detox programs to cleanse the body of toxic waste, improve digestion of food materials, and prevent bloating. research has shown how consumption of ginger can expel the excess gases that are produced during digestion, which are known to cause serious discomfort.⁹ This is in addition to ginger being able to increase the peristaltic activity of the intestines, and thus, preventing constipation.

 

Other components of “Colon Cleanse” like the hyssop leaf (prevents intestinal gas), papaya fruit powder, and lycopene (a powerful antioxidant) can all act to promote digestive stability.
